It's not worth hammering the insurance for £165 tbh.

Virtually everything with the alasatian is linked to the diabetes. The vet is happy to put everything through as a continuation.
They put her insurance premium up 20% in October just gone and she was only 2 with no claims or pre existing conditions.
If its just a couple of quick follow up visits I don't want to make it a ridiculous rise this October.
Big changes on the way ! We've heard it before but it's different this time !!!! , I believe Bdo gonna grow x

I've claimed the maximum on both dogs so my payments are only going 1 way.

The bandage is now pink after a change at the vets today. Only charged me £22.
Back in on Friday. Healing nicely apparently.

Petplan.
Never had to claim so can't comment on the process beyond them taking money off me every month.

They are a hell of a lot cheaper than other firms, My premium on our dog went up 9% this year and he is 5 years old which I thought was ok
