How can you claim?

If an ATM card holder dies in an accident, the nominee of the cardholder has to go to the branch of the bank where the account was opened. There, an application has to be submitted for compensation. Necessary documents have to be submitted to the bank. After a few days, the nominee gets the insurance claim, but keep in mind that only if the card holder dies or has an accident within 45 days of using the ATM card, the dependents of the concerned person can claim compensation under the insurance policy.
