Client: Male    Age: 43    Smoker Status: Non-smoker
Medical Condition: Heart Attack, tinnitus, asthma
Cover Date: 19th June 2019    Product Type: Level life insurance
Cover Amount: £300,000    Cover Term: 18 years    Premium: £127.06

We were approached by this gentleman on the 14th March 2019 when he completed an enquiry through our website. Our advisor Alex then called him back to discuss his pre-existing medical conditions and his life insurance needs. At this point he explained that he was looking for £300,000 of cover for an 8-year period, and that he was a non-smoker with asthma, tinnitus, high BMI and he has had a heart attack at the age of 38 that required surgery. Alex then took this information and applied to one of our specialist providers for him due to the age the client suffered his heart attack which meant fewer providers were able to consider offering cover. Despite this, Alex managed to secure him £300,000 of cover for 18 years for a monthly premium of £127.06. This is a fantastic premium considering the client’s medical history and the amount of life cover he required.

Overall, the gentleman was delighted that we have been able to secure him the life insurance that he deserved, and we were able to keep the premiums within his budget as well. We were so pleased that we were able to give the gentleman the peace of mind that he needed, especially as he could be considered to be a more challenging case given the age that he had his heart attack. We love finding cover for people who may have thought that getting protection was impossible, and we want to help as many people as we can to get the protection that they deserve.

Client: Male    Age: 44    Smoker Status: Non-smoker
Medical Condition: HIV    Cover Date: 20th August 2019
Product Type: Decreasing term insurance    Cover Amount: £432,000
Cover Term: 20 years    Premium: £37.49

We were approached by this gentleman on the 2nd of May 2019 when he completed an enquiry on our website for life insurance. Our advisor Mark S then contacted the gentleman to discuss his life insurance needs and his pre-existing medical conditions.

At this point he explained that he was looking for £432,000 of cover over a 20-year period to cover his mortgage. Due to the fact that he was looking to cover a mortgage, Mark S advised that he should have a decreasing policy as they are designed to cover mortgages, and tend to have cheaper premiums. He then went on to disclose that he has HIV diagnosed in 2012 with an undetectable viral load. Due to the fact that HIV can be a potentially high-risk medical condition, the insurers require a GP report for the gentleman, which usually takes between 4 and 12 weeks to complete. During this waiting period, the gentleman also had some medical appointments which also delayed his application. However, despite this Mark S managed to secure the gentleman £432,000 of decreasing life cover over a 20-year period to cover his mortgage for a monthly premium of £37.49. This is an amazing result as HIV can be a tricky condition to find cover for due to the potential risks associated with it, and up until fairly recently HIV cover was either very expensive or impossible to achieve, so with that in mind, this is a great result for the gentleman.

As a whole, both us and the gentleman were delighted with the result as he now has cover that he previously did not have, and his mortgage will be protected if the worst happens. Furthering this, we are delighted to have helped another customer to get the protection that they deserve, especially a customer with HIV.
