Be careful when calling them up
I phoned them up to discuss my renewal. When they had a sniff that I wasn't going to renew they started on some very underhand tactics talking about other insurers wouldn't be able to help if my dog got joint issues or there was a pre-existing condition. Pretty much he was trying to put the fear into me that if I went with someone else and something happened to my dog it wouldn't be good. All true statements but to say it to try and make a sale is pretty poor. There's enough of these used car salesmen out there. Give your money to someone else.

Good morning
Thank you for your feedback
We understand your frustration with the renewal process and I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the service provided.
We strive to provide clear and transparent information to our customers, especially when it comes to potentially cancelling cover and leaving a pet with an ongoing condition and finding that there may be no cover with another provider. We certainly don't want our customers to perceive this as underhand tactics, it is simply making you aware of risks and benefits of continuing cover vs. starting again, so you, as a customer, can make a well informed decision about what is right for both you and your pet.
We will take this opportunity to review our communication practices and see where we can further improve.
Kind regards

Highly recommend for your pet insurance…
Highly recommend for your pet insurance needs. I’ve been with 4Paws for nearly 10 years and never had a problem with any claims that I have.
Most importantly when my dog was very ill and needed an MRI - 4PAWS was there to help me and guided me with regards to my claim.
Thank you so so much.

Trusted Insurers
It was a very traumatic time for us, our much loved labrador was very seriously ill. I had complete confidence in 4 Paws, they were our insurers for our last beloved dog and we knew we could trust them to not make a drama out of a crisis and would be there for us when we desperately needed them. Our claim was settled quickly and efficiently, no fuss with clear clear documentation. They are not the cheapest but when it really counts, cheapest is not always the best. You need your insurers step in and take care of your needs when something bad happens to your much loved pet.

Good morning
We are sorry to hear that you have been unhappy with the service that you have received. When taking out your policy we do ask you to contact us if you are looking to cancel the policy, there are no cancellation fees and you can cancel at any time.
Sadly, cancelling your direct debit does not cancel the contract of insurance and this will result in communication from us to check if you would still like us to cover your pet going forward, as this can often happen in error. There are a number of ways that you are able to cancel the policy, including our online portal, over the phone or via email.
Kind regards

We've insured our dog with 4Paws since…2018
We've insured our dog with 4Paws since 2018, but over the past couple of years, we've seen a shocking increase in premiums. What started as a £250 policy has now risen to over £1,200 at the latest renewal.
In those seven years, we made just one claim—for £360, which was actually less than that year’s premium. In total, we’ve paid around £4,000 in premiums, yet this extreme price hike suggests that 4Paws has little interest in insuring older dogs, even those as healthy as ours.
This became even more evident when I obtained an alternative quote for just £450. Expecting to negotiate, I called 4Paws but was bluntly told they wouldn’t lower the price at all. Instead, they simply warned me that switching insurers could mean losing coverage for pre-existing conditions—essentially leaving me with no choice but to accept their inflated pricing.
It's disappointing to see a company price out loyal customers, especially responsible pet owners who have made minimal claims.

Good morning
I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with your renewal quote.
Please be aware there are several factors that contribute to each renewal quote we provide, such as your pets age or the cost of vet fees in your local area, both of which as you know have increased over the last 7 years. Whilst claims can impact a policy price. Currently we consider claims made within the last 2 years when calculating your quote. One of the most important factors we must consider is the length of time your policy has been active. This allows us to assist with treatments and claims that are relating to the 7 years of medical history that has accumulated whilst your policy has been active with us.
As my colleague confirmed when you contacted us. When purchasing a new policy, it is common to lose cover for medical history that is dated from before the start of a policy. This is considered ‘Pre-existing’ by most pet insurance providers, including us. This loss of cover, as well as differences within the policies, and introductory discounts, can often lead to the difference prices being offered to you, which is what you have witnessed.
We believe in providing an accurate and honest price to all customers, this allows customers to make an informed decision, knowing whether they contact us or not, the quote they received from us was the best price we can possibly offer in order for you to benefit from continuation of cover.
If you wish to discuss this in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards

Good Morning Patrick,
I am so sorry to hear you are unhappy with your experience with us.
This really doesn't sound like us, as for any payments we collect, you are only ever required to pay for your time that your pet has had cover with us and anything beyond this, we will refund back to you.
Sadly, I am unable to locate your policy to investigate this further for you. Please can you call us on 01423 535 040 or email at PetClaims@JigsawInsurance.com and we will look into this and see what we can do to help.

Dishonest and Misleading Renewal Practices
I am extremely disappointed with 4Paws and their misleading practices. A few weeks ago, I received a renewal notice quoting my annual premium as £426, with the email stating, "For information, last year’s equivalent premium was £403." This suggested an increase of only 6%, which seemed modest and reasonable. On this basis, I decided to remain with them and did not feel it necessary to obtain alternative quotes, trusting that the information provided was accurate and transparent.
However, today I received the renewal paperwork in the post, and the quoted £426 translates to £36 per month. This is significantly higher than the approximately £27 per month I have been paying, equating to an actual increase of 33%! This means the renewal letter completely misled me into believing the increase was far smaller than it truly was.
I strongly object to companies that rely on deceptive communication to retain customers. It is unacceptable for 4Paws to misrepresent information in this way, especially given the already rising costs of pet insurance.
I have since moved to a different provider and would advise others to review their renewal offers carefully before deciding to stay with 4Paws. This is a company that clearly cannot be trusted.

Good afternoon,
Thank you so much for leaving us this review, we really appreciate it.
I am sorry to hear you are unhappy with the renewal invitation we had issued to you. We pride ourselves on our honesty and strive to make things as clear as possible for our customers, especially when it comes to their premiums quoted at renewal.
The renewal invitation will show the premium quoted for the upcoming year but also last year’s premium before any discounts and our administration fee have been applied. If you have received a first year or multi pet discount, this is shown as part of the premium breakdown which is included in your policy documents.
We are continually looking into ways which we can improve our communications and really do value your feedback. We would be more than happy to discuss this in more detail so please don’t hesitate to contact us on 01423 535040 or email our renewals team at petrenewals@jigsawinsurance.com should you require any further assistance with this matter.
