How Insurance Price Check works

It’s smart to compare your insurance policy every 3 years as life insurance companies update their policy conditions annually. This directly impacts how much you pay. The following policy conditions often change...

  • Premium Rates In recent years, many insurers have significantly raised premiums, both for variable and age based stepped premium policies.
  • Loadings & Exclusions Definitions for medical conditions, pastimes, and occupations can vary widely between insurers, affecting what your policy covers.
  • Occupational Categories Different Life Insurance companies classify occupations differently, and these classifications are regularly updated, which can alter your premium.
  • Age of Life Insured It's widely known that different Life Insurance companies target different age brackets with more competitive premiums.

In summary, this means that the pricing and coverage of policies from different Life Insurance companies are constantly changing.

Yes you can use Insurance Price Check. Don't let an exclusion or loading stop you from getting your pricing checked. You might still retain your exclusion or loading but with our longstanding relationships with underwriters at major insurers, you could secure better pricing.

If I change policies will I receive loadings or medical exclusions?

If your health or pastimes have changed since you took out your existing policy you may receive loadings or exclusions on a new policy. If this is the case you may be better off retaining your existing cover

Do you always compare prices to an identical policy?

We match your existing policy including current cover, premium structures, contract type and other important features. New policies are rarely identical, policy wording, definitions, exclusions, ancillary benefits, claims rules and loadings may differ.

Do you charge fees for Insurance Price Check?

No, we do not charge fees. We rely on Life Insurance companies remunerating us via commissions for servicing clients.
