cancellation Singlife: Step-by-Step Guide
What is Singlife
Overview
Singlife is a digital insurance platform that offers life, health and travel products alongside savings-style accounts and policy management via an app.
The company issues a range of policies including Direct Purchase Insurance (DPI), the Singlife Account (insurance savings plan), travel insurance, and Health Plus/Shield plans.
Applicability in UAE
Singlife does not publish UAE-specific pricing publicly for 2024/2025; customers in the UAE should verify product availability and terms before purchase.
If you purchased a Singlife product while in the UAE, local rights and the policy terms govern cancellation and refunds - this guide summarises key points and steps.
How to cancel Singlife
Accepted cancellation methods
- Email: send a written cancellation instruction from your registered email address including your policy number and identity document (NRIC/passport).
- Phone: call Singlife customer support to notify them of cancellation and follow up in writing where requested.
- Post: if required, send a signed cancellation letter to the Singapore office address. Use recorded post and keep proof of mailing.
Step-by-step cancellation process
- Locate your policy number and prepare proof of identity and the original policy documents if available.
- Send a clear written instruction stating you wish to cancel, the reason (optional), and the preferred refund method.
- Retain copies of all correspondence and transaction references. Follow up if you do not receive acknowledgement within 7 - 10 working days.
What happens when you cancel
Access and coverage
Coverage ends on the cancellation date specified or the date Singlife processes the cancellation according to the policy terms.
If a claim occurs before processing, entitlement to refund or cancellation may be affected per the policy conditions.
Data, renewals and records
Singlife will retain policy records as required by law and may update your account status in the app or customer portal after cancellation.
Automatic renewals stop once a cancellation is processed; check your policy schedule and confirmation for exact dates.
Will I get a refund?
Standard free-look refunds
Most Singlife products include a 14-day 'free-look' right from receipt of the policy for full cancellation refund, subject to issuance expenses.
Receipt timing: if posted, policy is treated as received 7 days after posting; if sent electronically, 7 days after sending or earlier if downloaded.
Product-specific refund rules and exceptions
- Singlife Account: 14-day free-look - refund of premiums paid without interest, minus any withdrawals or application expenses.
- Travel (single-trip): refundable before the start date less a S$25 administrative fee if no claim or travel occurred.
- Travel (annual multi-trip): full refund within the 14-day free-look; after that, typically 80% refund of premium paid less pro‑rated charge for coverage period; no refund if a claim/incident occurred.
- Health Plus/Shield: after free-look, cancel at renewal with at least 30 days' written notice. Annual plans yield pro‑rata refunds for unused days unless a claim was made during the policy year.

Your consumer rights in United Arab Emirates
General expectations
As a policyholder in the UAE you have the right to clear information on policy terms, cancellation rules and refund handling as stated in your policy contract.
Check the policy wording for product-specific free-look, notice periods and refund calculations that apply to your purchase.
Practical steps if you have a dispute
- Keep all documents, emails and proof of payment to support your case.
- Escalate to Singlife's customer service first; request written reasons for any denial or delay.
- If unresolved, you can lodge a complaint with the relevant UAE insurance/consumer channels listed in your policy or local regulator guidance.
Customer experiences
Positive reports
Some customers report fast, helpful service via chat or email and straightforward resolutions for simple queries.
Quick service experiences are noted where documentation is complete and channels were used as advised.
Common negatives reported
- Delays in receiving original policy documents or refunds are reported by some customers.
- Complaints include slow customer service responses and occasional long wait times for claim handling.
Documentation checklist
Essential documents to prepare
- Policy number and copies of the policy schedule or certificate.
- Identity document (NRIC/passport) and proof of UAE residency if requested.
- Payment receipt or bank transaction proof used to purchase the policy.
Optional supporting documents
- Evidence of why you are cancelling (medical notes, travel cancellation proof) if relevant to claims or refunds.

Common mistakes

Example: notifying only by phone without sending written confirmation can delay processing.
