Quick Response

Virtual Lucy is a god send

I love the virtual lucy access and use it frequently because trying to get appointments at my own doctors is almost impossible. Recently used Axa for help with a knee issue. Scan was quickly booked, consultant seen and operation carried out within weeks each of other.

Only slight gripe would be sometimes an extra referral into a more senior consultant to try and persuade you that physio is a good idea - when that hasnt been working. Although, this is fairly commonplace with all insurers.

Not customer focused and are vague on likely costs. I have personally found that this…

I have personally found that this company lacks transparency.
The terms and conditions are pro AXA and despite trying to understand the costing structure and likely costs of a procedure AND reaching out to customer services, you simply don’t get a straight answer. Then at the 11th hour they present you with the full picture including the cost to you.
They unexpectedly told me that I’d need to contribute approximately £5k towards the surgery I needed. I was not expecting this and I do not accept their explanation for the charge.
I asked them to expedite my complaint as the matter was urgent with my policy due to expire in a few weeks and they refused to do so. I’m sad to say it’s not customer focused at all.

Service was fine, premium increases weren't!

Service was fine, however excessive price increases after submitting minor claims, circa 200% over a 4 year period!
