Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can find a Dental Insurance plan better than
the one I found.  It's $39.95/mo and covers the entire family.  Every
family member receives up to $1,000 Per Year in PAYMENTS towards their
Dental Bills, on top of huge discounts.

PAYMENTS, real insurance reimbursement is what makes this plan
different from any other discount plans I have found.  This includes
the discounts at less per month than the Discount only plans and ALSO
PAYS YOU BACK IN FULL and pays every family member too.  This I find
very good.  If anyone has found anything better will you please call me
at:  888-660-0080

Here's the website where I found this amazing new plan.

Sounds great. Can you sign up for two months and get everything done?

EXCELLENT!

You reimbusrse me $18 for a prophylaxis. That is amazing. That means
my out-of-pocket expense will only be $2 as the dentist charges $20
for prophy.

I know ... this is so great. I can get
my teeth cleaned for $2.

Joel

Dentists do not charge more than $20
for teeth cleaning, do they?

***

By using our Discount Dentists, AND, by being reimbursed for what's
left, often YOUR NET COST will be Zero, or just a fraction of what you
would have paid without being a member of this plan.

    This is a strange product indeed.  They seem to bundle
all kinds of services together.  Obviously, the benefits stink--still,
I've never seen a program like this marketed to individuals.  More
shocking to me is that I saw a couple of participating dentists on the
list who I know.

But are those dentists REALLY on the list? I checked out my town, and
guess what -- they have ME listed on their panel! And this is the first
time I've heard of them.

The listings for my town have many duplications in the names. Most of
the dentists in the entire town are on this "list." It looks like a
simple compilation of names drawn from local phone books. Nobody asked
me if I wanted to join this "list."

The web site has this disclaimer by the lists of dentists:

"The list of providers is as current as possible but is subject to
change at any time. For this reason we require all members to call
member services at the toll free number listed in their membership
materials BEFORE setting an appointment."

This seems to me to be an excuse to steer the "member" to the few
dentists who actually sign up for the plan, as nearly every dentist in
town is listed on the website, even dentists such as myself who are NOT
members of the plan. Bait and switch??

I don't think SMD is a proper venue for this sort of misleading
advertising.

I don't think a public toilet wall is a good place for this sort of
misleading advertising. I am on the list as well! I also see a lot of towns
that don't exist, making me wonder if the names listed with those towns are
also a fabrication. What a load of crap.

    Well, I should say that this is worse than harmless spam.  They don't
have my name on the list, but I would certainly demand my name be
removed if it were.

Very useful though. I always like
deals on tires and rims with my dental care.

    Are you saying that you just happened to be looking for a dental plan to
buy and found this one and thought it was so great that you wanted to tell us
all about it?  Are you saying that you have no monetary interest in this
product?

  Are you saying that you are not a scumbag spammer?

Just so you know...I appreciate your efforts at reporting these...and also
appreciate the artful way you incorporate your comments into the spam offer.
It always brings a smile to my face!
