From August 2020, the reference number for your Metropolitan funeral policy debit order will change to METROPOLIT (plus one of your funeral policy numbers). This used to be AMETLIFE (plus a bank reference).
Your reference number for your funeral policies may differ if you have more than one but the amount deducted will remain the same.
We have moved your funeral policy/policies/some of your policies to our new administration platform.
You will be able to see your funeral policy premium deduction (with METROPOLIT and the policy number as your new reference) on your bank statement and this will allow you to better keep track of your premium payments for each policy you have.
Your endowment/retirement policies have not been moved and these policies will continue to have the reference of AMETLIFE (plus a bank reference number).
The change in reference number for your funeral policy has no effect on the terms and conditions of your policy.
We constantly look to improve our administration platforms to provide a better client experience. The change in reference number is as a result of your funeral policy/policies being moved to a new administration platform.
The reference for your funeral plan will change to METROPOLIT to reflect that the debit order is for Metropolitan and the policy number for which the deduction was made.
If you have multiple policies (funeral and endowments) you will see both METROPOLIT and AMETLIFE deductions on your account.
Both of these are still correct and will ensure that your premiums received are accurately reflected on your policies.
The change in reference number has no effect on the terms and conditions of your policy.
