This is real from Chartis but as far as I know you need to manually register via sms to activate the policy. First time I heard they send sms asking for activation instead.

Yes, maybank do has this promo.

I did receive a sms than informed me that MC (or was it Direct Access, can't remember) providing protection plan for their cardmembers some time last year thru chartis. But when chartis called me, I just told them I not interested as I do not like deal over the phone with people I cannot confirm are genuine.

Chartis also called me once claiming they are EON Bank offering some insurance plan few months back. Gave them a piece of my mind as I knew it wasn't EON bank that called me.

Anyway, if you are buying insurance policy offered with a particular credit card, please take note if a insurance plan was jointly promoted with the card issuer and the insurance policy, you may have problem transferring the premium payments to another card should you want to cancel the credit card .

For your reference:

this is real, since u did not provide them with anything, just enjoy the free card protection plan for a year

come next year, u will receive a letter asking to renew, ignore that unless u want to renew

my freeppp expired on feb, what is the renewal fee?

not sure, i thk i threw away the letter without looking thoroughly
and i also received their telemarketeer's call

anyone knows whether Chartis / AIG is still offering this advantage on any credit cards now?

i subscribed once and found out its sounds stupid for purchasing something through telemarketing then immediately terminate after getting a proper coverage with Pru.
