Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such an amazing review!

We're absolutely delighted to hear about your positive experience with our Customer Care team and that we were able to help transfer Rory's details into your name. We understand how important it is to ensure your pet's microchip information is accurate, so it's wonderful to know that everything was resolved for you smoothly.

It's particularly fantastic to hear your kind words about Daisy. We'll certainly make sure your lovely feedback is passed on to her. She'll be absolutely thrilled to know that she made such a positive impression, especially so early in her career with us. To hear that she took the time to understand the issue, clearly explained what had happened, communicated throughout the process, and resolved everything effectively is exactly the level of service we strive to provide.

However, if you ever need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to get in touch – we'll always be here and happy to help.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with our charging structure, and we'd like to provide some additional context, as there is an important distinction between exercising a data protection right and using the services of a pet microchip database.

At Identibase, we fully recognise and comply with our obligations under the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Individuals have the right to have inaccurate personal data corrected, and exercising that statutory right is not something we charge for. However, the services provided by a DEFRA-compliant pet microchip database involve considerably more than simply correcting a piece of personal data.

Identibase provides the initial registration of a pet completely free of charge, and that registration remains on our database for the lifetime of the pet unless a change is required. We chose this model because we believe there should be no financial barrier to getting a pet registered in the first place. Some other databases charge an upfront registration fee instead; different databases operate different pricing models.

When changes are requested, there is significant work involved behind the scenes. We don't simply edit a line on a screen. As a DEFRA-compliant database responsible for millions of pet records, we must maintain secure systems, protect customer data, carry out identity and verification checks where required, process and validate changes accurately, maintain audit trails, provide customer support by phone, email and live chat, invest in cybersecurity and system resilience, and continue meeting the regulatory standards expected of a UK pet microchip database. These are substantial ongoing operational costs.

It's also important to clarify that our subscription services provide considerably more than unlimited changes to your pet's details. They include a range of additional pet protection benefits, including enhanced missing pet support and reunification services designed to help maximise the chances of lost pets being returned to their keepers. Those services require ongoing staffing, technology and operational investment, which is why they are offered as subscription products.

We absolutely agree that keeping microchip details up to date is essential for animal welfare, which is precisely why we invest heavily in maintaining a secure, compliant national database and support service. We regularly encourage customers to review their details, and we continue to provide free initial registration so that pets can be registered without cost.

We respect that customers may prefer a different pricing model, and there are a number of DEFRA-compliant databases available in the UK. However, we do feel it is important that reviews accurately reflect the legal position and the fact that our charges relate to the operation of our database and associated services, rather than charging people to exercise their statutory data protection rights.

Thank you again for sharing your views. We genuinely value constructive feedback and will continue working to provide a secure, reliable, and supportive service for pet owners.

Warm regards,

Ben

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review!

We're delighted to hear that Peanut's microchip is still working perfectly after eight years. It's completely understandable to wonder from time to time whether a microchip is still in place and functioning, so it must have been incredibly reassuring to hear it scan immediately during his recent health check at the vets.

Microchips are designed to provide a permanent form of identification for pets, and having them routinely checked during veterinary visits is an excellent way to ensure everything is working as it should. It's fantastic to hear that Peanut's chip was detected straight away, giving you continued confidence that, should he ever become lost, he can be identified quickly and reunited with you.

Keeping your contact details up to date alongside a working microchip is one of the most important steps any pet owner can take, and we're proud to play a part in helping keep pets safe and improving the chances of successful reunification should the unexpected happen.

Thank you again for sharing your experience. We're so pleased that Peanut's microchip continues to provide you with that valuable peace of mind, and we wish you both many more happy, healthy years together.

Warm regards,

Ben

We're absolutely delighted to hear how positive your experience with Identibase has been so far. It’s lovely to know that having your boy microchipped has given you the reassurance and peace of mind that so many pet owners value. We completely understand how adventurous and curious cats can be, especially when they enjoy exploring the outdoors—even if it’s just to enjoy their favourite grass! It certainly sounds like your cheeky boy likes to keep you on your toes.

Knowing that your pet is microchipped and that your details are registered can make all the difference should the unexpected ever happen. While we hope you never need to rely on it, we're proud to provide a service that helps reunite thousands of pets with their families, giving owners that extra confidence every time their much-loved companion heads out to explore.

We're also delighted to hear your kind comments about your experience with our Customer Care team. Providing compassionate, understanding, and knowledgeable support is incredibly important to us, and it's wonderful to know that the advisor you spoke with took the time to listen to your situation and made you feel understood.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience, particularly as we appreciate how distressing it is when a beloved pet goes missing.

Firstly, we're very sorry that you found yourself in that situation, and we sincerely hope your cat was found safe and well.

We would, however, like to provide some additional context regarding the service you purchased, as we feel this is important for other readers.

The service you signed up for was our enhanced Missing Pet Protection (IdentiAlert) subscription. This service provides considerably more than simply allowing you to report a missing pet. Once activated, it immediately initiates enhanced reunification support, including sending alerts to registered keepers within a 5-mile radius of where your pet was reported missing, as well as notifying participating pet professionals, such as veterinary practices and other relevant organisations, within a 20-mile radius. These immediate actions are designed to maximise the chances of a lost pet being reunited with its keeper as quickly as possible.

During the purchase process, customers can choose to pay either annually or by monthly instalments. From your account, it appears that you selected the monthly payment option, which forms part of a 12-month agreement. This information is presented during the purchase journey and is included within the terms and conditions accepted when the subscription is taken out.

You also mention the cooling-off period. Under consumer legislation, where a customer asks for a service to begin immediately and that service has been provided, the right to a full refund during the cooling-off period does not generally apply once the service has been used. In your case, the enhanced missing pet services were activated and the alert process commenced following your request. As a result, the subscription had already begun delivering the benefits of the service.

We understand that no one wants to think about contracts when their pet is missing, and we genuinely sympathise with how emotional those circumstances can be. However, the enhanced reunification service we provide carries significant operational costs, and we're proud to offer it because it has helped reunite over 70% of reported missing pets with their keepers. Maintaining the technology, alerting systems, partnerships, and customer support required to deliver this service does come at a cost, which is why it is offered as a subscription.

We always welcome constructive feedback and will continue looking at how we can make our communications as clear as possible. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we sincerely hope your cat is now safely back home.

Warm regards,

Ben

Firstly, welcome to Identibase! We're delighted to have you and your two rehomed cats registered with us.

It's great to hear that transferring the details of one of your cats into your keepership was straightforward. We’re sorry that you experienced a few issues when adding your second cat following their new microchip, but we're pleased that our team was able to resolve everything for you quickly.

We're especially delighted to hear your kind comments about our Customer Care team. Providing prompt, polite, and knowledgeable support is exactly what we strive for, whether customers contact us by phone or email.

We understand that welcoming rehomed pets into your family is an exciting time, and ensuring their microchip details are accurate and up to date is an important part of keeping them protected. We're so pleased we could help get everything in place for you.

Thank you again for your lovely feedback and for choosing Identibase. Your kind words mean a great deal to the whole team, and we wish you and your two cats many happy, healthy years together.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We were genuinely sorry to read your review, particularly after speaking with you directly to resolve your concerns.

Firstly, we're pleased that we were able to discuss the matter with you and reach a resolution. Having reviewed your account, we can confirm that the Alert service was taken out by you over two months ago on our monthly payment option. This service is provided on a 12-month agreement, with the monthly payments covering the ongoing protection and benefits included within the service. It was not a service that had only recently been added to your account.

We would also like to clarify that there is absolutely no requirement for customers to subscribe to one of our premium services. Our pet microchip database remains available without a premium subscription, and any additional protection services we offer are entirely optional. We never require customers to purchase these services in order to keep their pets registered.

During our conversation, although the service had been active for over two months and was subject to the agreed 12-month terms and conditions, we made the decision as a gesture of goodwill to refund your most recent monthly payment, cancel your subscription immediately, and waive the remainder of the 12-month agreement. This was an exception to our normal terms because we wanted to resolve the matter fairly and positively for you.

For this reason, we are disappointed by the content of your review, as it does not reflect either the service that was originally agreed or the goodwill resolution that was offered and accepted. We always aim to treat our customers fairly and compassionately, and on this occasion we went beyond our contractual obligations in an effort to bring the matter to a satisfactory conclusion.

We appreciate that you have recently experienced difficult personal circumstances, and we genuinely wish you well in your recovery. However, we also feel it is important that other readers have an accurate understanding of what happened.

If there is anything further you would like to discuss, our Customer Care team will always be happy to speak with you.

Warm regards,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

We're sorry to hear that you remain unhappy with your experience, and we'd really like the opportunity to resolve this for you.

Following your initial enquiry, we contacted you directly and provided evidence showing when the subscription was taken out, together with the relevant timeline of events recorded on your account. Since sending this information, we haven't received a response from you, so unfortunately we haven't been able to continue our investigation or discuss the matter further.

We genuinely want to help and would welcome the opportunity to explain exactly what we can see on your account, including when the subscription was activated, how it was set up, any communications that were sent, and answer any questions you may still have. We believe that by talking through the timeline together, we can hopefully clear up any misunderstandings and work towards a satisfactory resolution.

Customer satisfaction is extremely important to us, and if there is something we've missed or if you have further information you'd like us to consider, we're more than happy to review it. Our aim is always to resolve concerns fairly, openly, and professionally.

We'd be grateful if you could respond to our previous email or contact our Customer Care team so that we can continue assisting you. We remain committed to resolving this matter and look forward to hearing from you.

We're sorry to hear that our email caused you concern, and we'd like to provide some additional context.

The email you received was a periodic reminder encouraging you to check that your pet's microchip details were still accurate and up to date. Sending these reminders is considered good practice, as both DEFRA and animal welfare organisations recommend that pet owners regularly review their registered details to ensure they remain correct. Keeping contact information current is one of the most important factors in helping reunite lost pets with their families.

We'd also like to reassure you that there was absolutely no requirement to take out a subscription as a result of receiving this reminder. The purpose of the email was simply to encourage you to review your details. As with many websites, we do display our optional products and subscription services alongside our standard services, but these are entirely optional and are there for customers who wish to take advantage of the additional pet protection benefits they provide.

Our aim is always to help pet owners keep their records accurate while offering additional services for those who feel they would benefit from them. We certainly never want customers to feel under any obligation to purchase a subscription simply because they have received a reminder to review their details.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback. If you have any questions about your account or our services, we'd be more than happy to help.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

Firstly, we would like to say how truly sorry we are for the loss of your dog. After 15 years together, we appreciate that this is an incredibly difficult time, and we are saddened to hear that our communications added to what was already an emotional situation.

We understand why receiving further emails after notifying us of your dog's passing would have been upsetting, and we're sorry for the frustration this caused.

With regard to your telephone call, we appreciate that this may have seemed unnecessary. However, we do have a legal obligation to comply with UK data protection legislation. This means that if an account is registered in another person's name, we are unable to discuss or make changes to that account with anyone else unless we are satisfied that we have the appropriate authority to do so. These safeguards are in place to protect all of our customers' personal information, and while they can sometimes feel frustrating, they are applied consistently and are not intended to make an already difficult situation any harder.

We would also like to reassure you that this is certainly not a marketing ploy. Where emails have continued to be sent after a bereavement has been reported, this is something we would genuinely like to investigate, as it does not sound like the experience we would expect. There may be a genuine reason why some communications were still generated, and we'd welcome the opportunity to review this and ensure everything has been updated correctly.

Finally, we're sorry that our condolences came across as patronising. That was never our intention. When a customer tells us they have lost a beloved pet, we genuinely do sympathise, as many of our own colleagues are pet owners themselves and understand just how difficult that loss can be.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your feedback, and if your husband, as the registered account holder, is able to contact us, or if you contact us together, we would be more than happy to review the account and ensure everything has been updated correctly.

Warm regards,
