Sainsbury’s offers three months free pet insurance

Sainsbury's Finance has announced that it is offering three months free pet insurance for new customers who purchase a policy by 6th October 2009, meaning they won't be charged at all for the last three months of the first year of their policy. The deal also includes a further 20% discount (until 6th October) for customers purchasing online, and £30 worth of Sainsbury's shopping vouchers for those who are claim-free on renewal.

Lucy Hunter, Sainsbury's Pet Insurance Manager, said: "Despite the increased cost of vet fees over recent years our research shows that over 450,000 people have recently given up their pet insurance in order to save money, which could leave them exposed to potentially very high veterinary bills. By introducing this offer we are trying to protect pet owners by offering them good cover at an affordable price."

Sainsbury's Pet Insurance provides up to £7,500 per condition for veterinary treatments, including up to £250 a year for behavioural problems.

Good quality pet insurance does not need to be expensive and can be found at a competitive price by shopping around. Sainsbury's Pet Insurance is designed to offer some a wide range of benefits available at a competitive price. For further information, visit sainsburysfinance.co.uk
