I met with a guy today, 68 years old, non tobacco user that just bought an AG UL about 3 months ago.
It's $100,000 face and he has had some heart issues. It's a table 6 and he pays $535/mo. for it.
He didn't know it was UL. He thought he had bought whole life. Mainly for the guarantees. He said he got out of another UL because the face amount had been reduced.
He has a letter from the agent saying that the premiums on this policy will "never" increase and that the face will "never" decrease.
The policy doesn't say that anywhere that I could find. It also doesn't say "no lapse" anywhere. It did say in the policy that, if it was issued under age 70, {which it was}, that the premiums and the face are guaranteed for 10 years. I take that to mean that his face amount could be reduced or his premiums increased. He says that the agent told him that it did not mean that, thus the separate letter from the agent.
Does AG have a UL policy that guarantees the face and premium? And, if they do, would it be worded in such a manner.
I could get him a whole life for about $20/mo less pending underwriting, of course. He is not really concerned about cash values. He really wants the face and premium guaranteed and, if that's what he has, he is content to leave it alone.
I am puzzled by the separate letter from the agent if the policy is fully guaranteed.
Not being well versed in the moving parts of a UL, I thought I would get some expert opinions here.
