II was looking for Health insurance and policybazaar was very effective in showing me quotes from various insurance companies and got me a quote much cheaper than my renewal quote from my current insurance. I was willing to go ahead and taking the policy over their website. That is when the trouble started, I was just not able to change the start date of the policy. Later the folks at policybazaar called me up and told me that the policy will start at the start date of my choice, and not the one mentioned on the website. They asked me to pay up and then promised to give me something in writing with regard to start date.
When I asked them to confirm the same on email before I paid the amount and not later, they kept calling me to assure me over the phone that the policy will be issued only on the date not before, then they asked me if it was OK if it was issued later than the date which I wanted, but no confirmation over email which they promised.
I was increasingly getting scared to transact on this website, hence managed to get an agent of the health insurance company who gladly got my health insurance for the same price advertised on policybazaar.com.
