Critical Illness Support
Help is at hand

Helping you manage the account
We can help you manage the account, if you, or someone you know is experiencing a critical illness. As circumstances change, you may wish to:
- transfer or close an account if no longer needed;
- change or downgrade the plan;
- update the payment details.
Before you can make any changes on an account you must be the account owner or have been given authority by the account owner. Check can I give permission to someone to access my account
If you’re not the account owner and already have authority, we’ll need to see:
- An Enduring Power of Attorney
- A primary ID with a photo that can verify your identity.
How to contact us
Please bring the relevant documents with you to prove your ID or authority.
Call us
If you prefer to speak to someone, call us and say “critical illness”.
