Hi All,

Stumbled across this deal where if you sign up to Qantas Life Insurance and also add another service such as total disability cover you can get 30,000 points on sign up.

What I did was put the lowest possible cover for Life Insurance which was $100,000 and then the lowest possible for Total Permanent Disability Insurance and the total came to $16.87 per month.

The best thing about this is that the 30,000 QFF points are credited after 60 days, so essentially you are looking at 30K points for around the cost of $34.00.

T&Cs simply state:
1 Policyholders will earn 10,000 Qantas Points for purchasing one Qantas Assure Life Protect Insurance and 30,000 for purchasing two or more. Qantas Points will be credited after the policy has been held for 60 continuous days. Not available to existing Qantas Assure Life Protect policyholders.

When I change my policy cover the bonus points remains the same, so I only assume they will provide the points to you after 60 days, does not mention anything about a minimum specifc for coverage.

Good luck all and have a play around with the various types of minimum cover to see if you can get it cheaper.

      Points now appear in assure app!! Now to wait for it to be transfered to Qantas rewards before cancelling. What's the best contact number to cancel this?

      • FeZZa21 on 16/05/2017 - 10:57

        the "best" contact number would be the one that's on the Qantas Assure website ;)

        • starburstyellow on 16/05/2017 - 11:43

          @Jason Genova: I understand. But I was asking in case there was a difference between 1800 generic to an actual number that I can call direct to cancel. That's what I meant by "best number" . It wasn't like I asked "what's the number to cancel?". Guess am lucky I didn't get sent a lmgtfy link. :)

    I have looked into your account and your points are due to be transferred into your Qantas Frequent Flyer account on the 26th May, 2017.

    anyone have issues cancelling?

  • spuderump on 17/05/2017 - 09:05

    Just tried calling, for some reason it went through to a message service.

    I can foresee them trying to avoid any cancellations at any cost at this rate. Was advised it could take up to 5 business days and that I would receive a letter advising the policy had been cancelled. Not much piece of mind knowing that you do not get to verify the cancellation with speaking to someone.

  • cuy on 17/05/2017 - 09:15

    To Cancel Call Direct:
    (03) 9928 7284

    You will need the following:
    Policy number (7 Digits)
    Date of birth (8 Digits - ddmmyyyyy, 19 January 2000 -> 19012000)

    When you call, its automated. You will be asked for Policy Number followed by hash key, then date of birth followed by hash key, then a confirmation to proceed with cancellation (press 1 to confirm) then all done.

    Long story:
    I called up the wrong department and they tried to redirect me to life insurance cancellation department, but no one picked up so I got given this number instead. Hassle free cancellation.

    • muzzamo on 22/05/2017 - 15:38

      I had all sorts of trouble trying to cancel before I saw this. They were putting me through to an automated line but i strongly suspect the one they were putting me to was for a different product (e.g. health insurance).

      Once I rung this number direct I was able to cancel straight away. Brilliant!

      Just a heads up: I've used this method and although I was told the cancellation was successful, I still got charged this month. So make sure you're not still being charged!

      I called 13 49 60, chose Life Insurance and then Existing Member and was put to a person straight away who was happy to cancel the policy and refund the charge.

      Effective immediately. I asked about a pro-data refund but I wasn't given an explicit answer.

  • swimmingtoad on 17/05/2017 - 11:23

    My points are already in my Qantas account today. Only took a few days from the Assure app to the Qantas app.

    • maverick1 on 17/05/2017 - 11:27

      Ditto. Points were visible in the assure app on Monday and got credited to the QFF a/c today. seems they been doing some heavy lifting.

  • Ash-Say on 17/05/2017 - 11:47

    It's straight forward to cancel the policy. Select Option 4 upon dialing 134960 and then tell customer service representative that you want to cancel the policy. Afterwards the whole process is automated where you just need to enter your policy no. and DOB. You will get confirmation email shortly.

    Trust this helps other users :)

      you could've actually gotten 2x policies for each of your family members lol I only got 1 for myself and 1 for wife, could've gone 2x and nabbed 120K in QFF points! oh well, maybe in the next life then since they've changed the terms now :p

  • thydzik on 17/05/2017 - 16:50

    they must be getting heaps of cancellation requests,

    this morning I cancelled mine and had to press 4 and then 2, speak to one guy who confirmed my details, then he transferred me to another, and then finally to the automated system.

    knowing it was an automated cancellation system I decided to just cancel the wife's for her in the afternoon,
    this time it was press 4, speak to a lady who didn't ask for anything accept transfer me to the automated system.

    • FeZZa21 on 17/05/2017 - 17:44

      or maybe they set up the automated system just for us ozbargain VIP customers :p

      • unco on 17/05/2017 - 21:06

        Probably knew they would be fighting a losing battle if they tried convincing people not to cancel haha.
        The majority of people who signed up during this period, and be calling up to cancel would be points chasers only.

    • ckc on 18/05/2017 - 14:49

      Not sure if it is a new feature or not but you can cancel directly without human interaction, see comment below.

    Points in my FF account, policy cancelled.

    $30 for 30k points, has to be one of the best deals I have come across on the site.

    Awesome!

  • mparf on 18/05/2017 - 06:56

    Phew, I came here to see if others got theirs too! I've been considering keeping my policy but decreasing it to the bare minimum to continue earning on the Q assured app. I can earn an extra 360 points for about $5 a month, if I recall correctly. Anyone else have the same train of thought?

    • mparf on 18/05/2017 - 06:57

      But then I also want to cancel in case this is offered again in the future and I get myself another odd 30k points

      • spuderump on 18/05/2017 - 12:19
        +1

        I can't ever see them offering this ever again TBH.

        Their new deal sees points awarded monthly with a minimum policy amount of $40 per month.

        • mparf on 18/05/2017 - 16:19

          i just took a look at their most recent deal- thanks for the heads up!!
          I'm gonna cull my policy down the bare minimum to keep earning my points.

  • Turd on 18/05/2017 - 12:52

    I got my 30k points!!

  • ckc on 18/05/2017 - 14:44

    I also got my 30k points.

    And the easiest cancellation process I've come across: dial the Customer Care number (134960), select Life Insurance (2), select Cancel Your Policy (6), enter policy number + birthday as prompted, select Confirm Cancellation (1). Await email. No human interaction. I'd love to see that with the big bank credit cards where they often make a point of needing to "consult a customer service specialist" before cancelling.

    Update: duplicate of better formatted response :-)

  • tajid on 18/05/2017 - 15:06

    Does the cancellation happen instantly? Therefore for those that use the Qantas Assure App, it makes sense to cancel on the last week of the 3rd month?

      Yes.

      • happydragon on 23/05/2017 - 11:33

        I have tried to cancel the policy via the automated system last week. But still my Qantas Assure account shows the policy "in force". I have called them to cancel my policy but they just got my details and promised a call back which never happened. I even emailed them but received no reply. It seems it is only me as others see policy lapsed in their account dashboard.

        • sunaus on 23/05/2017 - 12:20

          same here.

          cancelled twice via the automated system last week, and still showing "in force".
