Petchip Reviews

Scammers and low-lifes

Woke up this morning 16 October to find an email for this bunch of low lifes Have advised my vet to warn other owners of these rip-off merchants One thing that does concern me is how they got my dog s name and microchip number Were my details passed on by the company my dog is registered with or from my vet very doubtful I ve 4 dogs and the oldest is nearly 11 and have never been asked to pay to re-register which is how I figured it was a scam attempt

This company is not a DEFRA approved database

This company sent me an email with my German Shepherd s Stan chip number saying it was no longer valid and I needed to pay to have him re-registered I foolishly paid 18 95 before checking Trust Pilot I then realised he was already registered with Smart trace from birth Fortunately I put in a complaint and got a full refund through PayPal How is this company allowed to commit such fraud According to smart trace this company is not a DEFRA approved UK database This company needs investigating before someone else gets scammed Also how on earth have they managed to get my dog s actual chip number and my details There s been a data breach some where

SCAM

Got the below email today this is a total SCAM just called my Vets to check all ok they have confirmed that my dogs microchip is absolutely fine and never requires to be renewed This company should be ashamed of themselves panicking people to part with hard earned cash Hello Our records indicate that your microchip registration for has expired microchip number will soon display unregistered animal in all affiliated websites and databases If you have a different pet with a microchip you would like to enroll please take advantage of our special promotions for return pet keepers

SCAM

Had email as in all other reviews stating my pets registration had expired They had my pets name but wring micro number 1 digit short I emailed them stating it was a scam Here s their reply Your ignorance is blatant based on your claims Microchips themselves do not expire but the registration does Our service requires an annual fee you not wanting to pay for it hardly makes it a scam The only thing that will be reported is your theft of service and false slander Told them to go ahead and report me Despicable company BEWARE

Horrible company

I recur notification to pay another fee otherwise my pets microchip will become unregistered I have requested someone to contact me but as yet I have not received a response I do not understand why I have to keep paying every year Does anyone know how I can check if my cats microchip still has my details registered

Petchip info is a total scam

This company is a total scam 2 years ago when I bought my puppy with a microchip I mistakenly went to this website to register my details as the new owner Last week I was contacted to renew my registration for another fee otherwise my dog would display as unregistered animal I know that you do not have to renew to keep details on the database Its not the fact that I was scammed out of the initial 18 but that my dog has been unregistered on the proper database all this time I have now rectified this but please anyone who has had contact with this company check your pet is on the official database ie PETtrac

SCAM SCAM SCAM

Just a repeat of existing reviews This is a total scam but works in that the info they send you is accurate including contact pet details It s a modest amount 18 95 so many will pay without a second thought Please just ignore their corrupt email and let s hope the owners operators of this scam come to a dreadful end Registration of pet microchips is FREE

SCAM just like the other reviewers

SCAM just like the other reviewers below have discovered Petchip is NOT a DEFRA approved microchip database Like others I am concerned that they quoted correctly my pet s microchip no and also my home telephone no now defunct I have spent time today trying to make sure my dog is correctly registered with Identibase in my case They advised me to deregister with Petchip but personally I do not want to go anywhere near them

Petchip are scammers

I registered my dog for 18 A year later they took another 18 I did some investigating and found that she was registered with petchip but not on any UK data base I managed to put a block on any further payments
