Quick Life Insurance

The internet can be a great resource for information but with so many outdated sites, it can be difficult to get a fast life insurance quote that you can rely on.

We’ve helped lots of people who have previously used comparison sites for a quick life cover quote. All too often they end up feeling confused when the insurance company quotes them a higher price on application.

In this short guide we’ll be giving you all the information you need to help you get a quick life insurance quote that takes your circumstances into consideration.

Is it better to get a quick life cover quote through an insurance advisor?

Quick life insurance quotes are easily accessible online but the reason that online calculators are so quick, is because they neglect to ask the customer vital details that could affect the price of their life insurance.

You might not be aware that the cost of your life insurance premiums are heavily impacted by the likelihood that you’ll make a claim. To calculate this probability, insurers ask multiple questions about your lifestyle, age, medical history, health and habits.

For example, a smoker who has previously suffered a stroke will likely be charged more by an insurer because the likelihood that they might pass away earlier than a non-smoker who hasn’t had a stroke could be higher.

For an insurance company, this is a risk, so ensure they’re managing their risk appropriately, they would charge higher premiums.

Quick quotes online don’t always reflect the customer’s circumstances which is why they can be so vague. A lot of people opt for this option because of a lack of time, which is understandable but it can leave them feeling shocked at the price of their life insurance upon speaking directly to a provider.

There are many other reasons it’s advisable to speak with an advisor including (but not limited to) …

• Some insurers are more lenient than others regarding yours and your family’s medical history, they’ll therefore know who’ll offer the best terms. Cheapest is almost always not the best.
• If you’re looking to add other insurance products such as critical illness cover or income protection, some providers offer a discount for multiple policies whereas others do not.
• A lot of – but not all – insurers offer additional benefits such as GP, physio and mental health services in their products at no extra cost.

The advisors we work with have in depth knowledge of the providers from the whole of market and know the best insurers to recommend depending on your needs, preferences and individual circumstances.

How quickly can you get life insurance?

It varies between applicant and provider but they’re usually very quick to arrange, normally less than a week. If you are in good health you may even be able to get an instant decision!

The exception to this rule is if the insurer wants to write to your GP as these often take several weeks for GPs to process. If you’re applying for a mortgage, it’s recommended you arrange the insurance early in the process, just in case.
