Refund Policy

Clear. Fair. Transparent.

Full refund if your GP declines. Wallet credit if we can't reach you.

If the GP declines to issue a certificate, you get a full refund to your original payment method. If our doctor can't reach you, the full amount goes into your OMC wallet.

Our Refund Commitment

OMC Health operates on a simple principle:

You're never charged for a certificate the GP decides not to issue.

Clinical Independence

GP decisions are based on clinical appropriateness.

Fair Billing

Full refund when the GP declines or we can't proceed. Wallet credit when we can't reach you.

Transparent Process

Clear refund rules with no hidden conditions.

If the consulting GP determines that issuing a certificate is not clinically appropriate for your situation, you will not be charged.

We believe this is the fairest model for patients and ensures that every consultation is conducted with genuine clinical intent, not under financial pressure to receive a certificate.

When a Full Refund Is Provided

The consulting GP determines that a certificate is not clinically appropriate
The GP decides not to issue a certificate for any other reason, unless you gave false or misleading information
A GP is unavailable within a reasonable timeframe, and your consultation cannot proceed
OMC Health Platform technical error prevents consultation
Your booking is cancelled by OMC Health for any reason outside your control

These refunds are processed automatically and go back to your original payment method. You'll get an email confirming the refund and the reason.

When No Refund or Credit Is Provided

A certificate has been issued following your consultation and the clinical service has been delivered
You provide false or misleading information during the booking or consultation, and the GP declines
You cancel your booking after your consultation has commenced

If you believe a refund or credit has been denied in error, you may raise a dispute through our complaints process.

When You Receive a Wallet Credit

If our doctor can't reach you for your consultation, you won't receive a refund. Instead, we add the full amount you paid to your OMC wallet, so you can book again when you're ready.

Our doctor calls the phone number you gave us at least 3 times within 1 hour, and you don't answer

The phone number you gave us is wrong, disconnected or can't receive calls

You cancel your booking before the doctor calls you, while we're still within the estimated wait time shown at booking

Wallet credit is provided instead of a cash refund in these circumstances.

How Your Wallet Credit Works

Your wallet credit keeps the value of your original payment, ready for your next consultation.

It's worth the full amount you paid, including any add-ons

We email it to you as a code, with its expiry date shown

It doesn't expire

You can use it once, on any certificate type

If the next booking costs more, you pay the difference. If it costs less, unused credit isn't refunded or carried over

It can't be exchanged for cash. If you dispute the original payment with your bank, the credit is cancelled

If you use wallet credit and the GP declines that booking, we'll return the credit to your wallet. We'll also refund anything you paid on top to your original payment method.

OMC Health gives a full refund when the GP declines to issue a certificate. It also refunds when platform or availability issues stop the consultation, or when OMC Health cancels the booking for reasons outside the patient's control. If the doctor can't reach the patient, or the patient cancels before the call, the full amount goes into the patient's OMC wallet. Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method according to the timeframes stated in the refund policy.
