Be very careful with this company !

Be very careful with this company, I have been in financial services for 38 years, I also own another company which needed a PMI policy for myself and 1 employee and family therefore took a Family Office Policy out over 10 years with no complaints on cover however with hardly any claims at the premiums rocketed over the years. At renewal in Dec 2024 I informed WPA I would be looking elsewhere as the premium was too high, BUPA offered me a comparative policy for a third of the renewal premium saving me over £4000. I informed the WPA representative who then said hang we may be able to something else ! 24 hours later he beat the BUPA quote with a flexible benefits policy for no drop in the level of cover ! When I queried this with WPA they informed I wasn’t eligible for this plan as I only have 1 employee, the representative said that as I own 60% of the company I am classed as an employee therefore I qualify ? So here I am today still with WPA on the same cover paying 2/3rds less than last year - there has been no change in my company in the last 10 years so I made a complaint based around the duty of care at renewal to ensure I had the most cost effective plan for my needs. Their reply was a categoric no and take it to the Ombudsman which I am now doing. I estimate I have overpaid over £20,000 in unnecessary premiums due to their lack of care. BEWARE OF OVERPAYING ON A SCHEME WHEN OTHERS ARE AVAILABLE AND GET AN ALTERNATIVE QUOTE AT RENEWAL !! Reviewed on: 26th March 2025

Awful and unlawful

I've been having an awful experience with WPA. I sprained my ankle within the time frame of my policy but based on an error by my GP, which was immediately amended a few days later (also on the notes I've provided them), they have unauthorised physiotherapy for my ankle. This in itself was very upsetting and it was decided just before Xmas, on the 23rd December. The previous treatment (one physio session) I had through them caused a massive injury to my knee. They were kind enough to authorise a specialist appointment as I was in horrific pain for over a week and unable to walk. I never had this issue before. The specialist asked for a MRI. He had to fill in a WPA report where he indicated this had never happened before. Not content with this WPA requested his clinical letter. As this referred to gym exercises that hadn't been recommended as they caused pain in my knee, they also asked for my medical notes, which I provided. No mention of knee or ankle issues prior to these. However they keep on asking for more information as there was a mention of an appointment with a rheumatologist for general inflammation in joints years ago. It's clear they do not want to authorise any more treatment/an MRI and as I am a private customer, and not an employee with huge benefits, they decided to discriminate against me. I have now complained several times to no effect. On 30th December they had a perverse pleasure in informing me they have up to 8 weeks to respond. Couldn't care less about the pain I'm in. What is the point of paying almost 3 thousand to get abused and ill treated like this?? I have regretted so much transferring my policy over to WPA. They're far worse than AXA, whose admin team is a mess but they respond to complaints and try to address the issues. These guys just leave you stewing... And in pain. I was under the impression they were great. Not to me, unfortunately. They have since replied to my complaint on Trustpilot saying they are reviewing this. I believe they will take 8 weeks as required by law and of course make me pay privately although they are in breach of my policy terms and conditions. I will never renew my policy with this company and regret I have transferred to them. Reviewed on: 19th January 2025

Stay well clear

Took that long to pay the hospital for my Xray almost got a CCJ, there prices go up massively every year even if you do not claim, stay well away Reviewed on: 13th October 2024

Top customer service and excellent health policy

Excellent policy with full coverage, including existing conditions, no limits. No stress when I needed surgery about policy coverage which is always a worry with other providers. The customer service was the best I received from a health insurer, they even called post my surgery to check everything was ok. This provider is better than bupa and axa - and they actually care and go out of their way to help. Reviewed on: 13th September 2024

Please avoid..

They will spend days to build a case not to provide the private medical care, the underwriters dictate WPA. Go elsewhere, not worth the hassle. Reviewed on: 9th July 2024

Scam don’t sign in

When I first signed up for WPA, I was promised top-notch medical care and support. However, my experience has been far from satisfactory. Every time I contact their GP service, I am urged to see my personal GP instead. It begs the question - why am I paying for a service that constantly redirects me elsewhere? To make matters worse, the GPs that WPA collaborates with are a nightmare to deal with. Rude, dismissive, and lacking in basic bedside manners, they have left me feeling frustrated and abandoned. When I raised these concerns with my intermediary, Frank Coelho, he simply washed his hands off the matter, claiming that the GP service has nothing to do with WPA. Feeling utterly let down by the service, I am left with no choice but to write a scathing review to WPA. Their lack of accountability and poor quality of care have left me questioning the value of their services. It is a real shame that such a promising concept has turned out to be nothing more than a disappointment. Reviewed on: 4th July 2024

Expensive and poor service.

Expensive and poor service. Went to WPA about a problem with my knee. Had problems finding a specialist who would work with WPA. Then every step of the way yet another form is required to be completed by the specialist, slowing everything down, including authorisation for a scan. The phone app is also useless and simply complicates matters. Reviewed on: 16th May 2024

Avoid, avoid at all costs.

I would give 0 stars, but don't have that option so 1 star it is. I'm in need of surgery due to chronic knee pain, but the invoices for my consultations have not been paid since late February. When I called, the person I spoke to was not particularly helpful and had a general "can't be bothered" attitude. Reviewed on: 4th April 2024
