TBH that's why their premium are cheap when you first sign as it's renewable.I am in a similar situation. I bought a critical illness and death policy and have been paying 200+ for more than 10 years. I pay my premium every month. Suddenly this month I received a sms that my premium is overdue. After logging into the portal, I found the monthly premium to be 400+. Contacted my agent and he checked. The insurance company up the premium at the end of 2023. Now suddenly I owed premium that is close to 1K.
400+ is too much for me to bare. Can imagine when I reach 65 and they ask me to pay 1K each month. Might as well give them my CPF Life.
(I am sure they sent me letters about the change. I am sure I torn the letter without even opening it.....lolx)
I've encoutered this before. Then i straight up ask the agent, can you give me another quote that is not renewable but fixed rate till 65/75. The rates are very different...
Agent will bait you with the cheap rate with renewable insurance but you have to do your due deligence. For now just bite it and stay all the way, bobian already
