Review of the Vitality, Health Insurance:

Very good highly recommended.. essential Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Poor comms - nice App, Broken Promises, Broken Trust.

Broken Promises, Broken Trust. Don't be fooled by the flashy rewards app! While they offer lots of incentives and rewards, their actual insurance is a nightmare. They make claiming incredibly difficult, and their customer service is appalling. The claims team makes promises to write back with information but never does, leaving you in the lurch. My experience has been incredibly disappointing. For the business medical insurance we had purchased, as a director, I wish I had picked an insurer that values communication and honours its commitments. As a business owner, I feel we've gone down the wrong road in selecting Vitality for the company's medical benifit. Reviewed on: 20th November 2024

Avoid at all cost, better Health Companies out there!!

My Company decided to give it a go and enroll this year with Vitality, for the past 15 years we used mainly Axa ppp and other providers such Bupa. These big companies are expensive however they take the stress away in terms of approving claims or consultations. Never had problems in the past. Unfortunately for me Vitality so far only offered a poor service. As other reviewers mentioned the amount informations requested plus involving GP on obtain records only elongate the process; reason why people use Private health insurance is to actually avoid these long wait to see a GP and been referred as soon as possible.Just so you know if you ask your Gp to fill up the records forms it will take up to 4 weeks and also you have to pay a fee to your surgery. So you might be quicker booking an appointment with your Gp than fill these forms !!! The frustrating part is the fact we took the full package from vitality and covering also existing condition however at the time of the switch you must forecast if you might have present conditions that might develop into something that requires additional consultations, basically they will do everything in their power to avoid claims!! So to everyone thinking to switch to Vitality ]bear in mind that you might encounter issue when making a claim. By the way my referral was approved by Vitality online GP and still wants more informations by my Gp, Definitely no worth the stress on taking a cheaper Company which only interest is on saving money.

Vitality tech is a disaster.

Vitality tech is a disaster. They will put your premium up if you do not record sufficient activity... however, their tech is so terribly unreliable that you'll be regularly submitting screenshots to get Vitality to manually register activity, as it will routinely fail to sync/register activity. Trying to resolve it by seeking support on the website/app is a frustrating cycle of broken links, buttons that don't work, and repeatedly having to log in. The customer support channels are dreadful too. It all makes for an appalling customer experience, and I wish I'd never joined them Reviewed on: 30th September 2024

Brilliant rewards scheme

Vitality rewards are brilliant, we get almost half our money back through the rewards scheme. Any GP appointments or referrals we have had been included in our plan and so quick. Also, fantastic customer service. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

I believe I was mis sold my policy this year, I was told there would be new benefits added which influenced me to renew however over 6 months later there haven't been any new benefits, in fact, more and more benefits are being removed. Also, at renewal, the only offer they made to me to reduce a premium - after 30 years with Vitality with no claims - was to increase my excess. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

In this past insurance year I have gone through a very serious health issue. Vitality have approved all my specialists, sometimes within minutes, having gone over and beyond to provide me with expert health at what was a very difficult time for me and my family. Insurance is something we have, not because we want to use it, but for that often surprise, perhaps catastrophic moment, when we need it; I am so greatful to Vitality for their part in getting me to see the specialists that I needed.
