My fmo informed me that American Continental, a Genworth company, will be coming to IN soon and they are looking to compete with United World here. Does anyone use this company in thier state? Are they competitve.

I also heard that United World should be getting an increase in the next couple months... is that true? How much? Hopefully I will have American Continental soon. I am excited to get in on a brand new plan, It seems like everytime i start with a company (after they've been competitive for a couple years)they get an increase for the first time in 4 years and then i have to switch again.

All of the players are going to have rate increases it's just part of the game and the seniors know and accept that. People will buy and won't buy for a variety of reasons,price being one main ingredient.

I recently talked with a Genworth rep who was trying to recruit me. Apparently their Supp is competitive in some states and not others (unfortunately not competitive in mine). United World (owned by Mutual of Omaha) is usually the #1 or #2 cheapest in LA depending on zip code and is an A rated company.

What you described is what I call "the game" with supps. I don't know a successful agent who hasn't changed companies they are appointed with umpteen times over the years because of rate increases.
