How to cancel Chubb

Cancellation channels

• Post: Send a written cancellation request to Chubb Underwriting (DIFC) Limited, using the postal address provided below.
• Email: Send cancellation instructions to [email protected] including your policy number and personal details.
• Phone: A direct cancellation phone number is not publicly listed; check the Chubb website or request a call-back via email.

Step-by-step cancellation request

• Include your full name, policy number, effective cancellation date and a clear statement requesting cancellation.
• Attach ID and a copy of the policy document where possible to speed up verification.
• Sign the request (scanned signature for email is usually accepted) and ask for written confirmation of receipt and effective cancellation date.

Timing and follow-up

• Allow time for administration - request a confirmation timeline in your message and follow up if you do not receive acknowledgement.
• If you do not receive a response, escalate via the Central Bank consumer portal (details below) or via Chubb’s global contact page.

What happens when you cancel

Coverage and claims

Once cancellation becomes effective, insurance cover typically stops on the stated cancellation date and you cannot make new claims for periods after that date.

Claims already submitted before the effective cancellation date are usually processed according to the policy terms.

Renewals and payments

Automatic renewals will usually be stopped once a valid cancellation is processed; confirm the policy status in the confirmation from Chubb.

Any premium adjustments, refunds or outstanding charges depend on the policy terms and Chubb’s administration of the file.

Data and records

Chubb will retain records as required by law and its privacy policy; request confirmation of what personal data they retain and for how long.

Refer to Chubb’s official site for privacy details or ask for a data retention statement when you cancel.

Will I get a refund?

General policy

No UAE-specific public refund policy was found in the available sources. Refund entitlement depends on the policy wording and the jurisdiction governing the policy.

Known exception (other jurisdiction)

• For Chubb Travel Insurance under South Africa jurisdiction, a full refund is reported if cancelled within 14 days of issue provided you have not travelled and no claims were made.
• After 14 days in that example, no refund was indicated. This example may not apply to UAE policies.

How to request a refund

• Include bank details, policy number and proof that no claims were made when requesting a refund.

Positive reviews highlight quick processing in certain claims and helpful support staff.

Negative feedback

Other customers reported difficulty cancelling within a stated period, long phone waiting times and poor email responses.

Some customers felt cancellation was difficult or that communication was inadequate; escalate to the regulator if needed.

Takeaways

• If initial contact fails, use the Central Bank complaint route for unresolved issues.

Documentation checklist

Before you contact Chubb

• Policy number and copy of your policy document.
• Photographic ID (passport or Emirates ID) and contact details.

What to include in your cancellation message

• Clear cancellation statement, effective date, reason (optional) and preferred refund method.
• Signed declaration (scanned signature for email is acceptable) and any supporting documents.

Common mistakes

Not getting written confirmation

Relying on a phone call without written confirmation often leads to disputes about whether a policy was actually cancelled.

Always request and keep a written confirmation with an effective cancellation date.

Missing required details

Omitting policy number, incorrect account details for refunds or unsigned requests delays processing and may cause rejection.

Provide complete information up front to reduce follow-up requests and wait times.

Assuming universal refund rules

Assuming the 14-day cooling-off rule applies in the UAE for all Chubb products is risky; refund rules vary by policy and jurisdiction.

Confirm the applicable terms for your specific policy before relying on any refund expectation.
