'People comfortable with online pet insurance'

Posted : 06-08-2007

Using the internet to buy insurance products is a "growing trend" and is becoming more popular, a provider has claimed.

According to Sainsbury's Bank, people are "comfortable" using the web to find a pet insurance quote and can provide more choice for those looking for the most suitable deal.

The financial services group said it is seeing a "steady increase" in the number of people going online for insurance products and it is becoming a more competitive market.

And according to Sainsbury's Bank's communications manager Natasha Virtue, consumers can also use the internet to shop around and find the best deal.

"We're actually encouraging people to seek four quotes if possible, because the more you can shop around, the better deal you're likely to get," she said.

As with most types of cover, the cost of pet insurance can depend on various factors such as the breed and age of the animal.
