As soon as we receive your claim, we'll let you know. We'll do this within five working days of receiving your claim either via by SMS, email, or post (please allow for any postal delays via the mail service). If you’ve claimed via FWD Moments, our app, we offer instant tracking and for some plans, we can approve and pay out instantly.
If you’ve bought your plan via an agent, you’ll receive this notification from your agent, according to how they normally communicate with you.
If we need additional information from you, we’ll let you know – either by post or via your agent if applicable.
Your questions answered
We believe it's part of our job to make the claims experience as easy as possible. These are some of the questions you might have and the answers we can give you. If you’re unsure about anything, simply get in touch.
How will you pay me?
Once your claim is approved, we'll send a cheque. For some claims you can select your preferred payment method. If this is the case, we’ll highlight this on the claims form. If you’ve claimed via FWD Moments, for some plans, we approve and pay out instantly. You can then choose to receive payment straight to your bank account, via FPS, or at any MTR station 7-Eleven (using a QR code).
When will you pay me?
If you’ve claimed via FWD Moments, for some plans, we approve and pay out instantly.
If not FWD Moments, we aim to make a claims decision within 14 working days. However, occasionally we need more time to make a claims approval decision. This could be for a number of reasons - for example the type of claim, how complex the case is, and whether we have all the information and documents we need. When we approve claims, we then aim to pay within 10 working days.
Who do I speak to if I have a question on my claim?

Frequently asked questions
Yes. You can send in a claim by post.
For other options or for advice and support, please call our Service Hotline at +852 3123 3123. You can also visit the Claims section on our website for further information.
All claim forms should be signed by the policyholder.
The exceptions are loss of life (death) claims which need to be applied for by the beneficiary. Details can be found on the claims section of our website.
If the policyholder is also the insured person and is unable to sign the claim form, a close relative can complete the form on behalf of the policyholder. If this is the case, please advise us and state the relationship on the claim form. We sometimes request proof of this relationship.
