Simply, Easy, Fast and Approved – We completed the sign up online, which was very easy to follow. Real Pet Insurance confirmed our cover on the same day and have been great with communication ever since. We also completed an additional form the following day, which was approved within 24hrs. I must state that the cover we took out is great value for money for our new puppy, which… Read more · 1

We LOVE Real Pet Insurance – This pet insurance is the only insurance we pay for that we have actually got something back for. When our dog was young we didn't need to use the insurance but now that he is older, lots of things are covered - it's wonderful! Show details · 1
Very helpful! Made the application process very easy – Thanks to Josh for making the process very smooth sailing, he was very polite and was happy to answer any questions I had. In terms of the plan only time will tell, being my first pet and my first time getting insurance. Josh did well to explain everything and made sure I knew what I was signing up for, appreciate the effort and the time he put in. Show details · 1

Good! – Had an emergency visit to the vet after my dog (insured for 12 years) became lame during our walk. Not sure what happened - insect bite? Did claim by mail, not processed straight away as I had to contact vet again requesting consultation notes. Claim was then processed quickly. Show details · 1

Great service for claims – We had an emergency trip to the vet recently with high costs. Lodging the claim was very easy (much easier than car or house insurance) and I received the payment promptly. I was impressed with the whole process. Show details · 1
Excellent service and so prompt! – It was very easy to claim and this was our first claim. It took less than a week to resolve my claim. I have only been with this company for less than 12 months. Show details · 1
Quick and easy to claim – We were very satisfied with our last claim. Our 18 month old dog was hospitalised for four nights which wasn't cheap. Once he was home, we submitted the claim to Real and the payment was in our bank within a week. Show details · 1

Always good service I think – I am not sure that my claim has been finalised. My correspondence said that my claim had been divided into 2 parts. Only 1 part had been finalised as far as I could see. I have been waiting for further correspondence. In regard to the first part of the claim, I thought that the claim was dealt with in a very timely manner and communication was excellent.

I consider myself lucky to have chosen the best – At first, ten years ago, I didn't need to use my policy much at all. As my boy has grown I have needed the assistance of my policy more frequently. Thank goodness I chose REAL. Claims are simple and are acted upon promptly. I am impressed and would recommend REAL Pet Insurance to anyone who needs Pet insurance. Show details · 1

Easy claim, quick payment – Online claim process was straightforward and payment was received in a few days. Only thing that was confusing was requirement for vet notes on the online portal but my vet would not release them to me - only direct to insurer. Show details · 1
Reliable and helpful, literally a life saver for our dogs – RPI has been reliable and literally a life saver for 3 of our dogs over the last 9 years. Claims are easy to submit and are processed quickly, call centre staff are really helpful on the phone when needed. We are relieved that we can tell our vet to apply whatever tests and treatments are needed to help our beloved dogs get back to full health,… Read more · 1
knowing we are covered for up to 80% of the costs. We have had some scary close calls and thankfully this insurance has helped us through.
Easy to apply for, quick and cheap – I've only just ordered it today so there's not much else I can say. I applied for home and contents insurance at the same time 5 more words to get to 30. Show details · 1
Claim nightmare – **RPI is great for value and simple to get started, we were with Pet Insurance Australia but changed as their prices went up alot higher. Our girl is 17mnths and has had 3vet visits not including vaccinations etc. Our first claim with RPI was last month and is taking so long to process. They do not make it easy and have palmed the claim off as… Read more
pre-existing and routine care which it most definitely is Not. Not only has it stumped myself but also our vet who has had to email them consultation notes 3x now to have the claim reviewed. Think twice before changing to them as claiming is extremely difficult and is not quick. **Since writing review claim was reassessed again and claim accepted. Not a pleasent first claim experience but it has been resolved and they now have all of our girls health visits on record, hopefully that makes the next time around abit smoother.
Peace of Mind – I have been with Real Ins for about 9 years approx. I couldn't be without it...as my dog is getting older she has had a few more visits to the vet and Real cover a large portion of the cost. The claims are settled quickly and easily. I would highly recommend!! Show details · 1
