              Fidelity Life Associate and efinancial are scams and falsifying information to clients. My policy is for 100k, 2 to 3 months later it changed to 25k. 25k is for health/natural causes and 75k is for accidental in which I did not sign up for. My policy was for 100k health/natural causes and if I wanted accidental it would be additional 25k in which I declined that offer. At this point I am requesting a refund.

              06/07/2024

              I am very ashamed to verbalize that I have just been scammed by Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company. I was a customer and policy holder for over 20 years, holding a life insurance policy that pays a return of premium, however these scammers are not honoring my policy due to rules they are completely making up and not directly stated on the policy itself. As such I will pursue legal consultation and take susbsequent action against this company.If my family were counting on receiving a death benefit payment at the time of my death, I am 100% positive that they would never see a single $1 of the death benefit. I strongly advise everyone with a life insurance policy with Fidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Company to cancel it immediately and move your money to a reputable company and you will save yourself considerable anguish down the road. You owe it to your loved ones as well as for your peace of mind to be 100% certain that your life insurance will provide the financial support to your family at some future date. Your policy with Fidelity & Guaranty Life is not worth the flimsy paper that it is printed on! Move your money immediately as this company is a scam.

              Thank you for your inquiry. Due to state and federal privacy laws we are unable to respond directly to the BBB. A written response will be sent to the policy owner.
