Avoid this company

Avoid this company!! I took out life insurance several years ago with my wife as a trustee. We have since divorced but L&G refuse to remove her despite a court order and me paying into it. Apparently the only way to remove her is by her removing herself!!?!! The company does not understand that circumstances change over a lifetime and do not respect court orders. I know it would be simple to cancel, but I am older now and taking a new policy would be much more expensive, so I tried to avoid this. If the company cannot respect your wishes and a court order whilst you are alive, how can you trust them with your estate when you are no longer around? Avoid this company!

Life cover easy

Lovely company to deal with, I have been using them for over two years now and am very happy with the service I have received so far. I set up everything online which took no time at all and I feel a lot more relaxed now that if the worst was to happen the people I care about will be taken care of. Reviewed on: 1st September 2019

Legal and General Review

I have been with Legal and General, originally taken out with Sainsbury's, many years and pay a monthly amount of £7.50 for Life insurance. This is basically fine but when I wanted my daughter included as an authority, it was a very difficult process, complicated and long-winded. I am still not 100% happy with this arrangement but not sure what to do next..... Reviewed on: 30th August 2019

Very good value life insurance. It's not much going out of the bank every month and it gives peace of mind if the worst should happen Reviewed on: 20th August 2019
