Misleading prices advertised
Easy to use but misleading price examples. Insurance for African Pygmy Hedgehogs claimed to start from £4/month but actual price is over £15/month - and this is for a 3 month old, perfectly healthy,...

Thank you for taking time to leave us this feedback. We are very sorry if you felt that the price you saw advertised was in anyway misleading. I’d like to confirm that we currently offer three tiers of insurance cover for animals like your African Pygmy Hedgehog: ‘Vet Fees, Death & Theft’ cover, ‘Vet Fees Only’ cover and also ‘Death & Theft’ cover. These different levels of cover do cost different amounts. The value of your animal can also affect how the insurance premium is calculated: If you were to apply for our ‘Death & Theft’ cover, with an animal that you’d paid around £200 for, then it’s highly likely that our system would be able to offer you insurance cover for these risks at the £4.35 p/month – the price which I believe you saw advertised.However, if you selected a higher level of cover, or if your animal is worth more, then a higher premium would then be payable. We did try and call to discuss this with you in more detail, but haven’t yet been able to have a full conversation with you. If you would like to discuss this matter in more detail or simply switch to a lower level of cover in order to reduce your premium – please do call us on 0345 982 5505 and we’ll be very happy to chat through everything with you. Our contact centre is open Monday – Friday, between 09:00 and 17:15.Hopefully this information has helped to answer your question. If we can be of any further help or assistance, please do get in touch.Best regards,The Exotic Direct Pet Insurance Team

I am only receiving cover for vet bills (middle tier). The lowest tier of cover for my pet was still considerably more than £4/month and only covers death and theft and not vets bills (which surely is the thing that most people want cover for - it's certainly the reason for me taking out insurance.)
And the reason I haven't spoke to you in more detail yet is because you were asking for all of my personal details over the phone, which I wasn't happy giving out....plus trying to home school, so please don't make it sound like I've been unwilling to talk to you, as we discussed me calling you back so that a) I could choose a suitable time and b) I could verify who I was talking to.
This didn't have to be such a big issue - I was just making the point that the prices advertised are very, very low and I'm unsure who would qualify for that low price, as I can't see why I'd have bigger premiums...….so therefore misleading.

Thank you for these additional comments. I can confirm that your feedback about the prices shown in our adverts has all been passed over to our improvements team and they’ll review our marketing to make sure that the information displayed is both correct and appropriate.
Unfortunately, without asking security questions we are not able to discuss customer polices or feedback over the phone. However, we are sorry if you feel that this has caused a further complication, or if the wording we used in our original reply was not to your satisfaction.
If you have any further feedback for us, we’d be very happy to discuss this with you over the phone. Our number is 0345 982 5505 and we’re open Monday to Friday, between 09:00 and 17:15.
