They are priced as a pair, fitted, with a full diagnostic hearing assessment, a bespoke fitting by a HCPC-registered audiologist, a free 30-day home trial and a VIP aftercare package included. Our hearing aid prices page explains every figure, and 0% interest-free finance is available.
Do you work for a manufacturer?
No. We don't work for manufacturers. We work for you. You and your audiologist choose the right hearing aid for your hearing and your life from any of the seven leading brands, never a device we are tied to selling.
Which hearing aid brands do you offer?
VIP Hearing Solutions offers all seven leading manufacturers: Phonak, Starkey, Oticon, Widex, ReSound, Unitron and Signia. Each has its own strengths, and your audiologist helps you choose the right one for your needs.
What types of hearing aids are there?
Behind-the-ear (BTE), receiver-in-canal (RIC, our most popular), in-the-ear (ITE), in-the-canal (ITC), invisible-in-canal (IIC) and the extended-wear Lyric. Our guide to the types of hearing aids compares every style.
What are invisible hearing aids?
Hearing aids that sit deep in the ear canal and cannot be seen in normal wear, such as IIC devices and the extended-wear Phonak Lyric. Our invisible hearing aids guide explains who they suit best.
What is the difference between Essential, Advanced and Premium hearing aids?
Essential, Advanced and Premium are our three hearing aid technology levels. Essential suits quieter, more predictable settings; Advanced handles busier, more varied days; Premium processes sound most fully, for clear speech even in noisy environments. Your audiologist will explain each level, and you decide on the right one together.
Do your hearing aids have Bluetooth?
Yes. Most modern hearing aids stream calls, music, podcasts and television straight from your phone or TV, and can be adjusted from an app. Your audiologist will show you the models that suit you, including the latest AI hearing aids.
Are rechargeable hearing aids available?
Yes, across most brands and styles. You charge them overnight for a full day's power, with no fiddly batteries to change or buy.
Is there a free trial before I buy?
Yes. Every fitting at VIP Hearing Solutions includes a free, no-obligation 30-day home trial, so you can experience your hearing aids in your everyday life before you decide to keep them.
What aftercare is included?
Every fitting includes a VIP aftercare package, Core (2 years), Gold (3 years) or Diamond (5 years), covering adjustments, servicing and ongoing support. There is no separate aftercare charge within your package.
How do I choose the right hearing aid?
You don't have to choose alone: we decide together. At your assessment we measure your hearing precisely, talk through your lifestyle and priorities, and explain the brands, styles and technology levels that suit you, drawing on our knowledge of all seven leading manufacturers. The free 30-day home trial then lets you confirm the choice works for you.
Can I pay for hearing aids in instalments?
Yes. Ask us about 0% interest-free finance, which spreads the cost over manageable monthly payments so the right hearing aids need not wait.
What is the difference between NHS and private hearing aids?
NHS hearing aids are free and clinically effective but come in a limited range. Private hearing aids give you the choice of all seven brands, the latest technology, invisible and custom styles, a bespoke fitting, a free trial and years of personal aftercare. See our full NHS vs private hearing aids guide.
