I have been trying to contact this company over the past week to discuss my mom's premium and how to stop the payments. My mom is the owner of my brother's insurance policy; however, my mom was passed on August 18, 2018, at which time I took over paying the policy. When I reached out to the company to stop the payments, the company continuously sends monthly letters of "Notice of Automatic Premium Loan." I have tried to cancel the policy about 2 years ago with no success. At one time, I was able to reach someone, now my calls go directly to voicemail, which go unanswered.Business response

My son, ***** *** ******, passed away on 3/2/2023. I talked to several different people in customer service and finally received a check the last of May, 2023. It was one check for 2 $500 life policies. Check was $1000. I went to my bank and cashed the check to pay some bills from my son’s funeral. My bank has rejected the check stating it is FRAUDULENT!! They sent it back to me and charged me a $25 return fee. Then the bank took $1000 of MY OWN MONEY OUT OF MY ACCOUNT! Now I’m being told by Security that they sent me another check on 7/24/2023. And I’m supposed to think it won’t be a fraud or that there’s really a check on the way?! I have paid on these 2 policies for my son for decades! DECADES!! I want my money and I wanted and needed it months ago. If not Security will be hearing from my attorney. This is so pitiful. It’s thievery. Your company feeds on the people who trusted you and paid you. IF… and I use IF loosely… I don’t get a legitimate check for my two policies on my son or don’t get one at all, my attorney will be contacting your company and if necessary file a suit. Now get me a legitimate check for what I paid for.Business response

We received notice that you still had not received the original check, so we voided and reissued you a new check on 7/23/2023. You attempted to cash the original check that we voided. Once you get the replacement check you will be able to cash that one. Please feel free to reach out to our claims department at ************ with any questionsInitial Complaint

My husband, ****** ** *****, recently passed. In his paperwork I found a premium receipt book. It appears the premiums were paid from 2002 thru 2011.

After receiving the complaint filed by ******* ********, an email message was sent to him providing the office telephone number and email address as well as informing him that staff from the Houma office would contact him on that day - Thursday, September 8, 2022. The territory coordinator did speak with him that morning, took his payment and exchanged phone numbers for future payments. We also learned of the problem with the phone system which was immediately addressed to avoid any messages not being received and response made.
