Frequently Asked Questions

Am I too old for life insurance?

No — guaranteed acceptance policies are specifically designed to accept applicants well into their 60s, 70s and 80s.

How is this different from Over 50s cover?

The products work the same way, but Over 60s cover is priced and positioned for slightly older applicants, often with a higher starting premium.

Is there a maximum cover amount?

Yes, guaranteed acceptance policies typically cap cover at a lower amount than fully underwritten policies, since no medical is required.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, you can cancel your policy at any time, though premiums already paid are not usually refunded outside of the waiting period rules.
