[Purchase Process] Very smooth and easy. From the moment I tried to sign up, to the confirmation was less than 5 minutes! Very clear options too! I found FWD rates to be one of the cheapest, probably due to their no frills setup (online only for signups, for the most part) [Terms & Conditions] It's clear enough; nothing I'm concerned about, and as I have bought many travel insurance packages from them, I have enough trust of them to sign up for this!0

[Claims Process] Seamless process to claim. Everything done online and the payout is quick too! [Hidden Terms] I like how they are transparent with their claims, whatever information is available online. You can even claim TCM treatment, which not all personal accident plan has it.0

I had a shoulder injury and made a claim for the medical bills via FWD,. The process is fuss free, everything online. Customer service was great, payment of the claim was speedy. I renewed the policy because of the great experience I had. I used just compare prices until I made a claim that I realized how important is the claim service.0

[Claims Process] This is my second review on FWD and this time i will be focusing on claims. I submitted my 1st PA claim on 15/9/20 to two insurer (FWD & other one is Sxxxx). Received my remibursement from Sxxxx on the same day (received in the evening via Paynow); For FWD, it took 8 work days to process and received my claim today (23/9). It is still acceptable timeframe, however the service standards from S**** does wow me!0

Compared various insurers and found out that FWD best meet my needs in terms of my desired coverage and coverage for spouse. Covering the 2 of us cost less than $80 (with some covid-19 period discount). Couldn’t comment much and the claim process (touch wood), but according to the app, it seems easy everything done via app. Touch wood again..0

[Claims Process] I have put up a claim on January, but until today they insist they want the airlines to proof the airline was wrong, so until today they don't compensate me at all, they can check with the airport standard procedure and the documents I submitted, but fwd insurance choose to deny my claim, and also they travel insurance is the lowestpay out, ( maximum only $300 Singapore dollars) confirmed by their claim officer joel, so if lost more than $300, you have to cry out the rest of your money.0
