Life Assurance

Body

This is cover that pays out on death. Some plans pay upon earlier confirmation of a terminal illness where the prognosis is death within 12 months. Proceeds can pay out as a lump sum or as annual amount for the remainder of the policy term.

Cover can last for a set term called Term Assurance, or can last throughout life, called Whole of Life.

The amount of cover can remain the same or increase/decrease annually. Level term assurance stays the same throughout. Decreasing cover is sometimes used to cover a reducing debt, such as a repayment mortgage and usually assumes a given interest rate. Provided your mortgage rates don’t exceed that rate, then the cover should reduce at around the same rate as the mortgage. The amount you pay is called the premium. It can either be guaranteed not to change, or it can be reviewable.

Reviewable cover normally changes based on the claims experience of the life assurance company.

Excellent support, guidance and help from the team. I knew nothing about how to buy a house but the team were so helpful and helped me feel at ease! I completed on my home far quicker than expected and it wouldn’t have been possible without the help of the team. Fantastic guidance as well on arranging home insurance and life insurance, an extra level of support I didn’t expect to receive.

Would definitely recommend this service as through our experience, they were just a call away to answer any questions we had and always put our best interests first. They kept us at ease as we were very nervous going through the house buying process but they always up to date and explained everything very well.
