Dear insurance sifu,
My family is buying insurance for my mom.
Age 69. Non-smoker. Healthy.
At first, AIA agent quoted us RM6552 per annum.
Plan: ILP, A-Plus Med, Sum assured RM18k, R&B RM100, Cover till age 100
Later, when we agreed to proceed with the application, the agent told us there is changes to the premium. New premium, RM6996 per annum.
Plan: ILP, A-Plus Med, Sum assured RM6k, R&B RM100, Cover till age 100
Increase of RM444 on the premium and the sum assured becomes lower by RM12k.
I asked the agent why the increase in the premium and lower sum assured. The reason given is, for the 1st quotation the premium is until 80 y/o. After that, the premium will increase sharply for age 81 onwards. The 2nd quotation premium will remain the same until 100 y/o (understand that premium might increase slightly in the future due to inflation but we will omit this to simplify the matter).
1. Is this true? Can the premium in quotation be adjusted for until 80 y/o and increase sharply after that?
2. A-Plus Med brochure shows coverage is until age 100. Therefore, I assume this should imply that premium quoted is for until age 100 and will remain the same throughout the policy duration (minus inflation).
Appreciate your kind advice on this.
Thanks.
1. Yes, cost of insurance will sharply increase from 81 to 100
2. Premium will be the same as per quote
Better decide fast as your last entry age is approaching.
