You must keep up with your monthly payments otherwise your policy may lapse and cover will cease. If you lose your cover and wish to restart it at a later date you may be quoted a higher price.
Many insurers do have a grace period of 30 days or so, in case a payment is missed. This is mostly to prevent mistakenly cancelled direct debits, rather than to be relied upon as a payment break.
If you are struggling to meet your payments, please contact us and we will work with you to alter your current policy or find a new policy that works within your budget.

I spoke to Henry who was knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful.
He took me through the details of life insurance and critical illness. He found a very well priced cover plan, which I took out. Wonderful company.

Had a consult with Tommy Farthing, absolute pleasure dealing with him. Extremely patient, clear understanding of the information he provided, made me feel at ease through the entire process as I was rather edgy at first. I never felt pressured or treated like a mere run through receiving my consult. Thank you Tommy.

Amazing service from Luke Maguire…
Luke Maguire assisted us to find a life and critical policy that suited our needs and budget, he did so with time and care. Luke gave us plenty of time to consider options and was full of knowledge to support us to decide. Luke went over and above dedicating time that suited us but meant he would be late leaving off.
