Hinterbliebenenkasse der Heilberufe HDH…: cancelling, benefits and complaints

Hinterbliebenenkasse der Heilberufe HDH Versicherungsverein a.G. in München has its head office in München, Germany. The German regulator BaFin lists the company as a funeral benefit fund under register number 3092. This page explains where your cancellation must go, how to make a claim and how often customers complained to the regulator.

How to cancel with Hinterbliebenenkasse der Heilberufe HDH Versicherungsverein a.G. in München

Send the cancellation to the address printed on your policy schedule (Versicherungsschein). If none is given there, the head office is the right address:

Hinterbliebenenkasse der Heilberufe HDH Versicherungsverein a.G. in München
Arcisstraße 50
80799 München
Germany

For contracts signed after 30 September 2016 a letter or an email is enough: German law no longer allows consumer contracts to demand more than text form (section 309 no. 13 of the Civil Code). Give your policy number, your name and the date the contract should end, and ask for written confirmation. A German letter is not required, but it avoids delays.

If the contract can be taken out on the insurer's website, the site must also offer a clearly visible cancellation button (section 312k of the Civil Code).

Notice periods by type of policy

Disability, term life, pension and funeral cover

to the end of the current payment period

These contracts can be cancelled at the end of any payment period, so monthly up to yearly depending on how you pay. That is exactly the risk: disability cover given up now is often unobtainable a few years later with a diagnosis on file, and a pension contract surrendered early pays back less than you put in.

Special right to cancel: Instead of cancelling: defer the premium, make the contract paid up or reduce the sum insured.

Making a claim with Hinterbliebenenkasse der Heilberufe HDH Versicherungsverein a.G. in München

  1. Notify the insurer with your policy number, in the event of a death without delay.
  2. After a death the insurer usually needs the death certificate and the policy document; the contract states who is the beneficiary.
  3. Ask which documents are still missing and keep a note of what you sent and when.

The phone number and address for claims are on your policy schedule. If they are missing, use the head office address above.
