A return premium happens when your policy is reduced or cancelled, and the insurer owes you money. Examples:
- Removing a driver or vehicle
- Downgrading your cover
- Cancelling partway through the policy term
With MPF:
- The return premium is used to reduce the remaining balance on your finance agreement.
- If the return premium is more than your remaining loan, you may get money back.
- If the return premium is less than the remaining loan, you may still owe a balance to the finance company.
