Irrespective of whether it is a big, complicated or small, simple claims, the turnaround time should only starts taking effet at the time of complete submission of the relevant documents by the insured person to the insurance company.
For simpler cases, the claim processor should be able to assess the claim within 7 working days. On the 8th day, the offer letter to the insured should have been send to insured.
For complicated cases, subject to the above and submission of final report from the Adjsuster/investigator, the turnaround time should be in the region of 3-4weeks.
However, having mentioned above, the real issues on the delay in getting your claim paid is actually lies on the delay in the submission of full documentations which naturally hampered investigation process.
However, once the Discharge Voucher has been received from the Insured, it should not take more that 3 days to issue the cheque for smaller claims or 5 days for bigger amount claims.

It’s happened to me. About a year ago, someone got a hold of my bank card numbers. Fortunately, the crook made some international purchase which immediately clued me in and my bank was quick to settle the whole thing. But most people aren’t so lucky. Identity theft is a serious crime that’s growing each year. Victims of identity theft can spend months, or even years, trying to repair a ruined credit history, which can compromise your chances of getting a new job, a bank loan, insurance or even rental housing. Follow these steps to help keep your identity safe:
Protect Your Credit Card Number When Making Purchases
Check your receipts after making a purchase with your credit or debit card. In most cases, the printed receipt hides all but the last 4 digits of your credit card account number, but some terminals still print receipts that show all 16 digits of your account number and the expiration date. If you get one of these receipts, black out the numbers entirely before throwing it away – this is all the information a thief needs to make charges using your card. You’re also permitted by law to hide the first 12 digits of your account number on any copies of the receipt that the seller keeps.
It’s especially important to keep tabs on your receipts at restaurants. Think about it – you pay for your meal and then leave the signed receipt on your table for the waiter to pick up. But in a busy restaurant, it’s easy for a potential thief to “accidentally” bump your receipt off the table (or just steal it) and get your information. If the restaurant’s receipt shows all of your account information, black out the first 12 digits of your credit card number before leaving the restaurant.
Do You Really Need To Give Your Social Security Number?
Be very stringent about who you give your social security number to. You’ll probably need to share your number when you apply for credit or for a bank account, but sometimes a store or an organization will want to use it as an ID number, simply to identify you within their system. This is not only dangerous – it’s illegal. The law says that social security numbers aren’t to be used as ID numbers. If you’re ever unsure about giving out your social security number, ask if there’s an alternative – there is in most cases.
Destroy Documents That Contain Sensitive Personal Information
Buy a paper shredder and use it to destroy any documents that contain credit card numbers, social security numbers, phone numbers, your date of birth and any other personal information before throwing them away. Any credit card offers should also be shredded – thieves can fill out the applications and open a line of credit without you ever knowing. Don’t think that throwing out these documents is enough – identity thieves aren’t above going through the trash to find information that can help them get credit in your name.
If The Worst Happens
If you do become a victim of identity theft, take the following steps immediately:
* Contact your credit card companies to let them know what’s going on, close your accounts and ask to have new cards issued to you.
* Place a fraud alert on your file with any one of the three major credit bureaus. The other two will be notified automatically.
* File a police report. You may need it to show to creditors as proof of the crime.
* File a complaint with the FTC, which maintains a database of identity theft cases used by law enforcement agencies for their investigations.
It’s not fun to think about identity theft, but in this age of technology, you can’t afford not to. Identity thieves get smarter every day – just think of the recent rash of companies announcing that their client databases have been hacked into, exposing personal information. Some things are out of your control, but there are some simple precautions you can take to keep your personal information secured. Keeping your identity safe may be one of the most important things you do for your financial future.

1. Begin to operate on an “I have to know everything” approach when you give out your personal information. Only give out your personal information to people you know and trust.
2. Protect your Social Security Number, credit card and other financial information. Do not give this information out over the phone unless you initiated the call or as we stated above are talking to a trusted individual from a trusted company.
3. Cancel all of your unused accounts including banking, credit card, licenses and permits.
4. At least once a year, if not more often, update and check your credit report and Social Security Earnings and Benefits Statement to make sure everything appears as it should.
5. Protect your mail. Make sure you have a secure locked mailbox to receive all of your mail. Always mail your payments and checks from a secure Post Office Box or from the Post Office. And, if you have a Post Office Box at the Post Office never discard your mail in a garbage can. Always bring your entire mail home.
6. Always crosscut shred all bank statements, credit card applications or information and important documents before discarding to recycle or the garbage. It is best to stir up the shredded documents to make it even harder for identity thieves to steal your information.
7. Purchase identity theft insurance. This will cover any losses incurred while recovering your lost identity once a crook has stolen it.
8. Invest in professional grade protection for your computer. The best protection available today comes from Managed Internet Security Service providers. The best security services include best-of-breed corporate grade security software for your computer, as well as unlimited service and support from trained security pros. Make sure it is the same kind of service that is used by major corporations around the world. Frankly, the over-the-counter and free security software programs available don’t keep up with today’s professional cyber thief. If those popular programs worked, why do we see the cyber-crime problem growing at a progressively faster pace?
A managed professional Internet security program should have the following technologies installed: A bi-directional or dual Firewall that prevents information from coming in or going out of your computer without your permission, anti-virus protection that is updated daily, and malware protection that is updated daily. Malware consists of spyware, adware, Trojan horses, keyloggers and more. It constantly changes so you will need a technology that keeps up with the professional hackers who want your identity. Your best bet is to find a professional security service that affordably manages all this for you.
9. Beware of e-mail scams like Phishing and Pharming. Phishing is an e-mail that looks like it came from a bank or business claiming you need to take care of a problem or your account will be closed down. It takes you to a page to fill out your personal information. Meanwhile, Pharming is redirecting your computer from a legitimate to a fake web site. For example, you may think that you are going to your banking site, but instead are redirected to a site that looks like your banks web site, but is hosted by an identity thief.

When searching for a good website hosting service for your website, you’ll need to consider a few things. Besides pricing and reputation you’ll want to look for a host that offers enough space for your needs, allows enough bandwidth for your site traffic, has relevant and good domain names available, and offers a good user interface for working on and maintaining your site.
Domain Names:
Probably the most critical decision when trying to establish a website is picking out a domain name (the web address) of your site. Many host sites offer sub-parr domain names that often have additional parts added to the web address which may cost less but also make your domain name less clean and less likely to be easily found by potential visitors. You’ll want a straight forward domain name that you can fit to your needs and while this may cost more initially it will be worth the investment. You’ll also want to get domain names that end in .com whenever possible as this is the most relevant and recognized ending of a site address.
Bandwidth:
If you expect to bring a lot of traffic to your site or you have a content rich site, you’ll want to make sure that your host allows enough bandwidth to both host and handle the content and traffic on your site. What good is a website that users can’t access due to the site exceeding it’s monthly bandwidth limit. Most hosts either have tiered pricing packages for more bandwidth to grow as your site grows, get the amount that fits your needs and adjust accordingly. Look for hosts that don’t have bandwidth ceilings so that you can future proof your site as traffic grows and demand grows.
Storage:
A lot of site hosting services boast free websites and free domain names for everyone. Not only do these freebie sites often come laden with ads that you make nothing off of, but they often come with measly storage for all the content and files you may want to host on your site. If you are starting a mostly text based site you may be able to get away with these free hosted sites, but if you intend on having any downloadable content, expect a lot of traffic, or have any multimedia on your site then you need to look for hosts that offer packages with varying amounts of storage space.
User Interface:
A site of your own is great, but if you can’t edit it easily and quickly then it can affect the overall look and experience of your site. Some hosting sites allow multiple ways to access your webmaster tools, but some may restrict you to using pre-made editors or may only allow HTML editing. If you are new to web site design, HTML heavy editing won’t appeal to you and if you are good with HTML, pre-made editing will drive you nuts.
Freedom:
As a final area to consider be sure to read the terms of service for web hosting services before signing up or posting your site. Many hosts do not allow adult content on their servers and some may even restrict or block certain kinds of sites based on the host’s wishes. Since the hosts own the servers and provide the bandwidth and storage, they often have a lot of rights when it comes to what they allow on their sites. You need to make sure your content and site will be accepted by a host and not shut down.
And there you have some things to consider when looking for someone to host your website. Getting a host for your site can be great because you won’t have to worry about the issues that come with hosting your own site such as bandwidth and storage and often you’ll get access to customer support and user tools to help make the most of your website.

If you are anxious to get your investments started, you can get started right away without having a lot of knowledge about the stock market. Start by being a conservative investor with a low risk tolerance. This will give you a way to making your money grow while you learn more about investing.
Start with an interest bearing savings account. You may already have one. If you don’t, you should. A savings account can be opened at the same bank that you do your checking at – or at any other bank. A savings account should pay 2 – 4% on the money that you have in the account.
It’s not a lot of money – unless you have a million dollars in that account – but it is a start, and it is money making money.
Next, invest in money market funds. This can often be done through your bank. These funds have higher interest payouts than typical savings accounts, but they work much the same way. These are short term investments, so your money won’t be tied up for a long period of time – but again, it is money making money.
Certificates of Deposit are also sound investments with no risk. The interest rates on CD’s are typically higher than those of savings accounts or Money Market Funds.
You can select the duration of your investment, and interest is paid regularly until the CD reaches maturity. CD’s can be purchased at your bank, and your bank will insure them against loss. When the CD reaches maturity, you receive your original investment, plus the interest that the CD has earned.
If you are just starting out, one or all of these three types of investments is the best starting point. Again, this will allow your money to start making money for you while you learn more about investing in other places.

Here is some basic tips on how to start an internet home business.
== 1.Write Your Business Goals ==
It is important to set goals and objectives and then take action to accomplish them. This will be your Business Plan.
Here Are Some questions you should ask yourself:
- Why do I want to start up an Internet Home Business?
- What product or service can I provide?
- Do I have the knowledge and expertise to provide this service?
- Do I know enough about the competition?
- Where will my customers come from?
Take the time to write down your questions and answers and thoroughly research your chosen market.
== 2. Choose A Product or Service To Sell ==
On the internet you can find hundreds of product or services to sell. You can sell your own product by creating your own, or purchasing resale rights or being an affiliate with a good internet company.
== 3. Business Domain Name ==
One important first step is to choose the best domain name you can. Keep it as short and simple as possible.
== 4. Your Business Web Site ==
Having A good business website is essential to succeed with an internet home business. Here is the thing you have to plan to build your website
A) Decide on the website design
b) The content.
== 5. Choose a Web Hosting Company ==
What are some of the things you should look for when choosing a web host? The criteria for choosing a free web host and a commercial web hosting solution are slightly different although they do overlap.
A) Web Space
Does it have enough space for your needs?
B) Bandwidth allotment
It is difficult to recommend a specific minimum amount of bandwidth, since it depends on how you design your site, your target audience, and the number of visitors you’re able to attract to your site. In general, 100MB traffic per month is too little for anything other than your personal home page and 1-3GB traffic per month is usually adequate for a simple site just starting out. Your mileage, however, will vary.
C) Reliability and speed of access
This is extremely important. A site that is frequently down will lose a lot of visitors.
== 6. Shopping Cart ==
No e-commerce website is complete without a secure shopping cart.
In fact, your customers may not realize that they have left your website to place an order. The remote shopping cart provider will give you the HTML to add to your website. When your potential customer clicks on the Buy Now button, he or she is taken to the remote shopping cart to enter the personal information and payment details.
== 7. How To Promote Your Business Website ==
Write An Article: Write an article promoting your site or product. Write an article on a hot topic many people would like more information on and submit it to various e-zines. How do you find out what’s hot? Visit a few of the message boards and see what questions are raised often.
Search Engines: Thousands of search engines exist on the Internet. But, you should only be concerned with the top eight or ten. You should manually submit to the top eight: Alta Vista, Excite, Yahoo, Hotbot, Lycos, Northern Light, Infoseek, Webcrawler, and use one of the FREE automatic submission services like *SubmitPlus* to handle the smaller search engines.
Directories: List your site here too. Directories organize sites into categories. Good examples of Directories: Yahoo, Magellan.
Free Classifieds: You will have to submit to a ton of FREE classifieds to get any significant traffic.
Tell Friends And Family: If your friends, family, acquaintances, have an Internet Connection, e-mail them telling them about your new website, and ask them to visit often.
Leave Business Cards or Flyers: Leave these promo pieces with small businesses in your community. All relevant contact information; email address, URL, telephone number, should be included. Offer a freebie to anyone who visits your site. A free e-book, report.
== 8. TRACK YOUR MARKETING ==
Here are some questions to consider:
1) How many unique visitors come to your website?
2) How many visitors opt-in to your mailing list or order your products?
3) When you send emails, how many are opened and how many people actually click through to your website?
The reason these question are so important is because if you don’t know these stats, you won’t know what to improve. It could be different things; like your headlines, the content or navigation on your website. You won’t know until you start checking all your marketing offer.
== 9. YOUR BUSINESS IN CONCLUSION ==
Think of your first six months primarily as a training period. Don’t expect large earnings until after you’ve educated yourself.
Don’t be a negative thinker and don’t let the negative attitudes of others (even if they’re family members, friends, or peers) influence you.
All the great men and women in history had to overcome the naysayers who said it couldn’t be done and then went out and did it. Think for yourself!
As long as you think positive and focused on your internet home business target you re on the right way to a rich life, which is directed by you and it will lead you to tremendous success and personnal satisfaction.

Like normal casino, in the casino online we could play a lot of game like playing in the real casino. Black jack, Poker, and another entertainment game which normal casino have it and we could play but there are a different because we look the list using online casino scroll.
About the payment, most of Casino online using Creditcard for their payment method. Because credit card is payment method which also borderless same as online business network. Some of casino also has language menu which we could choose it based on our language.
