Awful Website

Your bot is appalling and constantly sends you around in circles. All O wanted was to speak to a human as a patient and you don't have any option to do this unless its an emergency. Sack your web designer and start having some basic customer services!

Fast payment, helpful calldesk.

Recently lost a filling whilst on holiday in Turkey. I emailed Denplan and got an immediate positive response. I received a temporary filling and made a claim on arrival home. I got confirmation of payment the next day.

Better to pay!

Service provided by dentists aren't monitored so its just a tick box exercise. Xrays done for the sake of it and served no purpose: so much so that hygienist didn't have the information needed.
Denist admin were keeping a score chart in the office for sold Denplan.

Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns.

We can confirm the General Dental Council is the regulatory body for dentists in the UK. Membership of Denplan is open only to individual registrants with the General Dental Council who are legally entitled to practise dentistry in the UK.

Denplan is not a regulatory body, therefore, we are unable to comment on the clinical opinion of any clinician. However, we can confirm with regards to radiographs dentists are obligated to refuse treatment without having an up-to-date x-ray, this forms part of their responsibilities under NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) guidance.

In order for us to further address your concerns, please may I ask that you contact our Customer Relations team directly at DenplanCustomer.Relations@simplyhealth.co.uk. For security purposes, please include your date of birth and post code.

Awful awful customer experience.

Awful awful customer experience.
On hold for an hour just to speak to a real person who then told me they could do nothing and I had to contact my dentist - who had already told me to contact Denplan. All i needed to do was add a new person to the plan. Their plan, not my dentist!!!!!!
HOW CAN THAT BE SO HARD.
Also the music on hold has now killed any enjoyment of ever listening to Coldplay ever again.

We really appreciate you taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.

It’s very disappointing for us to read your comments and hear how unhappy you are with your experience contacting us.

For our customers who have Denplan directly through their dentist it is our standard practice to direct them to discuss their treatments and what is covered by their policy with their dentist. This is because Denplan is a monthly budgeting scheme for which we act as an administrator, collecting your monthly payments and passing these to your registered dentist, whom your contract is with. What your policy covers you for is agreed by your dentist.

Saying this however, we'd like the opportunity to address your concerns and investigate these further. Please may we ask that you contact our Customer Relations team directly at DenplanCustomer.Relations@simplyhealth.co.uk. For security purposes, please include your date of birth and post code.

Thank you for your patience,

Danish dental treatment Covered by Denplan

Recently while in Denmark I experienced pain with a tooth recently crowned by my local dentist. As having Denplan I phoned to establish if I was covered for treatment abroad. I was informed by a very pleasant lady that my policy had the appropriate supplement. I was advised to find a local dentist and ensure I got an itemised bill after I paid for any treatment required. The lady advised me that a claim form would need to be completed (which she emailed me whilst I was on the call) and the itemised bill be attached. It could be sent on by post or email.
On returning home I did as she asked. Within a couple of days of me having the completed form sent by email to Denplan, my claim was ok'd and the monies were placed into my account with no fuss.

Amazing help when needed.

With my regular dentist being some distance from my home I was relieved to find that Denplan could help me to find relief from the dreadful dental pain that I had been suffering.
A great service. My thanks are the least I can offer.

Went above and beyond in a dental emergency

After contacting a Denplan consultant (unfortunately I didn’t note his name), I was quickly helped to access emergency dental treatment in my area at a time when I had significant mobility issues due to a leg injury. This made it possible for me to receive urgent care for a severe wisdom tooth infection — which was at its worse, and more painful than the leg injury itself. All bills were covered by the policy, and the claims process was seamless. Overall, I would strongly recommend Denplan for their empathy, efficiency and value for money. The consultant went above and beyond at a moment when I was in considerable pain and agony.

I have cancelled my plan due to the payment increase. I visit my dentist once a year and its not worth what I pay to what I pay for one visit. Also I asked what exactly I'm I paying for when the price went up. I was sent an email telling me. My money goes to,staff training, equipment and building maintenance?. I now pay less for one visit a year than what I was paying on the plan.

Hello Christine,

Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention, we’re sorry to hear how disappointed you are regarding your fee increase.

I can confirm that is correct your fees could have increased for several reasons, such as practice training, inflation or cost of living. For our customers who have Denplan directly through their dentist it is our standard practice to direct them to discuss any concerns they may have with their dentist. This is because Denplan is a monthly budgeting scheme for which we act as an administrator, collecting your monthly payments and passing these to your registered dentist, whom your contract is with.

Therefore, if you would like to find out the specific reasons for the fee increase, I would suggest speaking to your dental practice who would be able to help you further.

Saying this however, we would also welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns. To enable us to do this please may I ask that you contact our Customer Relations team directly at DenplanCustomer.Relations@simplyhealth.co.uk. For security purposes, please include your date of birth and post code.

Thank you,

Clare

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Experience with DenPlan

I've had an excellent experience with DenPlan over the last two years.

Communication: Their email communication is fantastic – I usually receive a reply the same day or the next, which is very reassuring.

Claim Submission: The online claim process is simple and easy to follow. The only small downside is that the site can feel a little clunky – it logs you out quite quickly and doesn’t offer much claim history in the portal. It would be great if it worked more like the Simply Health portal and if DenPlan had an app to make it even more convenient.

Claim Processing: They are very understanding of personal situations – happy to wait if extra documentation is needed – and once everything is provided, they respond quickly.

Overall, I’m very happy with the service and highly recommend DenPlan to others.
