Hello,
This is to inform or advise or warn people who are planning to invest in Metlife India.
The surrender value that Metlife charges is 70% of the total premiums paid.
I got this confirmed from Metlife email support but the same is not mentioned while you take up the policy, the terms and conditions does not mention the number 70% as a loss if we surrender before maturity.
Below is the email that I received from Metlife:
Dear Mr. Suman
