Good health insurance provider.
The Exeter have been great. The premiums were reasonable, especially given my existing health conditions. They have also handled a recent claim with efficiency. A minor complaint was quickly investigated and upheld. So overall very satisfied.

Policy is due for renewal
Policy is due for renewal, I've been trying for the last 2 weeks to get through to customer service to ask for some amendments in my cover from renewal. Ive also sent emails. So far I've waited up to 45 mins before hanging up. I must have called every day for the last 2 weeks waited 25-40min each time waisting my life away! Im now looking elsewhere, Ive never had a claim so this is probably the first time I've called them since I took the policy out 3 years ago.
How on earth can I have faith in a company insuring my health to which I am paying a hefty direct debit to each month if I cant even speak to them. Very Poor service, but after reading the reviews, it seems I'm not the only one. Very disappointed, The Exeter came highly recommend to me as well, time to move on to another insurer I think

Seem to be reluctant to transact new business direct.
Telephoned today to try and take out new policy, suggested I should work through a broker or go on web site, they do not seem interested in new business, very disappointing.

Hi Paul, I’m sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
While we are providers of Income Protection, Private Medical, and Life cover, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) does not allow us to provide personalised advice about policies. This means we’re unable to advise on what cover would be most suitable for your individual circumstances.
For this reason, we recommend speaking with a financial adviser, as they’re able to provide advice and arrange a policy tailored to your needs. Many thanks Denise, Member Servicing Specialist.
Sick pay after hip replacement
I have been with The Exeter for many years with an income protection scheme. I had to use it recently after having a hip replacement. Angela was really helpful as we're the rest of the staff I spoke to. They were very quick to deal with my claim which was really useful during my time off work. Thanks again, Martin Newman.

Hi Steve, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm glad to hear you found our process very easy and received prompt answers from my colleagues. Many thanks Denise Member Servicing Specialist.
Positive experience….
We are extremely happy with the uncomplicated service we receive with Exeter. It usually takes them 2-4 days for them to get back to us after emailing them but the response is good and clearly explained, usually with a confirmation of coverage and a claim number.
We found it’s always better to contact them just to “tick all the boxes”.
Booking an initial online appointment on the App with a GP is easy, resulting in clear advice and an accompanying referral.
It’s best if you do your own homework regarding your choice of consultant and hospital which needs to be covered by your plan. Our experience is that they can’t really advise on individual consultants with the best references…..maybe data-protection.
We have found that some consultants have different invoice rates to what Exeter accept which can sometimes cause unwanted discussion with the consultant.
If arranging an online consultant or hospital from an external website, choose AXA from the list of insurers as Exeter is not always listed….which we did not know at the time.

Extremely slow and protracted authorisation process
Extremely slow response when asking for authorisation 10+ days and only progressed when I chased. Now requested doctor to confirm basic facts by form so now more delays and forms to go back to clinical team so more delays expected. Have had multiple other health plans and never had anything like these delays. Not impressed at all.

So glad i took out private health care with The Exeter. I was recently diagnosed with cateracts in both eyes and have had them both operated on in a matter of 3 months. The only thing i found was i was given misleading information by one adviser that i challanged and was told by another adviser that i had been given the wrong information. Also they dont always come back to you when they have requested some details by Email. Having a dedicated adviser would be do much easier
Having said all that i am very pleased with my recent dealings with them and the positive outcome.
