Appalling experience at every single step
Are people using a different service? It has 4+ stars on here, but I've always had an abysmal experience with them. I've been with them for 3 years with my employer, on vitality health.
1. The website has always been buggy, they have changed authentication method several times in the last 2-3 without informing anyone or just being very vague about it.
2. The app is probably the worst app from a big company I've ever used. Syncing points from the partners in the app has always been a nightmare, either it doesn't work for days or it takes ages. This has been a problem since day one for me and they keep having issues with it every now and then. How can you not have fixed a core feature in all these years amazes me.
I've lost rewards (which otherwise would even be nice rewards) countless times because of these issues.
3. The website seems designed by a team that has never heard of user experience. It's very confusing, basically useless to do most things and I often end up in loops when searching how to complete a task on there. Part of me believes they make it this hard to cut costs with rewards. Prove me wrong
4. Self service is non existent. You can't do a lots of things yourself in the website, and contacting them is a pain. e.g. linking my Waitrose card to vitality. There's no way to do that autonomously. Why?? Instead, I needed to contact them and get stuck in an endless back and forth for days when it could've taken minutes.
5. They lose emails very often. I've had at least a couple of occasions where my email was simply lost and they never got back to me.
Tl;dr: an extremely buggy and difficult experience across all platforms, appalling user experience and customer experience, and a tech stack that seems subpar. In short, an unpolished service that is seriously a source of frustration every single week. I would change provider in a second if it weren't up to my employer.
