Avoid at all costs Avoid at all costs. They are not interested in keeping customers. I was with 4Paws for 2 years with 2 dogs and at the most recent renewal they hiked my price up by £240 for one of my dogs despite never making a claim. I decided that the level of cover I had was no longer necessary so decided to reduce my cover to save on costs. They were happy to do this but insisted I take out a new policy, despite being with them for 2 years meaning that for 14 days my dog wouldn’t have been covered. Absolutely disgraceful. Needless to say I cancelled my policy and have gone elsewhere.

5+ weeks to wait I made a claim in August. Because of a few house moves, it took them until November to to get all the info they needed. Well it’s 15th December, so 5+ weeks after their last correspondence and I’m still waiting for settlement. What’s the claim for? - The fallout of an infection for my dog getting bitten on the back. Not a difficult diagnosis or complicated task one would think for a payout. I will wait for my settlement and then cancel this shambles of an insurance provider.

This company are absolutely f***ing… This company are absolutely f***ing rubbish. Unfortunately I'm stuck with them because I was with them when my dog had a cancerous lump removed otherwise I would have left them long ago! Still haven't settled my claim from August when said dog had an operation to remove 3 lumps which turned out to be benign. Now they're trying to say I need to make 3 separate claims for each lump because they were different types of benign, meaning they want me to pay my excess 3 times and lose out on at least £350 even though they were removed in one operation! Absolutely disgusting.

Premium increased almost 200% in two years then difficulty cancelling. Premium increased from £17 a month, to £31 and then to £51. When I provided my policy number and indicated that I wished to cancel the policy they refused to do so without the email address I had provided two years ago. They assured me that I would receive a phone call to address the issue which wasn't forthcoming. I had to cancel the direct debit.

Whoops, why did I get insurance with these? Whoops! Now, I've done it. I got pet insurance through 4Paws and didn't spend enough time reading reviews. Here's the true story: After waiting 5 weeks, sending 2 emails of complaint in that time and having three long-winded phone calls with staff who seemed very unsure of their job (but always seem to work in an office where nobody is actually in charge 'there are no managers in today') we finally -after 5 weeks - had our claim settled. Awful service. I dread to think what they will do to my premiums now I have claimed. Avoid this company like the plague.
