Troubleshooting Online Policy Access
If you are attempting to lodge an urgent claim or view your policy but are experiencing digital banking issues, review these common pain points:
- Missing Secure Code (MFA): If you are updating sensitive policy details (such as changing your address) and do not receive the SMS verification code, ensure your phone has an active cellular connection. Wait two full minutes before clicking resend to avoid triggering a temporary security block.
- Locked Customer ID: Entering your password incorrectly three consecutive times will lock your digital access. Use the Forgot Password link on the login screen to safely authenticate your identity via SMS and reset your credentials.
- Browser Errors: If the insurance dashboard fails to load your policy PDF documents or loops back to the login screen, you likely have a corrupted cache. Clear your browser cookies, or attempt to log in using an Incognito or Private browsing window.
