About Healthy Pets Insurance

Healthy Pets Insurance was founded in 1996 by Mark Effenberg, as Chief Executive of a pet-loving business insuring the UK's cats and dogs. Today, Healthy Pets, which was founded before Google, is an established participant in the £1 billion-plus UK pet insurance market. Based in Petersfield, Hampshire Decades on, the fact that we are a leader in online insurance and know how pet owners think gives Healthy Pets Insurance, as of 2017 part of The Ardonagh Group of companies, a distinct advantage. We talk cats and dogs, and we truly understand that pets really are members of the family. Being internet-based with a team of understanding pet specialists available over the phone, means we can offer high-quality cover at more than competitive prices. Because we are efficient, agile and specialist, and we know pets and their needs from our own experience, Healthy Pets has one of the highest renewal rates in the pet insurance industry because, in our view, whether it's the opening contact or dealing with a complex claim, we know how important it is not just to hear our customers, but to listen to every woof and meow. Mark has always been a dog owner, and it was his experiences as a "pet parent" back in the mid-1990s that caused him to establish Healthy Pets Insurance - for the simple reason that he could not find an insurer at the time who truly understood the bond between a dog and its owner, and, speaking to friends, he found it was much the case with cats too.

It was a much more affordable pet plan when I shopped around compared to one that I was previously going to purchase and this one had extra benefits too at a much more reasonable price.

I would give zero stars if allowed. This is yet another perfect example of a cowboy British business focused solely on ripping off customers and hiding behind excuses. This year’s renewal premium was over 50% on last year. On top of the extortionate fees the company is severely limiting insurance cover via unreasonable policy exemptions and is no longer competitive due to its fees and surcharges.

I received prompt payment from them when my cat Alma was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I requested a claim form when her condition suddenly deteriorated so I could have her put to sleep. I was told by the agent I spoke to at the time, and she told me that they would take the remaining policy payments off the cost of having her put to sleep. However, she passed away before I could have her put to sleep. I spoke to another agent after Alma died and she cancelled the policy straight away. I am glad that not all agents are as heartless as the first agent I spoke to.

Having insured my dog with healthy pets since 2016 and paid extra for the gold level to ensure my dog had good cover, I was appalled the companys behavior after making my first claim. My dog, at nearly 12 years old suddenly got ill and upon taking him to the vets, he underwent a scan which showed he had cancer in many places and he was put down that day. I put in my first ever claim (£1200) and was awarded £183.88 as the company decided to claim back nearly £600 for the monthly premiums I would have paid had he lived, as well as the £125 excess and additional 15% excess because of his age. Given that I was paying £62 a month, im £2.12 worse off than if id had no insurance at all which cant be right. Their policy states that they reserve the right deduct unpaid premiums not that they will do so. As a customer for many years I wasnt expecting this to happen. Other review sites suggest that this is healthy pets general practice. Therefore i suggest you insure your older pet elsewhere REPLY to Response The policy number was 0428/169050. I went through your appeals process already

We had to claim for our young dog for the first time just over a year ago and they paid out without too much hassle. It's unfortunate that they're not quick payers, therefore our vets does not accept direct payment so we had to claim back after paying the bill. They continue to be the best value for money for both our senior cat and dog so it's unlikely we will change insurers any time soon.
