Frequently asked questions

What does ASDA Pet cost to start?+

Premiums start at £7.95 and Monthly payments is yes, so you can spread the cost across the year. Your quoted premium varies with pet characteristics and cover options selected. Check the starting figure alongside excess and annual limit to judge value for your household budget.

How much vet cover do you get each year?+

Cover reaches GBP 10,000 per year on lifetime terms, which refreshes each policy year subject to terms. That structure helps with ongoing vet bills rather than single incidents alone. Review what sits inside the annual limit, including exclusions and waiting terms, before you commit to cover.

What excess applies to claims?+

Excess sits at £100 to £250, so you pay that agreed share toward each valid claim. Higher excess choices can lower premiums but raise claim costs. Compare excess levels carefully against premium and annual limit to find a balance that suits your spending comfort.

Which pets can join and is there an age cap?+

Eligibility follows 8 weeks - no upper age limit, which welcomes young pets and places no upper age cap on entry. That breadth suits owners of older animals seeking lifetime protection. Confirm breed eligibility and health questions at quote stage, as cover terms still apply to senior pets.

How do you claim and get support?+

Claims run through online and phone, giving a choice between digital submission and speaking with the team. Support runs through email, phone and help centre for policy queries and help with documents. Keep vet invoices and treatment notes ready to help progress pass smoothly.

Is ASDA Pet an insurer and is it regulated?+

ASDA Pet acts as broker under broker, arranging cover rather than underwriting risk itself. It holds Financial Conduct Authority authorisation under 306164 in Great Britain. Always confirm the underwriter details in policy documents and understand how broker service differs from insurer service.
