When Would Life Insurance Not Pay Out?
November 15, 2014 Leave a comment
A Life insurance policy would not pay out a death benefit claim if the policy lapsed and there was no extended term benefit on the life insurance policy.
Also, if a policy is terminated for non-payment of premiums or you simply cancel your life insurance coverage, a death benefit is not paid out.
If you commit fraud, a felony or another similar act, the life insurance company will certainly contest the claim.
In addition, suicide is not paid out as a claim if the insured person commits suicide within 2 years of starting the life insurance policy. However, the suicide exclusion is only 1 year in some states.
