Why has my pet insurance claim been rejected?
The owner has claimed for something that isn’t covered and so the claim has been rejected.
There are different types of pet insurance policies available that include: Accident Only, Time Limited, Maximum Benefit and Lifetime. Depending on the policy you choose, there will be a limit on what you can claim for, and this can result in claims being refused.
Most UK insurers do not cover pets with pre-existing conditions. Much will depend on how the insurer defines existing conditions and what information you gave to them.
Pet insurance will often not begin until after the first 14 days of your policy. This is known as the “exclusion or waiting period”.
There are a number of treatments that most insurers will not cover, including vaccinations, spaying, neutering and pregnancy-related issues.
Dental cover is not always included as standard in pet insurance policies.
Some insurers have limits that won’t allow you to get cover for older pets.
Most insurers will not cover pets used for commercial purposes. That includes security, track racing, breeding and more.
Details on your pet are not up to date.
A claim might be rejected due to the meaning of key words in the policy, such as ‘condition’ or ‘treatments’.
