All my claims were rejected for 3 years. Then, I received a text from PolicyX team, who noticed that my claims hadn't been settled. They managed to get my claims settled, totalling ₹4.5 L. I really appreciate the efforts of the PolicyX advisors for their support in settling my claims.

I highly appreciate the help of the PolicyX team for settling my claim of Rs. 5 Lakhs with zero deductions. I took a policy online from them in March 2024. As a customer, it's been a great experience throughout the process.

Priti Varshney

I'm very satisfied because my claim of over ₹2 L has been settled as a result of your team effort. However, I was very upset with the insurer, who delayed the claim for almost 2 months. But with your support and interaction, the claim was settled within 30 days & I appreciate it a lot.

PolicyX has been a savior during a medical emergency in my family recently. My wife was admitted in the hospital, and the insurance company declined my claim request. The PolicyX team handled the situation very well and I received the claim right on time.

Vijay Rathod

I purchased a health plan for the very first time and the support by PolicyX is commendable. They helped me with the paperwork, explained the policy details to me with patience and supported me at every step of policy buying. A big thanks to you guys.
