At Cover Today, we’re delighted to be the only Over 50 Life Insurance provider in the UK with no waiting period. As soon as you’re accepted, you’re covered from day one1. As the only provider in the market with no waiting period, we feel like it's important to explain why we have decided to have this as a key feature of our Over 50 Life Insurance policies. Let us tell you a bit more about why.
What is a waiting period for Over 50 Life Insurance?
Here in the UK, many Over 50 policies feature a waiting period. This is a period of time (typically between 12 to 24 months) at the beginning of the policy. Most providers will only pay out your policy's lump sum right away if you were to pass away accidentally. If you were to pass away for any other reason, you will still have to wait the 12-24 months before being eligible to receive your benefit. This isn't this case with Cover Today Over 50s Life Insurance. All we need are your answers to a few simple health questions over the phone, and once you’re accepted for cover, you’ll be protected instantly for death due to any cause.
