Not worth the complicated claim

So complicated they didnt pay my last claim because Id not got the correct receipts they said they needed more than just a receipt they wanted a full breakdown of a check up????? This time they keep sending it back because even though I have a ploicy that covers my and my husband I have to claim twice once for me and once for him. It would be helpful if that was made clear when claiming instead of wasting my time

I lost a tooth on a Saturday evening and called Denplan emergency number Sunday morning. A very helpful lady suggested a dental advisor could call me back, l agreed and was called 10 minutes later . Having assured the dental advisor that l was in no pain nor was the gum bleeding, the dental advisor recommended keeping the tooth in water and to visit my dentist asap.. Two days it was reattached as a temporary measure and l await a further appointment.

DENPLAN WERE BRILLIANT

Both Evelyn and Naomi were brilliant today in getting me emergency dental treatment on my plan as there was a problem with the emergency number on the practice who were covering my practice over the bank holiday weekend. They kept me informed were very professional and kept me informed. My dentist agreed to come out although he wasn’t on call. Thanks to Andrei, Victoria Road Practice, Penrith. Most appreciated excellent service.

Hi Heather,

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and sharing your experience of interacting with Naomi and Evelyn. It's great to hear they were able to support you with your emergency over the Bank Holiday weekend.

I had originally been a customer of Denplan

I had originally been a customer of Denplan for over 25years and I was very well cared for with my Dentist of over 45 years under Denplan. I relocated to Scotland in 2021 and could not find a Denplan Dentist. My care was then under the NHS, I cancelled my contract with Denplan that year. Big mistake, my care needs suffered, I deeply regretted cancelling my denplan contract. I am now back with Denplan in England and I’m extremely happy as they really care. I now have no worries, great care, affordable care, very professional care, and a service that is second to none. After receiving many years under Denplan care, I fully recommend Denplan you won’t ever be disappointed. You will never have to worry about your Dental health and needs. In my opinion it’s a great service with great Benefits and great Dentists.

I just rang up because I’m on the plan but my son who is on the NHS isn’t on the plan I rang to speak to someone so that they can explain how my son can be added or if there are any alternatives but I was put through an automated robot who couldn’t even sort out my problem … this is very annoying because I don’t want to speak to a robot I want to speak to a real person who could sort out my problem .

I was on holiday in Suffolk when I started getting pain and discomfort in my lower left jaw, I contacted Denplan at 9:25 am on Monday morning and an appointment was arranged for me at 3:00 pm that day at a nearby Dentist.

Great response

Great response. Developed an abscess 500 miles from home. Emergency helpline very effective, within 2 hours James had found me a suitable appointment for early the following day. All promises to return calls by an appointed time were kept. The dentist I saw was great.
Submitting the claim online was easy. Can’t comment on payment just yet as I’ve only just submitted.
