Charged twice after being promised one letter
I requested proof of address letters from the practice a couple of weeks ago. I was informed that my partner's name and mine could be included in a single letter, which would mean paying only one fee of £25. However, when I followed up several times for updates, I received inconsistent responses—sometimes being told the letters were not yet ready, and other times being informed that I would need my partner's written authorisation to collect them on their behalf. When I returned today with the authorisation letter, I discovered that two separate letters had been issued instead of the combined letter I had been promised. I have also had difficulties with the appointment booking process at this practice previously. Today's experience with the proof of address letters has left me frustrated, particularly given the discrepancy between what was initially promised and what was ultimately delivered. I would suggest considering other GP practices if service quality is important to you.
