Good morning Jane
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this amazing 5-star review.
It means the world to us here at 4Paws when we make our customers claim journey as easy as possible. As pet owners ourselves we understand how worrying it can be when your furry friend is unwell, therefore we aim to make the claiming process as easy and stress free as possible.
We hope Piper is feeling much better.
Should you need us again in the future, please reach out.
Have a lovely day.

Slow response when submitting a claim
Completed a pre-authorisation request which was approved in good time and confirmed they would agree 1 of 2 of the claims. Operation took place on 3 weeks ago and received confirmation on the 25/09/24 that my claim has been received - but nothing since.. Chasing a response for reimbursement. Our eldest dog is 9 years old and this is the first time we've submitted a claim for insurance so no prior experience if this is the usual wait time but would have hoped pre-authorisation would have sped things up!

Good morning Sarah
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review.
We are sorry to hear your pet is unwell and you are needing to claim. Here at 4Paws we want to do all we can to support you when you need us most.
In terms of our pre authorisation service that we offer. We process these within 48 hours of receipt, should all the information be received. This is in order to give you confirmation that treatment will be covered, prior to this going ahead.
In regards to our claim's process, we look to process all of our claims within 5-10 working days of receipt, should all the information we require for the claim be received.
I am unable to locate your policy from the details provided in order to give you a real time update, however if you would like to give us a call on 01423 535040 one of our claims advisors will be able to provide you with a update on your claim.
We hope to speak to you soon and be able to get your claim resolved for you.

Dishonest, Manipulative, and Exploitative – Stay Away from 4Paws! Epically New Pet Owners & those with a Disability!
I’ve never been so disgusted by a company’s practices. 4Paws Pet Insurance has proven themselves to be unethical, dishonest, and entirely untrustworthy. I strongly urge anyone thinking of using them to stay far away.
I took out insurance for my 14-week-old kitten, and they’ve done everything possible to avoid paying out on a valid claim. First, they tried to retroactively change the start date of my policy to weasel out of covering my kitten's condition. Then, they shifted their excuses to claim he wasn’t covered because I hadn’t yet brought him home when I took out the policy —something they never made clear when I signed up and is actually untrue in their own policy wording. Their terms are deliberately vague and misleading, designed to leave you uncovered when you need help most.
What makes this worse is that 4Paws knew about my disability and memory issues from the start, asking me whether I had any disabilities under the guise of trying to be helpful and accommodating, yet they shamelessly used this against me. They gaslit me into believing I was in a 14-day waiting period, which wasn’t true, and two separate staff members fed me the same lie, insisting I was mistaken. Their treatment was not only stressful but potentially life-threatening for my kitten, as they delayed his much-needed care with their manipulative tactics. And if I hadn't pursued it further I would have been left thinking my pet was uncovered. I wonder how many other people they have tricked with this same method and left their pets lives at risk.
If you have a disability, steer clear of this company. They will take advantage of your vulnerability and twist the situation to their benefit. 4Paws has no integrity, no compassion, and no respect for their customers.
I will never use them again, and I hope this review spares others the same nightmare. Avoid 4Paws at all costs—your pet’s life might depend on it!

Hi Hannah
Firstly I would like to offer my apologies that you are unhappy with the service you have received from us here at 4Paws.
I can confirm following our previous conversation, we have explained the reasons why we are sadly unable to cover your recent claim for your Kitten Hector following a referral to your underwriter and provided you with options.
In relation to you feeling like you were not made aware of specifics when you signed up for the policy, this was purchased online and you have to agree with the assumptions before purchasing any policy with us but, we always welcome all of our customers to call our team to discuss anything they may be unsure of.
I am sorry you feel we are using your disability against you, this is not our intention. We ask all of our customers if they have any vulnerabilities in order for us to make any amendments to our service or communication. In order to treat all of our customer fairly.
We cannot make decisions on whether your pet is not to have treatment at any time. This is for you to discuss with your veterinary practice.
I can confirm you will shortly receive your Final Decision in relation to your complaint, which will detail our full response.
Kind regards
Chloe

The company refused to pay out on a Dental Claim
The company refused to pay out on a dental claim for my dog because he needs to be muzzled at the Vet surgery. Usual references to the Policy even though the vets stated that they were unable to look at the dogs teeth on his regular yearly check up. Read the small print if you do take out a Policy...

Good afternoon Andy
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
We are sorry that you are not happy that your claim for your pet has been rejected.
From looking into your policy, I can see the reason you claim was rejected was due to Spot not having a dental check-up. Please allow us to refer to our Policy Terms and Conditions - SECTION 1A - Veterinary Fees
What we will not pay:
33. Any dental treatment or complementary treatment unless your pet had a dental examination carried out by a vet in the 12 months before the clinical signs of the injury or illness were first noted and you provide evidence of the dental examination.
Whilst I appreciate your claim outcome was not what you was hoping for, we need to ensure all claims are assessed in line with the Policy Terms and Conditions.
If you wish to discuss this further with a member of our team, please give us a call on 01423 535 040 and we will be able to look into this further for you.
Kind regards

Excellent!
Unfortunately, my dog has a life long condition and so this is not our first claim on this policy. As always though, a very swift and painless process to make the claim. I just fill out my party of the claim form, my vet does the rest and sends on to the insurers and then a very prompt claims settlement. Cannot fault them and when we get another dog will not hesitate to insure with 4 paws!

Hello,
Thank you for leaving us a review.
It really does mean the world to us when our clients are very happy with the claims process.
I am sorry to hear you are unhappy with the cost of your premiums. Prices are likely to gradually rise over the years – we do consider Bailey’s claims history and health when we calculate the costs of your premiums. We also use lots of other rating factors like your pet’s breed, age or the costs of vet fees in the area you and Bailey live.
I hope this information helps. However, if you do require anything further, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
We hope Bailey is doing well.

And finally....
Sadly, my fur baby passed this weekend. 4paws has been sympathetic and explained that I can make a claim for the final bills at,any time. They made it easy to cancel. They also always answer the phone whenever I've needed to clarify something.
Over the course of our two years with our rescue bun we had one claim rejected due to a technicality but thankfully it was a smallish bill.
Thinking about just how much all his bills added up to I'm guessing at least £3000 over just two years so my monthly premium was definitely worth it.
I'm really glad we chose 4paws.
Thanks guys.
