Summary

Research shows that country dwellers are less likely to have life insurance, however, it seems that this fairly short-sighted as wherever you live, if a parent dies and there is no life insurance the consequences could be desperate. Below are some examples of how much life cover can cost and what might effect the cost of a premium. (medical insurance)

Life Insurance Is Cheaper Than Ever

Lifesearch, an independent insurance broker, say in the last 10 years Life insurance has become cheaper to buy by 30 per cent; as cheap as it has ever been. And, if you already have a plan in place you may be able to lessen your premium by switching to another insurer.

However, if you have any health issues, such as being over-weight or you have a risky job, perhaps in the Armed Forces, you might not be eligible for a cheaper premium and have to pay more for your cover. A quote from More Than for 40 year-old male, for 25 years to the value of 100,000 pounds, at slightly over 11 pounds per month and this, and the cover, will remain the same throughout the term of the policy.

If a 40 year-old man were to have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of over 30, he would be classed as obese and his premium could be more than 50 per cent higher, according to Lifesearch.

Matt Morris from Lifesearch says, The old loading for obesity meant premiums jumped by up to 20 per cent. That is more like 50 per cent today and can in some cases be more. People are being loaded earlier and loaded higher. (life assurance)

He continued, No single insurer will be cheapest for everyone. Those who have a high BMI or complicated medical problems should shop around for the best cover.

Wesley Boden from Warrington, Cheshire, did just that having approached Lloyds TSB, his own bank, for a quote for a Decreasing Term insurance for 90,000 pounds. They quoted him 29 pounds per month which included a loading because of Wesley’s BMI being just higher than the approved level.

Wesley went to Lifesearch for some advice. They shopped around for him and came up with exactly the same cover for 17.57 pounds per month. He said, Lifesearch looked across the entire marketplace and found an insurer that didnt see me as an increased risk. I purchased cover at standard terms, which means I will be able to shave thousands of pounds off the cost of cover over the life of the policy.
