Purchasing Tips
Here are a few tips to keep in mind when purchasing a life insurance policy:
Take your time. On the other hand, don’t put off an important decision that would protect your family. Make sure you fully understand any policy you are considering and that you are comfortable with the company and product.
After you have purchased an insurance policy, keep in mind that you may have a “free-look” period usually 20 days after you receive the policy during which you can change your mind. During that period, read your policy carefully. If you decide not to keep the policy, the company will cancel the policy and give you an appropriate refund. Review the copy of your application contained in your policy. Promptly notify the agent or the company of any errors or missing information.
Review your policy periodically or when your situation changes to be sure your coverage is adequate.
