Contestable claim means that the death occurs in less than two (2) years
from the date of effectivity of the policy.
Incontestable means that AXA Philippines cannot revoke your contract
after two (2) years, provided that your policy is still in-force. Death by
suicide only becomes a valid claim during this period.
Proceeds will only be paid upon the death of the insured.*
If the owner dies, a new policy owner must be named. When a contingent owner is named in the application form, the latter will assume ownership. In the absence of a contingent owner, the insurance code states that the ownership of the policy will automatically be granted to the insured.
If the policy is issued with an attached Waiver of Premium rider or a Payor’s Clause, on the owner’s death, future premiums may be waived up to a period as stated in the policy contract.
*For life insurance policies only
IIE stands for Index-linked Increase Endorsement. This is your policy's automatic inflation protection feature which applies every policy anniversary. However, should you decline for 2 consecutive times, the IIE will no longer be offered the following year.
The IIE gives you the opportunity and convenience to increase your life insurance coverage for a minimal premium in relation to the increase in cost of living (inflation) without the need for medical examination.
The cost of increase is minimal and varies per year depending on the inflation rate.
By paying your new premium with IIE gives your policy an automatic increase in coverage.
Should you wish to decline the offer, please reach us two weeks before your actual due date through our Customer Care Hotline number at 02 5815 AXA(292), email us at customer.service@axa.com.ph or Chat with us through our website at https://www.axa.com.ph/contact-us or you may contact your distributor.
