Re: Pet Insurance?

Cover also starts if you buy online at the time of sale BUT the lifelong policy is different to the free one. Unless they overlap by the required period you aren't covered - unless you just continue the free one (which is, I think, a 'per condition' policy). Been there - got caught.

Yes, it would.
