What pet parents say about Petbarn Pet Insurance

Elaine S Pet Barn were excellent. I’ve insured all 3 dogs with them since birth and when my dog had a life threatening injury they gave pre-approval at the time he was admitted to hospital which allowed me to make an informed decision at the time. As it turned out they paid more than my entitlements under my policy but they honoured it anyway. When dealing with a very sick animal it was very comforting to know they honoured their promise and there was no additional cost to me - this is a high integrity company. Highly recommend.

Jo C. They are scammers beware – They’re running a scam here. I called twice about changing the level of cover and every time they told me that I need to call back because they somehow can’t change it at that particular time. Now I need to call back a third time between 2-3 weeks before my policy renews. The customer service rep just kept repeating the words renewal and told me that the renewal will take place next month so I need to call back. Absolute scammers. Was also on hold for 30mins.

Syed Z. Petbarn Insurance – Hi all randomly posting here to raise awareness. Attention to all considering signing up with Petbarn Insurance or investing in their top-tier cover, Petbarn’s Total cover, touted as the highest level of coverage with extensive accidental injury and illness cover. It's imperative to be vigilant, as this coverage falls short of its promises. Despite the enticing description, the reality is far from satisfactory. The policy's claim schedule, which they refer to, offers limited coverage with limited gap cover, leaving pet owners with significant out-of-pocket expenses.

Tim K. Not worth the premium – Paid around $1600+ over the past few years to them, every time I make a claim it will be either declined because of some exclusion clause or the reimbursement is so marginal it becomes obsolete, all that for basic treatments when my cat is sick. Total of $2500 in expenses ($1600 in premiums & $900+ vet fees) with $220 reimbursement. What a joke.

Mary Petbarn was good until they raised their premiums by more than 23%! – I've been with Petbarn since 2018, since then my premium has increased significantly despite making very little claims. This year alone they want to increase my premium by a staggering $200+, making it a 23% increase. I understand that my pet is one year older and inflation will affect the price, but inflation is nowhere near 23%! Unfortunately because of this I have decided to cancel my policy as it makes more sense to set aside money and cover any vet bills myself as they are usually less than $200, rather than paying for pet insurance AND excess on top!

Randhi Poor communication and poor customer care – Poor communication by customer service. I called to cancel the policy last November (2021) and they offered me a waiver for three months before cancelling and I accepted. They have charged me for the next consecutive three months after the waiver and when I called to inquire they said I was meant to call again and cancel again at the end of three months. Which I wasn't told the first time. They refused to refund. When I tried to explain this all I got was "I understand but *repeat the same thing over and over*. Very disappointing.
