Hello, Sir, I bought a policy from TATA AIG in october 2010,policy no. "u031246134" for Rs50000.00.The advisor told me that i will recieve the policy documents within 1 month meanwhile i called the agent several times for my bond each time she gave me false assurance that they were on the way ,I kept waited for 45days but hadn't recieved the policy so finally I asked the agent to cancel my policy due to bad services rendered to me and asked her refund the complete amount as it was in "FREELOOK" period they canecelled my policy and sent out a cheque of Rs 46350.34.I lodged acomplaint in their branch for incomplete refund they assured me that remaining amount of Rs 3633.60 will refunded later . My ordeal started from there I made several complaints for the remaining amount but they are making fun of mee and keep harrassing me, all this caused a lot of mental agony and harrassment by this insurance company because they are not folowing the "IRDA RULE THAT A CUSTOMER CAN CANCEL HIS OR HER POLICY WITHIN 15DAYS IF HE OR SHE IS NOT SATISFIED WITH POLICY TERMS". I made severals complaint to concerned authorities to address my grivences but noone is paying any heeds to my pain ,so I request you to take some strict action against this errant company to get my remianing hard earned money Rs 3633.60 along with the judicial monetary compensation for the inconvenience caused to me from the last 7months .Plz I request you as I saved that money for my daughter's future and due their callous attitude i can not buy a new policy from a reputed insurance company I am "UNEMPLOYED " FROM LAST 4 MNTHS . "PLZ. HELP ME "

Who frames the rules, conduct and terms for insurance policies: Finance ministry or IRDA or insurance companies themselves?? Most of the govt insurance companies discontinue the cover under personal accident and health insurance after insured reaches particular age. Who has approved such policies? Pl. give copy of circular in this regard issued by or approved by Dept. of Financial Services, Insurance Division. 7. Most of the general insurance companies offer cashless card for health cover. But they or their TPA approves this card and sanction limits to hospital against request for cashless approval. a] Whether as per government guidelines prior approval is necessary ?? Pl. give relevant copy of circular. b) Can insurer / TPA ask for copies of policy/ policies inspite of insured carrying valid cashless card and getting admitted in approved panel hospital Even if he possesses cashless card or original copy of latest valid policy document? c) Can insurer ask for 6 to 10 years of policy documents? Is insured suppose to keep old policy documents? If yes then for how many years. d) With in what time frame in the approvals for cashless admission/ treatment / hospitalization must be given by insurers as per the guidelines of govt/ IRDA? Give copy of same. e) If the cashless approval does not come and patient has been admitted in emergency and is not in his home town and is unable to get funds then what is a remedy for such cases?? f) Have u fixed some penalty / cancellation of licence for erring insurers / TPA’s and what is a procedure? g) Whether settlement of claim depends on latest policy terms or is based on old policies too??? In accounts we carry forward all debits and credits to latest balance sheet. And the latest balance sheet reflects the true and latest status/ balances of anyone. Same way the latest policy should contain all limitations/ exclusions / what company will pay, what is the percentage of expenses allowed per day on room etc. But insurers / TPA’s ask form insured copies of old policy documents?? Pl. give copy of relevant documents / govt guidelines/ IRDA guidelines on this issue.
