Reviews and ratings

Good and timely response for claim settlement. Contrary to the agents who are behind the customer for policies and run away from responsibility when it came to any issue resolution, the response from the company was good. Didn't require to call back once for the claim.

I have been a customer of ICICI Lombard and very happy with the service provided and cashless hospitalisation with no worries and now I have included my son and wife also with ICICI Lombard. Will suggest everyone for the best service provided.

I am associated with you since 4 years. During this period I did not face any problem. My policies are getting renewed immediately, the claim is also done in a stipulated time. Overall the service is good and stress free.

I landed on your website while researching for medical insurance and was impressed by the benefits of your health insurance. I called the call center and they explained me all the details in a patient manner. It took me time to decide and once I was convinced that I need this product, I went ahead and bought it from your website. It will help if the website is a bit fast. Hope you will keep up the service.

I was looking for a health insurance policy for my parents and took a quote on icicilombard.com. The team followed up with me regularly and helped me out with all my questions. After a month or so I finally logged on to the site and took it in a few minutes. Keep up the good work.

I am happy with the services offered by ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company. I have medical policies from different companies for my family. Out of all these policies, we find ICICI Lombard the best because of its customer friendly approach, efficient customer service and simple and fast procedures.
