RACV Pet Insurance Review

RACV is a motoring club and mutual organisation that provides a wide variety of services, including insurance, roadside assistance, car servicing and loans. While RACV offers a number of different types of insurance products, it no longer offers pet insurance to new customers.

What’s To Like?

• Simple Cover: RACV keeps it simple, with only one policy to choose from. It covers 80% of your vet bills up to a limit of $12,000 per year. You can choose an excess of $0, $100 or $200.
• Nice Extras: They throw in a few extra benefits free of charge, including $1,000 toward emergency boarding costs, 80% reimbursement for essential euthanasia, and free overseas cover when you take your pet to New Zealand and Norfolk Island.
• Discounts: You’re eligible for multi-policy discounts. That means you can save yourself some cash if you have other forms of insurance with RACV, like car insurance or home insurance. You can even get a discount for insuring more than one pet.

What To Consider

• No Paralysis Tick Cover: RACV’s policy does not include a paralysis tick benefit, which is a benefit other insurers offer.
• No Reviews: RACV is new to the pet insurance space, so there are not many customer reviews available.
• Low Value Routine Care: The “Tender Loving Care” option extends your cover to include preventative treatments like vaccinations, teeth cleaning and microchipping. But the $100 total yearly limit won’t go very far.
