Hai everyone. I need some opinions from all sifus on my current situation that im facing right now.
Before that im 30 yrs old and still single and currently im having two insurance policy from AIA which is:
1) WHOLE LIFE PLUS NONPAR = 100K (issued jun 2012)
2) A-LIFE LINK-i = 161k (issued jan 2016)

Both insurance i paid for rm161.2 and rm267 each which is to me quite an amount.

Yesterday, my old old friend which is an insurance agent with ABC company came to me and ask me to bring my policy book. So keep the story short he wants to offer me a new insurance policy which is better than what im getting right now. Plus the amount i'll be paying lesser. He ask me to surrender the policy that im having right now which to me is not a good idea.

Any advice sifus/gurus?

Kindly ignore the answer above by MNet. You don't simply just compare a product solely at the cost of insurance without weighing the benefit it comes with.

You should have a policy review done together with a financial health check to get a proper guide and advise. Speak to a life planner

Different company has different charges for travel insurance , you might have of shop around to find the one that suits your need.

You might not want to just focus on the cheapest. Anyway, not that many company has made their travel insurance easily bought from their website. I have bought from tune protect (not the air asia version, bought separately) and etiqa. So far buying experience is good.

Focus on the benefits that really matter when you choose. Some benefits may not be your focus.

Axa, aig, are also available to be bought online. Forgot which other company I surveyed online.

Hi,

Best to do a property policy review before making a decision. I wouldn't recommend you just surrender like that unless the proper due diligence has been done.

hope this helps.

Cheers.

You can consider between value for money vs cheapest. Travel insurance no matter how cheap also the price won't differ like few hundred ringgit, if another few extra 10 - 20 ringgit can give you a better deal compared to the cheapest plan. Then maybe consider spending slightly more for peace of mind.

AIA sifus. can you verify this
My wife bought a premium from an agent. I am afraid we lost the policy booklet. Couldn't find the brochure in Website.

Premier Critical Cover - Coverage is Critical illness and personal accident.

Question: Is this a standalone or investment linked?
