If yes, do not worry.
With a head-start in technology capabilities, HDFC Life is ensuring every customer is serviced amidst the 21 day lockdown. Its digital platforms are designed to address all your life insurance needs from the comfort of your home. You can visit www.hdfclife.com if you want to purchase a policy. And if you are an existing customer, you can service your policy, ask queries and even carry out transactions via this digital platform. You can actually manage your policy without having to visit a branch.
The Company has done the following arrangements to meet customer requirements:
Premium payment
IRDAI has advised insurers to extend the grace period for premium payments. In view of the same, HDFC Life has facilitated a 30 day extension to the grace period for renewal premiums due in March 2020. Customers may also choose to pay the premium before expiry of the extended grace period. But take my advice; never delay your insurance premiums, unless you have to.
