VERY VERY VERY POOR SERVICE!

VERY VERY VERY POOR SERVICE!! VERY VERY VERY POOR SERVICE!!! - AVOID AND MOVE YOUR HEALTH CARE IMMINENTLY!!! Sadly this is now the second poor customer journey I have experience since using vitality, once first hand but more recently with my wife. It's safe to say Vitality is not geared up to help you... yes, they drum loads into advertising, offer you a free apple watch and sponsor football stadiums... but when you need them... for your health... they're not there and put you through hell. My wife's experience: She contacts Vitality regarding throat issues, they (online vitality doctor) suggest her tonsils need removing and provides a list of specialist she should contact. My wife contacts and has an appointment with a throat specialist from Vitality's list they provided, who states my wife needs her tonsils removed. After booking the appointment, and rearranging her work schedule, as she's self employed, Vitality write to confirm they do not agree with the specialists decision to remove my wife's tonsils and therefore refuse to cover her operation. NOTE: that vitality disagrees with the decision's a specialist THEY REFERRED my wife to, not someone my wife found. Vitality maintained their decision until the Director of the business who covers my wife, called vitality, partly due to the renewal date approaching, where they agreed to cover my wife!!! coincidence???? was it the treat that two business were prepared to move their private health care else where, which prompted vitality to suddenly change their mind??? Nonetheless, damage was done.... Vitality caused weeks of STRESS... and UPSET.... for what??? Vitality are a joke... and because I have decided to report them to their regulatory bodies, they now what to bribe me with £250.00 for redress!! No thank you One of the most concerning parts was I had communicated with the Office of the CEO via their email (officeoftheceo@vitality), where I communicated with very dismissive and rude individual, whom in my view should be setting an example and leading from the front... instead, they are setting a disgraceful exsample. As mentioned, this was not my first negative encounter with vitality, therefore proving they're will do anything in their power to find a loop hole and avoid supporting their customer health needs. SHAME ON YOU VITALITY.... I strongly advise anyone against viatlity and suggest Bupa as a far more suitable health care provided!! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2024

not a real health insurance really.

not a real health insurance really. they specialise in providing gadjets, vouchers and coupons. when medical health is needed, they're not there for you. flew abroad for treatment in the end, far easier and less hassle. Reviewed on: 10th January 2024

Utter shite

Doctors service online means nothing as you still need to see your own GP. Didn’t send forms as promised Treatment then based on yet another level of assessment. Returning to BUPA as soon as I can. Utterly rubbish Reviewed on: 12th December 2023

Horrible company to deal with

My experience with Vitality has been nothing short of frustrating. From the very beginning, it became evident that their primary goal is to find any possible loophole to avoid fulfilling their commitments. Dealing with them has been a constant battle, as they consistently attempt to wiggle their way out of honoring claims. If your employer is providing this as a benefit, it is better to refuse it or you'll be paying benefit tax for absolutely nothing. Reviewed on: 12th December 2023

Pointless

Herniated a disc in my back in Feb 2023. After months of backwards and forwards regarding the claim and gp statements I was told it was denied due to a pre existing condition back in 2001 when I went to doctors for back pain. Reviewed on: 22nd November 2023

Confusing policies, dishonest behaviour

I was initially very pleased to be their customer and signed up for myself and my daughter. In their policy it is stated that they provide "full cover for talking therapies" which was made clear to me both in written and over the phone. As a matter of fact, this was one of the reasons why I subscribed. When I raised a claim they said they will not cover anything before the 1,000 excess - even if 'My plan benefits' clearly states otherwise. I raised a complaint to no avail. Even if the amount claimed is insignificant, It seems that they are challenging their customers' intelligence by making up unimaginable excuses to avoid honouring the agreement. On the positive side, their representatives are kind and educated. I am raising it with the financial ombudsman now and in the search of a new provider. I really wish it hadn't turn out this way.

Extremely Slow service and very complicating

The customer service never give and information or help over emails and on the phone I got different information regarding the same query. Reviewed on: 24th October 2023

never recomend

never recoemend the vitality after the gp letter also they are not giving authorisation on PMI, dont waste money with vitality. Reviewed on: 4th October 2023

Cinema vouchers don't work.

I have to ask my employer to change this company., all the benefits look like a scam, nothing works Reviewed on: 3rd October 2023

Cinema vouchers don't work. Support a joke.

2 Odeon cinema voucher codes have not worked. Contacting Vitality customer support is the most frustrating experience ever. I have sent countless messages and they act like they don't understand my simple query. When giving them the message references they give me, for some reason this is not enough for them to know who I am or what my query is about. Reviewed on: 29th September 2023
