And for this i need to swipe rs9990 only as taxes and i will get all the items in 10 days. If not satisfied don't pay the bill.

Hey, Family First Plus is a fraud company. I too got a call from delhi. He told me about all benefits, near by 4-5 about discount cards, holiday package and all. When I asked about authenticity he told me to refer website and payment gateway. It is correct if any company have payment gateway then it is authorised but there is a catch. You can not pay through payment gateway, you need to use IVR system only. No doubt they have tie up with ICICI but just for 2 lac yearly medical policy do you need to pay 9990. "NO". it will hardly cost to INR[protected]. then you will say 4000 Rs watch. You can get 5000 Rs Casio watch in 250 Rs in delhi Palika Bazaar. Then 5-30% discount card. It will only work on FamilyFirstPlus outlets. Then how you can get discount. Then the catch is Holiday trip. Just think, Do you really think in 9990 you can travel for 2 times with 4 members. A basic service apartment will charge you minimum INR 400 per head. So the total will be 400(per head)*4(members)*3(Days)*2(Trip) = INR 9600. Anyway In short it is fraud. So how to rid off these kind of fraud. Follow below basis rules.

1. Company have website
2. website should have https:// before URL and its mandatory to have if company have payment gateway.
3. You should pay through website not through IVR.
4. If company have payment gateway then while clicking on pay now, the page should redirect to https:// (Company URL First after merchant URL), page should not directly redirect to merchant URL like in case of Familyfirstplus.
5. Reviews before making payment
6. Do not share your credit card details NEVER
7. Do not pay in first call, do research
8. Do not believe on third party insurance companies. If you want to buy, buy directly through merchant not with third party
