Frequently asked questions

What does Whistle and Wag cover?+

Whistle and Wag provides pet cover within pet, with limits set at £1,000-£5,000 per condition each year. The per condition yearly structure helps match ongoing vet needs against the chosen tier. Check policy terms for exclusions and renewal terms before arranging cover for household pets.

What excess applies to claims?+

Excess starts at £99 per claim route described in policy documents. The amount payable depends on the selected tier and pet details supplied at quote stage. Review the excess alongside £1,000-£5,000 per condition each year to gauge total outlay when vet bills arise during the policy year.

From what age can pets be covered?+

Cover is available for pets past Over 4 weeks, as stated in FAQs. This early entry helps arrange protection soon after arrival home. Provide accurate birth details at quote stage and check breed terms, since underwriting still applies across pet for every new policy submitted.

How do claims work?+

Claims are handled through online portal, giving a central route for forms and updates. Prepare vet invoices and policy details before starting the submission online. Support through email, phone and help centre can guide on documentation where the portal wording feels unclear during a live claim.

Can premiums be paid monthly?+

Yes, Monthly payments are supported, with billing structured around monthly to spread cost across the year. This helps manage household budgets without paying the full term upfront. Confirm direct debit dates at checkout and check whether changes to cover affect the monthly amount due.

Who operates Whistle and Wag and how is it regulated?+

Whistle and Wag is operated by Trusted Insurance Services Ltd and authorised under 831252 by the Financial Conduct Authority. The setup is listed as broker, so policies are arranged rather than underwritten in house. Contact via email, phone and help centre for queries on cover and administration.
