Policy Bazaar — Premium Forfeited against Booking ID[protected]

I searched Term Insurance on Policy Bazaar and immediately got a call from an executive named Archana Pandey who explained all the plans available and on 9th December 2020 I purchased the Bajaj Life TermLife Insurance and paid Rs. 2, 470 vide Application Number [protected] / Booking ID[protected]. Further I shared the required documents and was told that there will be NO MEDICAL TEST required as your age is less than 40. Afterwards, I got the tele-medical call where I answered all the questions. Thereupon, I was told that there will be a medical test done for which I agreed. I gave my 1st blood sample on 18th December'2020 to their partner "Zoylo Digihealth Pvt. Ltd." for SST, SIC, CUE, EDTA. Next day I got a call from Zoylo Digihealth asking if I am feeling better as they have found some doubts in HIV report and they asked me for a re-test. I really got tensed and immediately got agreed for a re-test which was conducted on 20th December'2020. Now, again got a call saying that 3rd time also have to give sample for different tests CBC, ESR. Why 3rd time tests (CBC and ESR) were not done at the first place? Also, nobody from Policy Bazaar, Bajaj Insurance & Zoylo Digihealth informed the status of HIV report and I was very tensed. When I called Zoylo couple of times then they told me the report is fine. On 29th December I got a counter offer from Bajaj Insurance that premium amount has been increased to Rs. 4, 322 per month. I was not at all happy with 3 times blood sample taken and delay they made and finally asked them to cancel my policy and initiate a Refund. But surprised to get a response that as the medical test expenses are higher than the premium paid, it would not be possible to Refund the amount (Rs. 2, 470) paid by me. This is utter nonsense and not acceptable because at the time of booking policy NEITHER POLICY BAZAAR NOR BAJAJ INSURANCE told me or gave anything in written that in such scenario premium will be forfeited. Now, I have been chasing Policy Bazaar who said Insurance company has decided not to Refund and when I chase Bajaj they give me same lame excuse. I want to know when they found that in the first blood sample something is wrong then they should have not proceeded or should have told me that premium will not be refunded so that I could have taken the decision to cancel the policy without wasting their & my time. Please help me getting the hard earned money back
