Customer Care

Complaints

BHSF takes all matters regarding customer service and complaints handling particularly seriously. We hope that any disagreements, misunderstandings or queries can be resolved fairly, quickly and amicably at the time they are raised. However, we understand that in some instances, an issue cannot be concluded immediately or satisfactorily. In these cases, the individual is entitled to escalate their concerns to a formal complaint.

Contact us for the following products/services

FCA regulated products/ services

This includes the following products/ services: Health Cash Plans, Care4 (Life insurance), Plan4Life (Cancer cover), Pay4Sure (Sick pay insurance), Personal Accident and dedicated Physiotherapy Plans.

The first step, should be to Contact Us, where we may be able to fully look into the matter immediately and resolve everything amicably straight away. However, if we’re not able to do so, a complaint can be escalated to the Customer Care Team where:

  • A dedicated case handler from our Customer Care Team will take ownership.
  • We will contact the eligible complainant to discuss the concerns raised.
  • They will receive a prompt acknowledgement in writing (post or email).
  • A full investigation will be conducted.
  • Our written ‘Findings & Resolution’ will be sent within 8 weeks, although we aim to resolve any concerns much sooner.

The Customer Care Team can be contacted directly at:

Email: [email protected]
Letter: 13th Floor, 54 Hagley Road, Birmingham, B16 8PE
Telephone: By asking to speak to them when ringing our Helpdesk on

In the event an individual is not satisfied with the Customer Care Teams overall resolution and potential offer(s), they are able to refer the complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) for independent adjudication. Such adjudications are binding on BHSF and will be complied with fully.

Anyone is able to ask the FOS general questions regarding complaints at any time, but we would like to hear from you first to see if we can resolve everything quickly beforehand. The FOS is free of charge, but please note that all individuals have 6 months from the date of our ‘Findings & Resolution’ to refer a complaint to the FOS.

The FOS can be directly contacted at:
