Customer Testimonials

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

OneAssure helped me understand my needs and choose a product that was right for me. There was no pressure tactics or mis-selling. This experience was respectful, informed, and completely stress-free.

Shreya Goyal

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

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.
