Outrageous customer service

1
Communication with Vitality is a nightmare. Extremely poor customer service. Nobody answers the emails, and being waiting on phone over 1 hour is a joke. The care hub is useless too, so you have to be on the phone to get trough to customer service every time you need get any information or authorisation to proceed with treatment required by specialist.

Unethical, Uncaring and Uncoordinated Staff and Systems

1
Put my payments for reimbursement on hold as they are stupid, different computer systems and teams do not communicate. You have to call the same number and can pushed across three teams of half wits, each of whom are rude and obtuse - seeking to make you ‘not bother’ so they can keep the money and pay out. The most unethical and caniving Reviewed on: 10th December 2021

Legal way to scam you when you are most vulnerable

1
I had this insurance for 2 years and it was completely useless. evetime they either rejected the claim or made so much hassle for me to submit it that it was impossible to do. It has cost me more money just to make the claims that were later rejected than what they ever paid for anything. And it has cost me 10x over what I would have paid If I just went to private practice and payed from pocket. It is just a bunch of idiots calling each other and pretending that they are providing a service. Complete scam, stay away, do not get swayed by their marketing sales reps, they are completely miss representing the claim process and make it look like you can actually get something out of this.

Do not take out life insurance with this company

1
Vitality_UK your handling of claims and medical knowledge of your assessing team is completly imcompetent - My advice to others - DO NOT TAKE OUT LIFE INSURANCE WITH THIS COMPANY - My dad passed away and this company are doing everything possible to avoid paying a relatively straight forward claim. I now have to get solicitors and the financial ombudsman involved. They are great and helpful when getting you signed up but this is exactly the opposite when you need to make a claim. My dad trusted this company and they have let him down - if you want to protect your family by taking out life insurance then do not get involved with this company - your family deserve better than the complete incompetency of this company.

Awful company

1
Do not go with Vitality. They do not cover anything. They do not respond if you call or if you email. I’m awaiting calls from weeks ago. The app doesn’t work properly so you will have to be on the phone to tech people. Save yourself the time of cancelling in a few months time because if you ever need to make a claim, you will end up cancelling immediately. Reviewed on: 8th November 2021

Extremely poor customer service rendering health care inaccessible

1
Their customer service is awful with ridiculous wait times that prevent you accessing care. No option to ask for a callback which would at least save you having to sit and listen to the same loop of muzak until it breaks your will and you give up. Any company that actually gave two hoots about their customers beyond gobbling their money would employ enough staff to provide a service. Reviewed on: 5th November 2021

Do not use Vitality

1
Vitality wont cover you for practically anything. if you have ever had a symptom before the plan they wont cover, even if its not related. They have tried to say something is related even though it is totally different. They said they would make a decision in 3 days... 8 weeks later and still waiting. I have called 4 times in the last 2 weeks and i'm told somebody will ring back by 6.30 but they never get back to me. AVOID THIS COMPANY! Reviewed on: 3rd November 2021

Crooks

1
Crooks Crooks. They are there not to pay anything other than the salaries of the employees, their CEO and advertisers. Beyond the fact that they will never pay for any claim you need to wait for 2 hours to talk to them after waiting 1 hour for someone to pass you to someone else and then wait for 1 hour more They hope you will give up. They should be audited immediately by the regulator, they are providing no service for the money they receive. I can start an insurance company my self like that. They are nothing, just crooks.
