Have you been declined a claim for life insurance, critical illness or income protection?

Beat the Banks are here to help!

Every year millions of perfectly valid claims are unfairly declined.

If you have been declined or had a decision “deferred” for a claim under a life policy, critical illness policy or an income protection policy it’s difficult to know where to turn.

Rejections tend to come at a low point in life. Policy premiums have been paid faithfully in the belief that these invaluable benefits will be paid in the unlikely event you ever need to claim.

That’s where Beat the Banks can help, even if your claim was rejected up to 10 years ago.

To find out more about how Beat the Banks can help you can start your free initial assessment, call 01382 200474, or if you live close to our office in Dundee why not pop in with your paperwork. 

Beat the Banks will complete a free initial assessment with you to discuss your case. This will likely be via telephone or, where you have copies of your finance documentation, we may review this for you.

We will let you know if we believe that you may have a claim and if so, we will refer you to our partner law firm, New South Law, who are a specialist in these types of cases. New South Law will send you their own Terms and Conditions to make a claim.

Beat the Banks will receive a commission from New South Law for referring your case to them.

Did you know:

  • The ABI who are the trade body say they pay out on 97.6% of all claims, BUT Over 50’s plans (which are guaranteed whole of life cover) make up something like 60% of all personal insurance claims.
  • Not included in the numbers are claims rejected by the insurers telephone team, or where the decision is deferred, or claims rejected for material non-disclosures.

Here are some sobering FACTS:

  • FACT - Every single day 5 life insurance claims are rejected - £77 million each year.
  • FACT - 1 in 5 critical illness claims are rejected - £107 million each year.
  • FACT - Up to 20% of all income protection claims are rejected, with excessive proof often demanded.
  • FACT - Rejections for TPD (Total and Permanent Disability) claims have become commonplace for the likes of fibromyalgia, ME, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic pain & fatigue syndrome and mental health issues.

Beat the Banks can also help:

  • If you are simply looking for support when submitting a claim.
  • Where you have been mis-sold, or over sold insurance cover by your broker or bank. Big commissions can be earned by persuading unsuspecting victims into changing their mortgage term or increasing their borrowing and in turn re-broking their policies. Better quality and sometimes cheaper cover is then incorrectly dismissed as not fit for purpose. The fact is that re-broking insurance contracts earn brokers and banks considerably more than selling a mortgage.
  • Where you suspect that your broker or bank has deliberately omitted or under stated health issues on your insurance proposal, or mis-quoted your height or weight. ALL sadly surprisingly common. Remember a proposal for cover submitted, quoted with no health issues or within normal height to weight ratios, means cover is placed on risk immediately AND the commission paid without delay.
