There was a technical issue
There was a technical issue which meant my quote couldn't be retrieved when I went back to purchase it. I called and the lady offered to arrange it over the phone, but that meant I wouldn't get my meerkcat movies. So I had to start the whole process again, and guess what, when I went back, the price had gone up. Doubt it was just a coincidence. Good price, good level of cover and nice customer service lady at the end of the phone, but not a seamless purchase experience.

Young lady answered my questions and had a friendly but professional attitude made clear what was included and what wasn’t but could mix and match certain things. Overall a pleasant and at a reasonable cost outcome would recommend to pet lovers
