Q. How to use the COVID helpline?
A. COVID helpline can be accessed from the Support section of ride history on the Ola app. 

To call the helpline:

  1. Go to Ride History section (‘Your Rides’) section on the Ola App
  2. Select the ride on which COVID Care Package is applicable
  3. Click on the ‘Support’ section at the bottom
  4. Click on the ‘COVID Care Package’ section

  6. Helpline number will be displayed for your reference. Please mention the CRN number of your latest COVID Care Package eligible ride when asked to confirm by the helpline agent.

Q. Once opted-in, will the package cost be applicable on each ride?
A. Yes. The COVID Care Package cost is applicable on every ride with the 15-day tenure of the cover applicable on any eligible ride.  In case you want to opt out of COVID Care Package, it can be done from the ‘Ride Insurance’ tile in the ‘Profile’ section of the Ola app menu by disabling the toggle.

Q. Is there any option to cancel the COVID Care Package?
A. Once a ride has been completed, you cannot cancel the COVID Care package. Also, once opted in, a customer cannot cancel the existing COVID Care Package. No refund shall be payable to the customer once they have been charged for the package. This is due to the fact that the tenure of the COVID Care Package is very short (15 days from ride).

However, a customer can opt out anytime from the ‘Ride Insurance’ section in the ‘Profile’ section of the Ola app menu. COVID Care Package will not be charged for subsequent rides.

Q. How do I opt-out?
A. In case a customer wants to opt out of COVID Care Package, he can visit the ‘Profile’ section of the Ola app and deactivate the toggle corresponding to COVID Care Package under the ‘Ride Insurance’ subsection. This will stop COVID Care Package fees from being charged on subsequent rides.

Q. How to check my claim status?
A. In order to check the claim status, customers can directly reach out to TPA (contact details below) to check the status for the same.
