I was struggling paying my monthly premium which went up in costs the following year.
I needed help and support from there agent. He found a way of reducing my monthly premium without altering my pre-existing medical conditions which are in place.
Matt Dudhill the agent listened to me which made my experience great.

Nightmare experience with General and Medical
The whole experience of being with General and Medical has been nothing but a complete nightmare and has caused me unnecessary stress, anxiety and wasted time in trying to deal with issues. The service and support has never been there, they take far longer than any other company to settle invoices, calls not returned on a timely basis, communication with an individual, rather than a robot, is almost impossible and if they can get out of settling claims or dragging things out further, they will. I will never use this company again and would not recommend them under any circumstances. I would rather have no health insurance than use General and Medical again. I have since found that I am not the only person who has since recently left General and Medical due to not being satisfied with the level of service and professionalism.

They will scam you.
Late review but that's what their response was to me.
1. They dont accept their own gp
2. What's the point getting referral from NHS if I paying private.
"In respect of making a new claim I must advise that as per your policy terms, the referral letter must be from your registered NHS GP. We are unable to accept referrals from Health Hero. The 24 hr GP service is a third party service where you are able to obtain advice but is not for the purposes of referrals to initiate claims under your healthcare policy"

I wish I could give 0 stars
I’m absolutely devastated by our experience with General & Medical. We took out a policy for my son because he was starting a two-year football college course, and I made it crystal clear from the very beginning that sports injury cover was essential. It was the main reason we chose this policy and trusted this company.
Now, when we actually need the policy, they’ve refused to help. My son suffered a knee injury, and his GP referred him for a scan — but the claim was declined because “sports cover isn’t included.”
To make matters worse, when we asked them to provide evidence or documentation showing that this cover was excluded, we were ignored several times. No explanation, no clarification — just silence. For a company dealing with people’s health and wellbeing, this lack of communication is unacceptable.
We feel completely misled. I was very clear that we needed sports cover, and I would never have taken out this policy had I been told otherwise. My son is now unable to attend college because of his injury, and what should have been an exciting new chapter for him has turned into months of pain, stress, and disappointment.
We trusted Howdens General & Medical to be there when it mattered, but instead we’ve been left feeling abandoned and ignored. If you’re considering a policy with them DON'T. Sadly, when we needed support the most, we were left on our own.
No point trying to speak with their customer service teams or call, they all say the same and its a complete waste of time to resolve. This really is a typical insurance company where they avoid paying a claim no matter what.

I will never ever go with them again
I will never ever go with them again. One missed payment that they tried to take out which was OVER my actual monthly payment, second them they tried to take out double my monthly payment, then they've taken 3 times my monthly payment, I was never told that if I missed a payment they would take double next time and a £20 late fee charge which has now left me with £16 for 2 weeks. I am livid that it was never disclosed to me that late fees and extra months would be taken out, they have no care for people with learning difficulties, I even explained that reading the policy would be very difficult for me, I'll never use them again. Absolutely devastated they have done this, especially as a disabled single mother of 4 children who originally joined G&M because of my disabilities. Highly not recommended.

Yet another woeful experience with…
Yet another woeful experience with General and Medical. The old adage of you pay your money and take your choice clearly applies here.
I have had PMI for more than 30 years and made the mistake of swapping to GandM on advice of a broker who said, although cheaper than some providers, they offer a reasonable service: they don’t.
Claim process is archaic and appears designed to make claiming so slow and difficult some people will give up.
All other PMIs I have used have medically trained staff on their claims lines who are able to give rapid decisions on claims; G&M has claims advisors who pass on claims (once extensive tick box forms and referrals have been processed) to their underwriters for a slow decision. I know all insurers go out of their way not to pay claims; G&M have turned this into a slow, low tech art form.
Suffice to say if you want something slick, efficient and professional go to Bupa et al. If you are happy with a pseudo NHS experience G&M is ideal.

Poor Response, not what we're paying for, a third rate service
Here I am on day 8 after submitting my request to see a specialist via the claims portal and it still hasnt had a decision.
G&M advise it might take 5 working days to have your claim processed... NOTHING takes 5 working days in the digital age.
That harks back to postal mail .
Imagine , if you were diagnosed with something really worrying, but believed your premium private health insurance would get you a scan or to see a Consultant within a week.
Well it might do , but it won't be with General & Medical .
Buck up your ideas General & Medical. If only you were as efficient in actually delivering your service as you are taking the money for it .
(Late edit) after posting this review they responded at 17.15....funny that .
