At first renewal price had increased by exactly 100% despite no claims having been made and additional excess of 20% of vet fees to be paid by me. I phoned to query this and was told that I got a 20% discount for first year and that the animal was now over 8 years old and vet fees have gone up astronomically. When I queried that it was odd that the increase was exactly 100% they offered me a discount of around 20%. Strange how they could do that yet not offer it to me with the renewal notice. I suspect they were hoping I wouldn't notice. Very dubious business practice and getting far too common amongst insurance companies. Found much better quotes online. Will not use them again... I think that the office of fair trading should investigate them along with insurance companies behaving in a similar manner.

We had exactly the same. They doubled the price the second year and they sneakily quadrupled it in the third, not one claim made with them ever. The dog is only three years old.
