To the person who commented on the glasses - EVERY insurance company is this way..every business is this way in terms of the goods or services they offer. When it comes to general insurance guidelines, a claim is processed (paid) based on the date you are (1) dispensed your product - aka you take them home, and (2) the date you pay for your purchase. Not the day you submit your claim. Not the day you 'place your order'.
Think about it from a business perspective - if claims were paid based on the date you 'order your glasses' then you could have your claim paid, and 'cancel your order'. If claims were paid based on the date you submit your claim, people would wait months to submit but always purchase when they were not infact entitled to the purchsase. And who pays for your glasses?? Yes it is the insurance company, but where does the insurance company get the money? Your employer. Many small businesses also pay out each time an employee makes a claim. So if you submit a claim for $200, your employer is billed $200 on their next premium invoice..I've owned a business and I have dealt with all types of insurance plans and this type does exist.
In reality, it's common sence, and you are the one at fault if you can read a simple contract or ask your employer questions,... at the end of the day, it's your employer paying insurance company the premiums, so if everyone did what you are stating, then your employer would be out hundreds or thousands of dollars in premiums..
People always think their getting scammed when they don't get their way, but its really one business trying to protect another, and trying to protect their assets and revenue and avoid scams. Insurance companies aren't trying to withold their money from you, their trying to ensure they and your employers aren't being abused by people like you.
This insurance company is absolutely brutal. I hope somebody reads this and decides to think twice about dealing with them. Customer service is very unhelpful and rude, and barely answers the questions you're asking. They definitely do just about anything they can to reject your claim.
Shame on you guys!
I agree with the below comments as I've had a few claims come back and it goes back and forth until they finally process your claim. I recently moved companies and they told me that they wouldn't accept my claim because it depends on when you receive your contact lenses versus when you submit and actually pay for your order???? I've never heard of this and quite frankly think it's BS. Better off not paying into their plans and paying your own way through.
They have multiple layers of forms to fill out before they will process a claim.And if you miss any detail it is denied and sent back.
Enough to frustrate the most patient and organized accountants in the world....
I have coverage through my employer and every time I see an ad for them I hope people read these reviews as I would never deal with them if I had the option.
The only reason I continue to go through their processes is that I won't let them win.
I have co-workers who just don't bother anymore.
Manulife works hard to not pay your claim. I have had to call repeatedly about claims made for dental costs and I am advised to resubmit or told that code is not covered. So 50% usually equates to 20% if I'm lucky. there is no customer service wanting to make the process seamless and hassle free. It's hoop jumping so they do as little work as possible in hopes I am sure that the customer becomes frustrated and gives up.
This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. They put a clause in the insurance because I said that I had a sore right arm blocking any medication that could be used to heal this that means no pain killers no antiinflamatories. So basically all Im covered for is antibiotics. If you want your money back because it is something that is not related then you have to fill out a bunch forms gather your reciepts and get a letter from your doctor. They work on the idea that most people who can afford these policies that it is not worth your time to do this.
Don't expect them to give value for the money. Nor expect them to be truthful - they say one thing and them deliver another. Also their customer service personnel either don't know anything or they are just playing dumb - stalling you hoping you'll give up and stop trying. Sold the stock - telling every body about how shitty Manulife really is.
Our daughter has a heart murmur for which she has never received any treatment or medical intervention. Manulife has only recently allowed our her two siblings to be covered on our group insurance plan, after a full year of waiting. We have had to jump through all sorts of hoops and still our daughter, who doesn't even have to take antibiotics when she visits the dentist, is not a recipient of our family's benefits.
When I do contact Manulife they try to imply that they have no record of my husband's policy, because they never include his certificate number on any correspondence that we've received. I'm curious as to how they suppose that I'm receiving correspondence from them, because they certainly seem to have at least our address! I am very unimpressed with this company and their lack of desire to help.
He/she put me on hold for about 15 minutes and when they came to say they couldn't help me, the customer service representative, (admittedly I was angry by this point), pretended that he/she couldn't hear me. I demanded their name, and they simply continued to pretend that they couldn't hear me. I demanded to speak to a manager, and they continued the game of not being able to hear me....even fading their voice so that maybe I might think that the connection was fading out. I hung up and phoned back and guess what? The customer service rep that I got this time, could hear me just fine! And she was able to help me, quickly, I might add!
I get it, it's not fun to deal with an angry and frustrated customer and I was hopping mad, but just pass me off to management rather than implying that I don't know what I'm talking about or playing games with me!
Sadly the experiences that I've had when I've had to contact Manulife have more closely resembled my encounter with the fading out customer service rep rather than the lady who I later spoke with.
I just want our daughter, who is eight and as healthy as a horse to be taken care of! It's been over a year of waiting!
This company makes it difficult for you to claim anything, even if you have fulfilled all terms and conditions. My claim got rejected because I did not submit an "itemized receipt" despite the fact that this was submitted. They must have not been reading or they lost the document and decided to put the blame on the customer.
Manulife is by the worst benifits u can have and there website works like s... dont recommend Manulife to any human being there dumb.
