Why does my Insurance Ombudsman complaint number keep changing?

Viewed 0

My Insurance Ombudsman complaint has shown different reference numbers at different times, and the tracking portal status doesn't always look right. Is that normal?

Your complaint number changes three times

This confused me for months, so it may help someone.

From an appellate order of the Insurance Ombudsman, Delhi (Appeal No. INODL/A/E/26/00017):

  • ONL-... — when you first register online.
  • DEL-MISC-... — if your documents are incomplete.
  • DEL-H-... — once the complaint is registered and moves towards hearing and order.

Same complaint. Three different numbers at different stages.

One other thing from the same order:

  • The status shown on the tracking portal can simply be wrong. In one instance, the office said the displayed status was "wrong due to some technical reasons."
