When you’re looking to arrange cheap dog insurance, do you prefer to ring up companies using the telephone to get quotes rather than going online?
If so, you could be barking up the wrong tree when it comes to getting cheap dog insurance and paying more than you should be.
Here are some good reasons to look online for dog insurance quotations.
Savings are passed on to you
When you browse and pay for your policy online, you’re more likely to get cheap dog insurance because of the lower overheads involved.
Rather than have to pay call centre staff to take your order over the phone, it’s cheaper and more convenient for the insurance company to let you order and pay online.
This saving is then passed on to you as the customer and you’ll probably have noticed that most insurance companies now offer online discounts.
Save time
Waiting on the phone to enquire about cheap dog insurance quotes can test anyone’s patience if the companies involved don’t have enough people to handle their call volumes.
If you look online for pet insurance instead, you can see very quickly how much each policy costs and what is and isn’t included.
Doing this three or four times in a row over the phone will not only take longer but could also end up costing you more.
You can still call to ask any questions
Just because you look online for cheap dog insurance doesn’t mean you can’t then call anyone up to ask a specific question.
It’s not always possible to cover every individual circumstance by providing online information so you may want to make a quick call to put your mind at rest before you go ahead and order your cheap dog insurance online
Easy access to documents
Many online insurance companies will email you a copy of your cheap dog insurance policy as well as sending you a hard copy. This can be beneficial if for example you’re on holiday with your dog and need to make an enquiry or a claim.
Take the savvy approach to finding cheap dog insurance for your pet by browsing online for competitive quotes.
Remember though not all dog insurance providers take part in price comparison sites so you might find the best deal by going direct to a company you already know and trust.
