Customer Testimonials

Real experiences from our valued customers who have chosen our insurance coverage.

Have been associated with Ruchir and his team… They have provided me excellent guidance in choosing the right plans for myself and my family…

…always been available to assist with any insurance/claim queries.

Nakul N

I want to sincerely thank Sunad for being there for me throughout the entire claim process. He helped me through so many ups and downs, always patient and ready to support when things got tough. I honestly don’t know how I would have managed without his guidance and encouragement. Sunad made a difficult situation feel a lot less stressful, and I’m truly grateful for his kindness and steadfast help.

Prashant Pandey

Had a great experience with them during a difficult time. After my mother’s accident, we had to pay the hospital bill upfront, as cashless wasn’t available. They guided us through the reimbursement process, helped file the claim, and consistently followed up with the insurer until it was settled. Their support with the post-hospitalization claim was equally prompt and thorough.

Jatin Gala

My heartfelt thanks to the OneAssure team for making my insurance claim process effortless. Right from the very first interaction, they demonstrated professionalism, clear communication, and an impressive command of the procedures involved. Their swift updates, timely guidance, and persistent follow-through removed all the stress from what could have been a complicated experience.

Anju Renjith

Sanjay Dakalia

The team is very professional and prompt. I would have all my health and life insurance needs met through them.

Harish Jindal

Very professional service from Ruchir & Aman. They were recommended by a friend who had a positive experience with them. I have taken both health and life policies through them and they have advised me well throughout the process and found the best options available in the market. I had a medical condition due to which it was difficult to find a suitable health policy in the market, however this team was able to find one for me. I would recommend their services to anyone looking to buy health or life insurance.

Siddhartha Saha
