It's only about 4 miles, but she does live in a nicer area
I was told that it was per condition lifetime cover, it just didnt read that way. Guy on phone was very clear that it was £5K each condition so I am sure he wouldnt lie that explicitly hehe will double check while i am getting confirmation on the wound issue. Thanks Nicola
it is 5k per condition each condition being covered for life until the limit of 5k is reached, ie if your dog has a condition that costs £500 a year to treat and another condition that costs £1000 a year to treat, they would cover the first condition for 10 years and the second for 5 years.
Premiums are postcode specific - this is normal practice within the insurance industry
so from reading this once you have reached your limit (even if it takes 10yrs) that's it,its not renewed to that amount each year? find pet insurance so confusing, mine is £5000 per year for any claims but it is renewed back to £5000 at the start off the next year. so now i don't know weather to change to heathy pets or stay with petpals
Here is a recent post i made after obtaining a quote from petpals
well petplan certainly wont be getting my business - i've just got a quote for Lucy
3 different plans available
Pet Value - up to £3,000 per condition for 12 months only £50 excess and £250 excess for 3rd party claims - £15.20 monthly
Covered for life - up to £4,000 per year £90 excess and £250 excess for 3rd party claims - £33.47 monthly you have to pay the £90 excess again for each continuing year!
Covered for life with unlimited vet fees - no limit on fees £90 excess and £250 excess for 3rd party claims - £45.61 monthly thats £473.72 a year more than Healthypets and whats more if the condition lasts more that a year you have to pay the £90 excess again for each continuing year!
so a ten year claim on the best plan, assuming the pemium remained static, which in reality it wouldn't, would cost (£45.61x12x10)+(£90x10) = £6319.20 in premiums and excess payments
Healthypets gold cover gives me £5000 per condition for life with £50 excess (one off payment per condition) £100 excess for 3rd party claims - £6.15 monthly. over ten years the premiums would be (£6.15x12x10)+£50 = £788 that leaves a difference of £5531.20 to add to the £5000 per condition before i would have paid out more than i would have under petplan
So no i won't be switching to PetPlan
