Absolutely brilliant

Absolutely brilliant, it was so straght forward and very competitive with other companies I looked at.
The cover is life time which is great for me. My Dog is a pedegree and the cover is great. It gives you different options to choose from for which suits you and your pet best.
Very happy 😊

Good priced and quick to set up

Fairly easy to set up and support was excellent when I got stuck with arranging multiple policies. Would be better if I could have a single login for the portal rather than one for each pet.

Swinton Pet Insurance - Stay clear

Swinton tried every angle and delaying tactic possible not to pay out on our claim.
We have used multiple pet insurers over many years but none as bad as Swinton.
Stay well clear.
Update: The response to my review from Swinton below just provided a link to their basic contact page so was of no help to me whatsoever. I immediately cancelled my policy.
