THESE ARE IMPORTANT POINTS FOR YOU TO REMEMBER:

  1. WAITING PERIODS

Persons covered under this policy have a six-month waiting period for death as a result of natural cause and twelve months waiting period for death by suicide. No waiting period applies for Accidental Death or for Children added within 3 months of their birth. The waiting period for each person covered starts from their cover start date and recommences for any part of cover that is increased on the date that the increase in cover commences.

This waiting period applies to all benefits under this policy.

Waiting periods already served with FSCA registered insurers will be waived for all Policy Owners subject to the Policy Owner providing proof of previous funeral cover as well as policy cancellation documents not older than 31 days from the cover start date. Policies cancelled by your previous insurer i.e. not initiated by you, will not be eligible for the waiver. This includes, but is not limited to, cancellation or lapse as a result of unpaid premiums.

The waiver will apply to the same main benefit amount that all the lives were covered for with the previous insurer.  Ancillary benefits will not be considered. Additional cover taken with Vodacom Life will be subject to normal waiting periods. To apply to for the waiver, the Policy Owner should submit the following documents to Vodacom Life:

  • Proof of previous cover with the following information:
    • full names and dates of birth (or ID numbers) of all insured lives
    • policy inception date 
    • cover amounts for each insured life as well as the applicable waiting periods.

  1. ESCALATIONS

Your premium and cover amount for all insured lives will escalate by 5% annually on your policy anniversary. You may opt out of these escalations; however, once you have opted out, you will not be able to opt in again. Escalations for yourself, your spouse and children will continue until you have turned 65 years old. Escalations will continue for extended family members until they have turned 74 years old.

If you have upgraded or downgraded your cover in the 3 months’ prior to your escalation date, the escalation will not be applied for that year.

You may qualify for a premium holiday in December of every year. To qualify, you must have paid all your premiums from January to November of each year. This premium holiday will be automatically applied, and you will not be billed for that December.

If you missed a premium from January to November, you will not receive your premium holiday for that year.  

  1. CESSIONS

This cover may not be ceded or transferred to a third party as security for a debt or for any other reason.

  1. CLAIMS

  • The deceased is covered on the policy.

The claimant must have the following information available when they contact us:

  • The Insured Life’s policy number and/or ID number.
  • The date and cause of the claim event.

We will advise what documents we need in order to process the claim. Generally, we require the following documentation:

All information provided is at the claimant’s own cost. We reserve the right to request any additional information or documentation required to validate the claim.

It’s important that we are informed about the event that leads to the claim within 180 days of it happening. The claim may be declined if we are not informed in time. We will usually pay out a valid claim within 48 hours of verifying all required claim documents as deemed necessary by the insurer.  Should you or your beneficiaries wish to dispute a claim decision, they have to do so within 180 days of receiving a formal communication about the outcome of the claim. You and your beneficiaries must submit the reasons for the dispute in writing for it to be re-assessed. If they would like to institute legal proceedings, it must be done within 180 days of receiving a formal communication of the claim outcome.

It is your responsibility to make sure that we always have up-to-date contact information for you and your beneficiaries. If we become aware that there are payouts due to be made under this policy agreement, we will always first try to contact your beneficiaries at the last contact details provided to us. If we are not able to make contact, we have to take reasonable steps to find the beneficiaries. In order to do this, we may have to appoint external tracing agents and this agreement permits us to give the tracing agents access to personal information. Please also note that a tracing and management fee may be deducted from the payout amount. We will pay interest, if applicable.

If any claim under this policy involves fraud, misrepresentation or false information, the policy agreement may be cancelled. In this case, no payouts will be made and no premiums will be refunded.
