Hello
I have one of those policies that pay something towards dental and optical costs. I recently sent in a claim form along with a hand written receipt, which I have done several times before.
I have since heard from them saying they have carried out an audit and found that the receipt I sent is for a different amount than the dentist state.
Obviously I don't want to upset my dentist or the insurance company but nor do I like the implication that I'm up to something. The dentist say the receipt was for £70 but it was actually for £78. Any suggestions as to what I should do would be really appreciated. Many thanks

Your dentist will be used to patient's using this type of policy.
So take your receipt in and discuss the discrepancy with the receptionist/manager and take it from there - presumably they have told your insurer the wrong price!0 -
OK, thanks very much for the advice.0
