“uninsurance”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 147McGuire on 16/12/2016

Set up insurance online which was easy enough. Then I was asked to send proof of identity which I did. I had to pay to get my doctor to sign and stamp my proof of identity. Sunlife lost this proof & then told me that they never received it and therefore they cannot send me my free gift. But are happy enough to keep taking My Money. I contacted them a few times to see if my insurance is valid and the woman I spoke to said yes but she wasn't really sure. Very insuring from an insurance company! Since then I get absolutely no correspondence from them at all, not even an email. Guarantee I will be cancelling my insurance with sunlife.

“£20 a month for 20 years”

★☆☆☆☆

written by DexterCarr39 on 28/10/2015

Paid £20 a month for 20 years, got back LESS than I actually paid them!?! Dont trust Parky, these people are bad, its kind of obvious when you see that they asvertise during the day with celebs and free gifts. Go check on Martin Lewis's site they have a track record of underpaying against similar companies. Terrible business, dont be fooled.

“Great service at a difficult time”

★★★★★

written by Tucker1979 on 01/07/2014

My mum had a policy - when she died they sorted everything in a professional and sensitive manner, in time to pay for the funeral. I have now taken out a policy so that my children won't ever have to worry about paying for my funeral. It's so easy and will save lots of heartache later.

“Easy application”

★★★★★

written by McKenziekm322 on 08/06/2014

I have just finished an endowment policy and looked around now for new life cover. Must say some other insurers make it extremely complicated to get life cover. Sun Life was in easy to understand English and very easy to navigate their website.

“good”

★★★★★

written by 110Lake on 20/03/2014

I lost my mum a year ago and she was with sunlife for years and they paid out very quickly after her death as she wanted to pay for her own funeral and not leave her children with the costs. Now my husband has reached 50 and we have taken sunlife out for him and I will certainly do it when I reach 50 then our children will have peace of mind if anything happened to us. Thank you sunlife.

Why wait until you're 50? I've had sun life cover for years. It matured just after my marriage broke down and the cash was really useful. I took out another one straight away and have just taken out another so I have some inheritance for my daughter. They have policies to suit all ages and budgets and if you don't claim, there's a little bit back! win win!

“How secure is your payment page? i would have liked to...”

★★★★★

written by villow7 on 30/01/2014

How secure is your payment page? i would have liked to see a bit more security notice of how safe it is to enter your card details as i do not like to put my card details on the Internet. so maybe a little bit about security but otherwise everything else was clear, quick and very easy to use and understand

“Easy to set up”

★★★★★

written by on 24/01/2014

Very easy to set up and helpful staff. Will wait and see what happens "when the time comes" but if it is as easy as arranging cover, it will be a weight off my mind later!

“BEST ALROUND DEAL”

★★★★★

written by GazCumbria on 02/12/2013

I contacted Sun Life after reading about their Over 50's Plan and compared to other well known companies. To my surprise, Sun Life offer far, far better service and value for money. The person who dealt with me answered all my questions, gave a quotation for the amount I selected, sent a secure link to fill in bank details, all this in SIX minutes, I was kept waiting for twelve minutes by another company when I asked a question I asked Sun Life. You've asked the rest, now try the best!
