is a very important document. It is use when your policy have lapses
and you need to revised the policy due to not paying the payment
(premium) on time.
When
you fill up this form make sure you are telling the truth and you
have read this form before you put your signature on it .
I will advice you to read it
properly don't care who ask you to sign it.
Please don't trust anyone
because it is you who will face the problem years later.
The
person who ask you to sign this form may not have read it, he/she can
be your agent or the insured company customer service. Sometime
as human we forget the backfire of signing it without really
understanding . By signing this it is like you are buying a new
policy.
To revised your policy you
must sign it . What you write in it is very important as years latter
if you have not declare about your work ,health problem you will be
in trouble, anything which bring risk to you it can even be your
risky sports or hobbies, so please read it before you sign it.

A
True Story
Madam
Rose bought a policy in 2001 her policy lapsed on
11th
September 2011, She revised the policy on 12 November 2011 and sign a
Health Warranty. In June 2013 she was diagnosed breast cancer and
her left breast was removed in November 2013.
She
made an Insurance claim and after all the medical reports her
medical claim was reject and her policy was cancel .
Why
This Happen
In
October 2010 Rose was diagnosis with High blood pressure and
diabetic. Rose have gone to the insured office with her son to
revised her policy .
Her son had fill up the
Health Warranty form without asking the mother about her health ,
the customer service officer have not advice Madam Rosy about the
backfire she will received if she is not careful.
Now
whom to blame for this?
As you are responsible to
disclose everything before you sign any form.
How often do you read
everything before signing any document. It can even be your agent
who ask you to sign it, as a human he can also make a mistake.
The
best thing is try not to lapsed your policy.
