Legal & General gives you accidental death benefit while they process your application so you have some form of cover in the meantime.

I only just got my life insurance with Legal & General 2 days ago. I applied online and answered questions and based on those I got a good deal. I was notified very quickly that I was approved. Very happy with the service so far!

Pleased to hear you've received excellent service so far, Laura.

Appalling

My critical illness cover claim was denied. I am a 38 year old with Breast Cancer. I was advised that because I had a previous benign lump checked 7 years ago I was ineligible to claim. They knew this information when I made my initial claim 4 months ago. I was also encouraged to pay fees for the next four months while they “made a decision”. It’s a surprise that a “professional” company would take advantage of someone with cancer to get another 4 months payments. Absolutely disgusting company.

Legal & General appreciate that life insurance isn't for their customers, it’s for their customer's loved ones that they leave behind which is why they have made their life insurance as simple and fuss-free as possible.

What does Legal & General life insurance cover?

  • You’ll be able to claim if you die or are diagnosed with a terminal illness (with a life expectancy of 12 less than 12 months) within the length of the policy.
  • You choose how much cover you need and how long you need it for.
  • Premiums are guaranteed and will not change unless you make changes to the policy.

  • You have the option to add Critical Illness Cover at no extra cost when you take out a life insurance policy.   
 
 

Things you should know about Legal & General life insurance 

  • Life insurance is not a savings or investment product and has no cash value, unless you make a valid claim.
  • If you stop paying premiums when due, your policy will be cancelled and you won’t get anything back from it.
  • You won’t be covered within the first year of the policy if you die as a result of suicide or intentional and serious self-injury.
  • You won’t be covered if your terminal illness does not meet Legal & General’s definition. If your life insurance is to cover your mortgage, your policy may not completely pay off your outstanding mortgage unless you make sure your amount of cover is adjusted to match any new mortgage arrangements.
