Hi pumba,
Choosing between Simplicity and Simply Connect is the same decision I mull over every renewal date.
I was on Simplicity plan for the past 2 years and since my last renewal I switched to Simply Connect as it was reduced to 1100pa.
I see that Simply Connect will increase in price from 1st April 2019, to 1179pa.
The day to day cover is calculated as follows; 50% of 1000 expenses = 500.
I also see that Simplicity will be reduced to 1190pa from 1st April 2019.
The only reason for staying with Simplicity, is for the private room in a private hospital cover.
If this extra cover is not a priority for you, then it makes sense to switch to Simply Connect.
The child offer on Flex 125 Explore will be reduced to 319 from 1st April 2019, and still very good value.
The only alternative offer is Flex 125 Choice which will be part of the child special promotion where you pay for the 1st child and the rest
are free, from 1st April 2019. This plan includes good day to day cover with a 1 euro excess, if some of the children are age 6 or older when gp
visits are no longer free of charge.
It will be reduced from 571 to 505 from 1/4/2019.
