Reading the last review amazes me. My dealings with United Patients have always been v good, they are helpful, supportive and even covered my premiums for 3 months while i was unemployed to help me. How many insurance companies would do that? I find them v good and their free medical at harley street is brilliant! I highly recommend them and their services.F Graham, London

I joined United Patients 4 yrs ago after having had numerous other medical policies over the years and i can honestly say that i have never been with a better company. Every year i am encouraged and reminded to use their annual health screening at Harley Street. This is for the purposes of preventing illnesses and detecting any problems at the early stages. I've had exactley the same screening with Bupa - but had to pay £385!! With United Patients it's FREE of charge each year to members! It's the only insurance i know that let's you use it, and looks after you, withOUT being ill and in hospital! I bearly pay £3 per week for the policy ...  Read the complete review

United Patients is one of the worst insurance providers that I have ever come accross. I say this because the complete experience is terrible. To start the Shopping experience is a nightmare. They have got a hard sales stategy and they will keep you on the phone for almost an hour and literally bully you into buying their product. The user experience is even more worse.

They don't cover you for pre-existing conditions... This leaves nothing else in their plan because the rest of the ...  Read the complete review

I joined United Patients over a year ago and was recently boasting about how great they are to a friend of mine who promptly Google’d them and found this derisory review and showed it to me. I don’t usually get involved in posting reviews on the net and, having read about DooYoo “reward miles” for writing lengthy reviews, I suspect that this was the writer’s motivation in writing the review. Of course its possible that this guy’s experience was as written, but in my case I have to say that I have nothing but praise for United Patients, the services they offer and, in particular, the way in which their staff have been trained to deal with queries and requests ...  Read the complete review

Here is an account of my recent dealings with United Patients (UP). I am writing this because my experience of this company has made me VERY ANGRY. They obviously have a hard sell marketing strategy without any backup. READ ON AND DON'T BE FOOLED. In July I first received a call from a company called United Patients. Normally I tell people selling something where to go and then hang up. I tried but this one was persistant. I was told that UP were a relatively new company offering a health plan (NB NOT private health insurance) where if ill or hospitalised you would receive certain benefits (cash, private room) and a lump sum of £25000 if you die.
