Careington Reviews

I purchased this plan for my wife and I. About 8 months into it, I found out that our dentist no longer accepts the plan. I contacted Careington, and canceled. Since there was well over three months left on the program, that I would like a refund for the unused portion. They don't give refunds... You are stuck for the entire amount, whether you can use it or not.

Purchased a family plan after looking at the payment schedule they provided. There is a section called 'oral surgery' and lists procedures that only an oral surgeon, not a regular dentist, in New Jersey would perform. Total for exam, panoramic xrays and an easy tooth extraction with nitrous oxide (I thought it was going to be more complicated) should have cost around $200. Okay - So that is the 'average' with the discount they offer in my area. So why was I charged over $700? Because Careington say those prices are for a 'regular' dentist to perform those procedures. Why do they have Alveoloplasty, surgical removal of tooth roots, etc listed in their fee schedule for a regular dentist if regular dentists do NOT perform these procedures? SCAM!!! Beware of Careington plans. And if you go to a 'regular' dentist who will do special dental procedures like these, beware of them, too.

If you pay the year in advance, as I did, you can only get a refund if you cancel in the first 30 days. I paid the year in January, canceled in May, and I get ZILCH back. That should be unlawful. I didn't use the plan at all. Well, they got me this time. Never again.

I purchased the service in 2015. Prior to renewal in March, 2016, I called to cancel. I found out in Feb 2018 that they continued billing me in 2016 and 2017. They will not issue a refund. These crooks stole $174 from me. It's also my bad for not noticing the charges when they happened. Check your accounts, folks.

Lack of payment of any kind over a year, despite 48?? premium paid on time monthly. Note (Waiting Period not Met). How long is waiting p. 19 years? This has been a total Rip Off! Would like to report to BBB & or Fraudulent Practices. Very disappointed. Would like to report this kind Business. Who do I contact; to report poor business makings?

I apply for one month member and Was satisfied that save like 100 dollars money, however after one year I was surprised that I’ve been charged 9.95 dollars per month for the whole year, I explained to them I didnt know it was auto renewal and ask for a refund but they reject per their terms and conditions.

This company charged me 230% of what discount dental should cost. They list it for $9 per month and were charging me $23. They then increased their rate to $27 per month without even telling me. So be warned that they will change the rate without letting you know. I don't even know how this is legal. Finally as a service, it does not offset your bill. For almost all cases you save very little. I would not recommend getting this service.

I was not notified of the end of my contract with them. I didn't know that they were going to charge my bank for almost $300.00. Called the office, was told I had to write a letter to get my money back. I shouldn't have to write anything as I didn't know that my contact had ended for the end. Why that much money.

I requested that my account be cancelled on multiple times and they still continued to charge my bank account. Every time I called to complain they just pushed me off to another department or hung up on me. Never use this company, it's just not worth the struggle.

Everything about Careington is fraud. They give you an advertised $250 ballpark fee for a typical root canal. I go to dentist and of course I need a more expensive root canal (molar). OK, after searching fine print, Careington says it will be $450 range. I call 2 local dentists in the program, give them my ID # and tell them my referring dentist says I need root canal procedure 3330 and they agree on phone. Price is in $450 range. I arrive at dentist next day and without even looking at my tooth, they said my price will be $850 (but yesterday on the phone it was $450). They added bogus consultation fees which Careington does not cover and they said Careington won't cover a periodontist to do root canal.

Went to the dentist in September, Careington provided new cards for the visit and never mentioned needing updated credit card info. They received a notice of pending charges for my procedure, but in Oct since my credit card expired in September they just cancelled my plan and never notified me. Meantime I had the dental procedure apparently uncovered in October and Careington didn't care, they even told the dentist I cancelled the plan which is a lie. Very sneaky and fraudulent, I never received a request for updated credit card information or a cancellation notice by mail, email or phone, and I never missed a payment since 2013!

Customer service was very helpful in explaining the ins and outs of this discount plan to me, and they walked me through the process of how to get the most out of this plan. The claim processing time was a breeze to go through with no down time involved whatsoever, fluid is the best term for it. The process took very little time and effort on my part and their part, everything was in order from start to finish, and every was happy with results. The value of The Careington discount dental plan is priceless, and the Careington discount dental plan was a heaven-sent solution to my dental situation. The cost was easily one of the best values that I have seen in years, for most dental plans are somewhat untouchable for the average consumer to handle.

One of the best I have ever seen. A warm smile that greets you and lets me know they actually care about me as a customer and not a number. The claims are finished in a professional time frame. You will have no problems here. Extremely great service that provides the best value a customer could ask for. Down to earth, friendly service and this helps you feel at ease. This is probably the biggest strength this company has: the different networks will have the plans that fit your needs and fits the needs of your family.

They have fantastic customer service and support that is second to none! They are very helpful and go out of their way to help the customer in any way they can! They have a very friendly staff workers and ensure the best quality service available. The claims processing is very fast and easy to file. Claims are handled quickly and process effortlessly! I've never had any problems with any type of dental claims that I've had to file. Staff is knowledgeable with the claim filing process.

The customer service was great. They gave me the attention I needed and made me feel like my questions and business were important to them. It took about the amount of time I expected it to take. No more no less. But that's ok. It was worth every second because of the wonderful product they offer. The value of these products that I receive was fantastic. Not only that but the value that I felt I had because of the way I was treated. I think they had a great amount of options. Often too many is overwhelming but they offered me just what I needed and it was great. I was very satisfied.

The staff was outstanding and so courteous. The doctors were real professional. For in my life I wasn't scared, it was a great experience. The claims processing was smooth as can be. The insurance paid its part and I paid a small copay which I didn't mind at all. So on all in all it was a good experience that's why I recommend it. I was happy with the service. I had a cleaning x-rays and check up and exam all at once. I found a dentist in the network close to home. What a surprise. Good one at that. Value for your money, easy claims service with good customer services. Can't go wrong.

I love their customer service! Not one person I spoke to was rude. Everyone was so friendly and so knowledgeable they seem like experts! The claim process time is a bit lengthy, however it is very easy to follow, and has little steps that need to be taken in order to get your claim processed. The value for the money is great! It is an outstanding service and needs little to no input from your part. All claims are settled quick and fairly. The network options are so broad, or at least in my area, very little clinics were not covered by this insurance company. And the ones that weren't, were not my cup of tea.

The customer service is pretty amazing, you wanna make sure you get what you're asking for. Overall you shouldn't have too much of a problem with it the way I see. The process time is definitely something you may get mad over, it's only because the time usually takes longer than what is said about it, but you wanna make sure you're getting exactly what you wanted so just wait on the time. It will go by. The value is gonna suck but you wanna make sure it's exactly what was guaranteed. So don't worry about the value. In the end it's gonna be just what your money paid for. I'm always happy when it comes to the understanding of the network part. There are plenty of options on what you would like to do but you have to be very careful in considering what is right to do.
