For customers that bought their insurance through an FWD Life sales agent or any other FWD Life channel before 1 December 2020 or after 1 December 2020, please submit your claim by post.
We know that if you’re making a claim, you’re probably already going through a difficult time. So we think it’s part of our job to make insurance claims as quick and as easy as possible.
For personal as well as Employee Benefits claims, we aim to make a decision within 4-10 working days. This is from the date we receive your completed claims submission (including the form and any supporting documents).
Once we receive your claim application, personal claims applicants will receive an email notification from us, just so you know the process has started. For Employee Benefits claims, we’ll communicate through your HR team.
Do bear in mind that occasionally we need more time to make a claims approval decision. This could be for a number of reasons - for example the type of claim, how complex the case is, and whether we have all the information and documents we need.
When we approve claims, we then aim to pay within 2-3 working days.
You can see your claims status on the eServices menu via our FWD MAX app. You can also check by contacting our customer services team on 1500525 or by emailing CustomerCare.id@fwd.com.
We aim to complete the process within 14 working days (assuming we have all your documents). If any documents are missing, we’ll email to let you know.
For faster claims, you can use eServices available on the FWD MAX app. Your claim will then be processed within 5 working days. If you submit via eServices, you can also check the status of your claim, using the app. If you use eServices, we’ll notify you via the app to let you know if any documents are missing.
If you don’t submit a claim via eServices, you can still check the claim’s status by calling our customer services team on 1500525.
