Still considered as a new member?
That I don’t know.
Worst regret, If you have been with another provider, please consider carefully before switching. I was with Bupa for 4 years, I was deceived a few times by Medibank employees. I lost my accrued benefits and additionally, I was lied to by a second Medibank staff who had no idea and told me I had 2.5k limit for a treatment when actually I only have $200 because I lost all my benefits in the transfer. With this knowledge I bought a 2.5k treatment and when I went to claim I ended up getting $99 because they wouldn't let me claim the yearly limit in one go. Basically I got $99 for a 2.5k treatment.
Should have read the policy yourself, most of their employees receive commission on how many customer they sign up and there is a chance they might say whatever.
I double checked and they don't even know their own policy.
You can only carry over waiting periods served, not accrued benefits like limits etc?
Sucks about the limit for $2.5k though.
Yeah no waiting period.
calls recorded and you can take them to the ombudsman for that indiscretion.
with Bupa now and the premium has been paid up to November. Is is possible to cancel the Bupa policy and get premium refunded? Thinking of switching to Medibank.
Yep.
Yes
tthats a good deal but I just switched to Bupa for 6 weeks free and $50 ecard. If this comes back another time, I will do it
Do they still have that promo?
it was 9saver, I think ts finished for now
Just switched to Medibank 10 days ago…
