Switching Providers: How to Move to CoverB Without Losing Cover

Is the Grass Greener?

Maybe your current insurer has raised their prices for 2026. Maybe their claims process is too slow, or you’ve found that CoverB offers better “Wellness” benefits. Whatever the reason, you’ve decided to switch.

Switching pet insurance in dubai is entirely possible, but if you do it wrong, you could end up with “gaps” in your coverage. Here is how to make the move to CoverB safely and smartly.

The Gold Rule: Never Cancel Before You’re Covered

The biggest mistake you can make is canceling your old policy before your new one is active.

1. Apply for pet insurance with CoverB first.
2. Wait for your 14-day illness waiting period to end.
3. Then cancel your old policy. This ensures that if your pet gets sick on Day 10 of your new plan, you can still claim from your old provider.

Understanding the “Pre-Existing” Reset

When you move from Company A to CoverB, your pet’s health history doesn’t “reset.” Any claim you made with your previous insurer will now be considered a “pre-existing condition” by the new one.

• Should you still switch? Yes, if the new plan offers better limits on future accidents, or if the overall service is better. Just be aware that any ongoing treatments will likely not be covered by the new policy.

Timing Your Switch

In the UAE, most people switch at their renewal date. If you cancel mid-year, you might have to pay a cancellation fee or lose your “No Claims Discount.”

• The CoverB 2026 Bonus: If you are switching to us and can prove 12 months of “No Claims” from your previous insurer, ask our team about our “Safe Switcher” discounts!
