KUALA LUMPUR (Sept 20): U Mobile today inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with MPI Generali Insurans Bhd (MPI Generali) to provide general insurance solutions to U Mobile’s customer base, which will enable the telco's customers to subscribe, manage and view their general insurance coverage entirely via their mobile phones.

“U Mobile is all about innovating to provide the best experience to our customers. As part of our continued efforts to give unlimited peace of mind, we are soon able to give customers the options of purchasing and managing affordable general insurance solutions conveniently, as it can all be done via their mobile phones,” U Mobile chief executive officer Wong Heang Tuck said in a statement. 

The two companies had previously worked together in 2016, when the insurance company provided travel insurance solutions to the telco's long-term customers via its loyalty programme called 'U Special'. 

“We’re proud and excited to collaborate with U Mobile again to offer our general insurance solutions to U Mobile customers. The mobile app platform that enables simpler and faster access to purchasing our insurance solutions, adds to our multi-channel distribution network that reaches out to different segments of customers according to their purchase preferences, to protect what’s precious to them," MPI Generali chief executive officer Oliver Tan commented on the newly-signed memo. 

The MoU said MPI Generali’s general insurance solutions will be available to U Mobile customers from the second quarter of 2018.
