PrivacyPast data breach drew a SG$10,000 PDPC fine (2019); AIA now runs a vulnerability disclosure program and publishes security advisories.¹US arm (Prudential Financial) suffered a major Feb 2024 breach . 2.5M affected, $4.75M settlement; no breach evidence found for the Singapore entity in sources reviewed.
Support qualityCopilot/Dynamics service rollout cited; no public ratingsBBB complaints; long-term care denial litigation
Public sentimentPublic sentiment is mixed and thin: a regulator fine, agent-mis-selling warnings, and employee complaints outweigh scarce positive customer ratings.⁸Feedback is thin and mixed: an advisor review flags a hard start for new advisors, and US customer reviews include claim-denial complaints.
Biggest gotchaAgents may promise coverage that exclusions later deny; get all promises in writing before signing.10Guess: long-term policies lock you in; early surrender is typically costly
