Thanks William Russell
Everyone at William Russell has been fantastic. Going through medical treatment is stressful enough without the added worry of whether or when the insurance company will pay. With William Russell, that worry simply wasn’t there. Their claims team felt more like friends and family—supportive, reassuring, and genuinely caring. Payments were quick and straightforward, arriving directly in our bank account without hassle. Their support made a difficult time so much easier, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Excellent Service/High Premium Renewal
I am writing this review to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service provided by William Russell over the past 12 months. The support we have received throughout my wife's serious health condition has been truly excellent. Navigating a serious illness is challenging, but your company has made the insurance process seamless and stress-free.
However, the only disappointment we experienced was the 29% premium increase for 2025/26, which we felt was significantly higher than a standard rate adjustment. I worry this may set a precedent for future renewals, making the premiums difficult to manage in the long term. I hope this will not be the case as we move forward.
Despite this, I would also like to extend a personal and heartfelt thank you to Cosmina Gradinaru "International Claims Executive" She has been a constant source of support, making every interaction easy and personal. Cosmina's professionalism and empathy are a credit to your company, and her dedication has made a significant difference to our family during a difficult time.

Thank you so much for submitting for your 5 star review, we’re delighted to hear how pleased you are with the service that you and your wife have received. We understand the complexities experienced when dealing with a serious illness and we know the importance of having a dedicated claims expert, there to support and help navigate you and your family with any concerns at a challenging time. We’ve passed your gratitude and thanks to Cosmina who was thrilled to receive this and as always, she and the team continue to be here to support you all.
We understand your concerns with regards to your premium increase. We’re experiencing higher claims costs in a number of countries as the cost of health care continues to grow and alongside this, the increasing demand for international quality private care, ever increasing advances in technologies as well as the types of treatments available being contributing factors.
Again we sincerely thank you again for taking the time to review your experience which means a lot to us - we continue to be here for you and your family.
Always so helpful
I've been navigating a really difficult situation regarding my brother's various medical issues and his disability insurance. Maggie has been so supportive and helpful throughout the whole process, guiding me when I've faced issues that are completely out of my comfort zone. I would wholeheartedly recommend.

Bad insurance company
I’ve been using the insurance for years, even though the increase of 25% yearly. When I needed to use it, they decided that the small surgery that I made was not covered. I don’t recommend at all.

Thank you for submitting your review and we’re sorry you initially experienced an error in the payment of a recent claim. Following our correspondence with you the same day, we’re pleased that this has now been resolved to your satisfaction and you’re happy with the outcome. We strive to offer outstanding customer care at all times as our members expect. Thank you again for getting in touch with us, we appreciate your feedback.
25% premium increase
I was a customer for a year. I never filed a claim so I am not judging on that. Yet the company increased my premium by +25% from one year to another on the basis of inflation and Covid. I am 32 years old, not a single pre existing condition nor claim in the past. Either the company is ripping off their customers, or it's a predatory pricing strategy for people who don't look too much into it (or care). Some competitors provide better coverage for a better price.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We do understand your concerns regarding increases in premiums. In many countries, the cost of health care continues to grow. It is not just the cost of health care that impacts on premiums, increased demand for international quality private care and advancement in technologies and wider treatments available are also contributing factors worldwide. We do work very closely with our insurers to ensure any increase in premiums that we may have to impose is reasonable and justified. We thank you again for getting in touch, your feedback is very valuable to us.
Avoid
This is, without a doubt, the worst insurance company I’ve ever encountered—it was unfortunate to interact with them at all.
The agent who contacted me was incredibly insincere and came across as uneducated. When I disclosed that I have a common, non-threatening autoimmune condition, his entire demeanor shifted dramatically, as though I had revealed some unheard-of, highly contagious space HIV. Despite already securing coverage from another insurance provider, I sensed his unprofessionalism and decided to feign interest in proceeding just so I could document my experience here.
To make matters worse, the agent attempted to justify his behavior with what was clearly a fabricated sob story about his mother allegedly being unable to get insured for the same reason (If it wasn’t fabricated, I sincerely hope he isn’t using such a personal matter for manipulative sales tactics).

going down the drain
Seems like the company is slowly but surely going down the drain....
I am insured with them since 5-6 years and had 1-2 claims in the first year.
Since then the prices increased yearly by 15-20% telling me the inflation rate (of actual 5-7%) would be the reason.
I contacted them as a new customer and see there... If I am new I would get a 20% lower price. This clearly shows the company is not in a healthy state when ripping off existing clients which on top did not have any claim for 2-3 years!!
Will be using a more expensive company that gives you a fair pricing and service instead of using ridiculous dodgy marketing methods and ripping off existing customer.
Thanks for nothing!

WR simply load premiums for pre existing conditions without asking whether you wish to have the PEC covered or not - most insurers offer PEC cover as an option. When asked the reason they say due to the chief medical officer - so in effect the customer gets what the customer does not necessarily want - strange customer service strategy - this inflexibility sends a huge red flag for future claims

Thanks for your review. We review each application on a case-by-case basis. Sometimes we may exclude cover for a pre-existing medical condition, sometimes we may increase your premium but include cover for a pre-existing medical condition. In either case, we make it clear in your acceptance invitation the terms on which we can provide you cover. If you'd like to discuss this further, please drop us an email at contact@william-russell.com.
WALK AWAY from WR (aka William Russel)
If you are looking for a reliable, straightforward, effortless and trustworthy health insurance, just WALK AWAY from WR (aka William Russel). They have been asking for many documents from the doctors, doubting about their existence, doubting about the consultations our child had. Months later they still didn't reimburse us the few hundreds of dollars we paid from our pocket. I am talking about normal pediatrician consultation. I can't imagine the damage if it was more serious and more expensive. in a nutshell, don't rely or trust them at all !!!

Thanks for your review. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with us. I don't think there's much we can say that'll make you feel better about William Russell. We do require medical information from your treating doctor when we assess your claim, and there are sometimes reasons why we won't pay a claim. In your case, it sounds like we could have done better. Apologies again.
