Hi all,
I left my job end of June and started a new one mid-July. Old job had a VHI corporate scheme, new job doesn't so I got in on my partner's corporate plan to remain insured.
When I left my old company I asked HR whether I'd have to do anything about ending my membership and they said I didn't. I obviously should have chased this up because this afternoon I got a letter saying my plan was converted to Premium, my renewal date is in Feb and I have to basically pay for the rest of this term (>EUR2k). Letter says payment was due 3 September and is dated 4 September.
Before this letter I'd not received any other communication (email, call, SMS, app notification) that this would happen. Therefore my questions:
Is this legal for them to do? (Haven't checked my T&Cs yet as this literally just happened)
Has anyone experienced this, and what did you do?
Thanks
