Fast. Excellent clarity of the skills of the consultants to choose from as far as I can see from now.

I took out Bupa private medical insurance after being told I would be able to access quick next-day GP appointments, which was very important to me as I have two children and NHS GP availability is already very poor.
After signing up and paying for the policy, I contacted Bupa to arrange a GP appointment and was shocked to find the earliest appointment available was in 9 days. That is completely unacceptable for a service being sold as fast-access private healthcare.
I cancelled the policy immediately and requested a refund as I feel I was misled about the level of service being offered.
Very disappointing experience and not worth the money. Would not recommend.

Not happy at all, I was contacted after 3-4 days of reaching out though my request was fairly urgent. Very disappointed

Very easy to claim and they keep you updated about the claim especially with my last claim. Because the invoice was for more than I could claim. They made sure I was aware (I was) of what they would be paying .

I had a medical concern and couldn't get an appointment with my GP as quickly as I wished. So I rang BUPA and arranged an appointment for that day with their GP facility. The doctor could not have been more helpful and I left with a prescription feeling reassured and, 2 weeks later, feeling much better.

I wanted to take a moment to share some positive feedback about my recent experience with Bupa. I was very impressed by the professionalism, kindness, and efficiency of your team. The support I received was clear, reassuring, and handled with genuine care, which made a real difference to my experience.

Bupa were very helpful with my claim. They could have made it perfect by making the payments to Doctor and hospital . I had to make 2 payments to 2 different places for my treatment. It would have been simpler and less time consuming for me if i paid Bupa one payment.

Wonderful people I spoke to each time I called. Sympathetic, caring and understanding. Listened to my needs and gave me the treatment I needed. Even had flowers delivered the next day. Highly recommended

A great app with a Dr. But denied any server treatment through them. Very disappointed. Symptoms had been slight before joined them and got worse. Not explained before we joined that this is pre existing and would not qualify for treatment.

Extremely easy to use the app!! I submitted an invoice for refund and I received confirmation message minutes later. Few days later I got the refund in my bank account.
