The Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) has for the first time made some of its interactive services available to its subscribers via WhatsApp. The LIC policyholders must register their policies on the LIC online portal, www.licindia.in to use the listed services on WhatsApp. After that, policyholders can easily access a variety of services, including premium statements, ULIP plan statements, and more, using a WhatsApp chat box while relaxing at home.
The advantages of this service, however, are only available to customers who have registered their policies online; anyone who wants to take advantage of these benefits had to go to the LIC website and register their insurance policy there.
