1 starTerrible company. They dont tell you if your an agent they own your business. When your a commissiond sales person and you bring in business and get paid, then the cancel or mishandel the business, they file a vector which interferes in you doing business. This is not fair or right. There ethics are questionable.Review fromJennifer H

If the agent had told me the truth I would not have opened the policy!!! The agent told me they would help find a dentist that offered the services I need and they don't help at all with that what they do is send you a list that is worthless so far I have spent over 50 hours searching dentist on this list and the services they offer and it's been a huge waist of my time and money I've paid 13 months for this insurance have not been able to use it

Dental coverage with Physicians Mutual offers the flexibility of seeing any dentist you choose. To minimize out of pocket expenses for customers, we do recommend in-network providers where customers save an average of 36% on covered services. We can assist in locating in-network providers near you; however, your plan of care and the treatment/services you need remain decisions you and your selected provider decide on. The policy provides benefits for the 400+ covered procedures shown in schedule of benefits and can be viewed online at www.PhysiciansMutual.com.Review fromLaura F

My brother recently passed. I received a call from this company but when I called back - I got nothing but the runaround. I recently chatted and the guy "John W*****" just exited the conversation when I asked a question. When I called - the girl just hung up on me. I'm not sure how I find out anything about this but their customer service stinks.Physicians Mutual Insurance Company

Please accept our condolences on the loss of your brother. We are sorry you did not immediately receive the service you needed. Online Chat is a feature our Agents use. To get you to the customer service area, we needed to transfer your call. We apologize if you were disconnected during that effort. To quickly resolve the matter, simply call customer service directly at 1-800-228-9100.Review fromL. M.

I have had nothing but the run around from this company trying to set up dental insurance. I sent in a voided check for them to set up automatic bank payments. Then I was told that the bank denied this and I needed to call the bank. I called bank and they said they never received any notification for setting that up. I called Physicians Mutual again and spoke to a different person. Got another run around about how the bank has denied it. I explained everything to this woman and got nothing accomplished; GOT NOWHERE. I'm done. This is ridiculous. Signed, EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED. I will look into another company. I would like to leave zero stars.Physicians Mutual Insurance Company

Thanks for letting us know about your conversation with the bank. We cannot speak to your bank on your behalf without your permission, but we will gladly join you on a three-way call to resolve the matter. Simply call your bank and then bring us in to your conversation.L. M.

No thank you. I'm done. This started with a problem with my agent trying to set this up for me several months ago and has just progressed from there. There was NO REASON for the bank to deny the request. Something is wrong here ??.Review fromApril B

I’m simply called for quote and decided that it was too expensive for me. Now, this company will not stop emailing me, and mailing me advertisements. They are relentless and so annoying! I had to block their emails and then the mailings began. I just want them to go away! I am reading the reviews and it appears that I dodged a bullet. So many 1 & 2 stars. They must rrrrreally suck!Physicians Mutual Insurance Company

It’s nearly impossible to cancel this dam policy! I have to snail mail a letter which I did but still no reply to cancelPhysicians Mutual Insurance Company

To prevent unintentional loss of valuable coverage, we request customers send cancellations in writing. However, if customers do not want to send a signed note to cancel, they can simply stop making premium payments and their policy will lapse.Review fromAllen L

I've had dental insurance through these crooks for almost 10 years, and each time I attempt to use it, I am told they underpaid what they said they would or weren't communicating with my dentist. I was sold their fraudulent insurance with the assurance I could use it "anywhere", and when 4 dental offices either had issues getting payment from them or couldn't get anything, I finally went to their network list and found a good office nearby. After my first several visits, even this office told me there were multiple issues with this company getting back to them, paying the claims, etc. I have paid nearly 4 grand in monthly payments to these criminals, and more than that to the offices they've been shorting. Whenever I try to cancel my policy, they tell me I need to "fax" a confirmation of cancellation. I don't own a fax machine, who does anymore? I haven't used anywhere near the amount I paid into them despite my best efforts, and I've been denied emergency dental care so many times due to this company. I have a mind to sue for the years of dental pain I've had to endure because of your inability to keep good rapport with your clients and your network!Physicians Mutual Insurance Company

For over 120 years, Physicians Mutual has focused on taking great care of customers, earning us a 95% Customer Satisfaction Rating. We are sorry to hear we have not met your expectations. To address your specific claim concerns, we will need to work with you directly for privacy reasons; however, an explanation of general insurance operations may help address a few of your questions. Our dental policies do not restrict customers to a network. Instead, we highly recommend considering and using network providers, as customers realize an average savings of 36% in the billed amount when doing so. This limits your out of pocket expenses. However, Physicians Mutual pays up to the amount shown in the schedule of benefits whether you choose a network provider or not. Many providers will file claims for you, though you can also file claims directly with us. To protect customers from unintended loss of coverage, we do ask for a signed cancellation request. However, we will gladly stop any automated premium withdrawals with a simple telephone call or notification. If you choose, the policy can be allowed to lapse with no other action needed. If you feel we have made a mistake on the processing of a claim or have other questions, please call us.Review fromDawn J

1 starHorrible experience dealing with Debbie in claims. As far as I'm concerned she should not be in the position she is in. My mother had 2 policies and she refused to pay out the one policy to the funeral home due to an issue with a family member. Instead of paying out these policies and letting us settle things in court she is allowing the one family member that changed the policies send in all kinds of receipts and saying she would have to pay this family member for what she "bought". This family member tried hiding this insurance policy so she could keep the entire money for herself. My mother passed Nov 6 and to this day March 19 she has still not released these policies saying it'll have to go to court. Nothing but games and going round and round with Debbie.Review fromSusanne W

1 starCalled the 18 times to cancel a senior dental policy after my father's death almost 2 months ago. Mail in a death certificate to the PO Box but they are still. Withdrawing from his account. Their phone hangs up on 12:00 into a 15:00 minute hold every time. They answer in 6 seconds if you are calling the sales line. No way to get a hold of anyone to cancel Hope their life insurance is better.
