Premium increase at Hallesche: what now?

Exclusive tips from our experts on how to handle your premium adjustment.

01

Stay calm

A premium increase often seems drastic at first. But it is not an automatic reason to cancel. First check how large the adjustment really is and which benefits you get for your premium.

02

Read the notice carefully

The adjustment letter contains the key details: date, amount and reason for the increase. Above all, note the date of receipt, because important deadlines depend on it.

03

Plan change instead of a rash decision

Before you think about switching to another insurer, check whether a plan change under § 204 VVG within Hallesche makes sense. This is often the simpler way to a lower premium without setting up your cover completely from scratch.

04

Do not lose sight of your cover

A much lower premium often comes with reduced benefits. So check whether a cheaper plan still covers your most important benefits.

05

Have your options reviewed neutrally

With a premium adjustment, an outside view helps. We are familiar with the plans of Hallesche and find the way with you that fits your needs and keeps your reserves.

How to read the financial position

Hallesche shows an uneven picture compared with the industry. Low administrative costs speak for stable premiums. Points to note are a provision for premium refunds below the industry average and an increased complaints ratio. Hallesche belongs to the ALH Group, which gives it a clear place in the market.

Frequently asked questions

Do I keep my ageing reserves if I change plan within Hallesche?

Your ageing reserves are kept in full with an internal change under § 204 VVG. Only a switch to another insurer means that the calculated reserves are lost.

On what basis does Hallesche increase the premium?

An adjustment is only permitted under the conditions of § 203 VVG. It requires a lasting change in benefit expenditure or mortality rates and must be reviewed and approved by an independent trustee.

How quickly do I need to respond?

A fixed deadline applies above all to the special right of termination under § 205 (4) VVG, namely two months after receipt of the notice. You can approach the internal change under § 204 VVG with more flexibility in timing.
