I got a call from the number +[protected] from a person Ravi who claims to be a manager from the claim department within minutes after this submitting the complaint. He asked for my debit/credit card number saying the claim amount will be settled within 1-2 minutes if I gave this detail. While I was surprised how they could refund the claim immediately without even going through the details, I said I am not comfortable to give the card details and suggested to refund into my registered account with the TPA or I could provide the IFSC code and account number. The call was disconnected abruptly.
