We accept Visa, Discover, and MasterCard.

Currently, only insureds who are already set up as credit card may pay on a recurring basis by credit card.

 Non-recurring credit card payments can be made on eService. A service fee of 3% applies. We can take a payment over the phone.  A supervisor cannot take a payment on a policy that is not in A01 status. If the member is attempting to reinstate the policy we must engage our billing team to help with the status of the policy before the supervisor can process the payment.

Reinstatement rules: 

The insured must have all back premium paid or post marked 90 days from the paid to date. 

For example: If today is 09/18/2020 and the paid to date on the policy is 06/01/2020. 

The all back premium must be post marked or applied by 08/31/2020. 

However, we must use facts logic and reason when we stick to this rule. 

For Example. If the insured has been paying via EFT every month and we have the same situation we have above, we to take into consideration a few variables. 

1. Was the premium being applied in arrears?

2. Was the arrears premium payments being applied due to a Selman upload of the policy?

3. Was there a rejection of premium due to a Selman error? 

There can be many more reason for us to reinstate the policy. Be sure you review it with Yolonda.
