How much are the premiums for this critical illness insurance?
The premium rates for Zurich ProLife 36 Super Basic will vary for different individuals. Certain factors will affect your rates, such as your occupation, medical condition, age, gender, lifestyle habits and the amount of cover you want.
Will my premium rates increase if I renew the policy?
Worried about increases in your premium rates? The amount that you’ll pay for your Zurich ProLife 36 Super Basic policy in the first year is guaranteed to remain as it is for the next 2 years. For renewals thereafter, they’ll be subject to the underwriting by Zurich.
Before increasing your premiums, Zurich will inform you in writing at least 90 days before the expiry date of your policy, so you'll then have more than ample time to contemplate renewing your policy.

Am I allowed to cancel my critical illness insurance policy?
Yes, you may. There is a cooling-off period which allows you to cancel it within 15 days from the date your policy is issued. All you have to do is just return the policy contract back to Zurich in person – you’ll get back the premiums you’ve paid minus medical costs and other expenses incurred by the insurer when processing your policy.
