Tan Beng Choo, Teacher, Melvin's Sister

I know him since his birth, we are so close that we share the same milk bottles (probably only to drink milo). When he first started in his profession, I was skeptical and not sure how long he will survive in this highly competitive and stressful job. Until now, he had become a successful agent and I am glad that he helped many families to set up a very important safety net for emergencies. He is so humble that he always seek self-improvement opportunities by reading books or attend the expensive workshop for his profession. This is a true reflection of a life-long learning model agent! Hence, I am confident in his recommendation and invested funds for my retirements. A caring person, he is very reliable and fast to respond when I need to ask any questions, especially during my very serious health problem that happened two years ago. His sincerity and professionalism made me so relaxed that I can focus on my 3-month long health recovery instead of the financial worries of the high medical bills (hospitalization and outpatient care). I am thankful to have this one and only, the best agent I can find, Melvin, my own younger brother ( everyone says he looks older than me)….. jia you ! Ah Thong !

Azizah

I first met Melvin at the Prudential roadshow at Toa Payoh Interchange. I was unsure about what I wanted and I was confused about the Medishield updates (I just turned 40 and I wanted to learn more about the options.) Melvin approached me and we started talking. I told him about my concerns. He immediately helped me and explained everything to me in detail which I understood. Previous agents always spoke to me in ways I don’t understand and when I ask my questions they don’t explain to me in a very satisfactory way. Melvin is always going all out to make sure I know what I can do. He is always a phone call away when I need help. Always reassuring me that things will be ok. I am never worried about my policies or investments as he will always keep me updated. I don’t have to worry about claims as Melvin will handle all for me. I will definitely be recommending Melvin to my friends and family.

Ng Chor Bee, Training Officer

This document is to commend the exemplary attitude of Melvin Tan. He has been a great help to my family and I would like to show my appreciation for his top notch service. He is able to gauge and evaluate what we need instantly and follow up with his wonderful service. For example, when my father passed in 2017, though I did not request Melvin to attend, he still attended the funeral/parting ceremony to offer his condolences which deeply touched me. He even kept the family company while we were grieving, trying to lift our mood. He did not once mention anything about the insurance which I greatly appreciated, showing that he can be professional and friendly at the same time. All in all, I greatly appreciate Melvin’s help all these years .I would like to express my gratitude to him and recommend him to everyone as he is one of the best agents I have ever met.

Dave & Lis, SPA-ESPIRIT GROUP, Director

We know Melvin now for 10 years. He always very helpful, kind and knowledgeable. We could rely on him to render help anytime that we need. There are many of my colleagues purchased insurance from him and all only have positive feedback about his services.
