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.

THE PLAN USUALLY WILL CEASE AT THE END OF THE TERM. IF PREMIUMS ARE NOT MAINTAINED, THEN COVER WILL LAPSE.

I’ve been a customer of Warwick Road financial services for about 3-4 years.
Quite simply a joy to deal with.

Matt Beard knows his stuff and organised various pensions, simplified them and i now know exactly what i have and what i need to do going forward.
Jethro Seaton is really the star of the show though (Sorry Matt!). A totally organised , conscientious and professional fella. Always gets the job done. Communication excellent , accurate and prompt. Top guy. Whatever you need , Jethro delivers.
Would , without doubt , recommend this company.
