    Ethos Life Insurance gave me quotes online, fast and easy, and it's cheaper than anybody else I found. The agent who reached out to me followed up and took my credit card over the phone. She was very professional. She explained all the details and gave me her direct number to reach out if I have any questions. I'm very satisfied. I have peace of mind that if I die, my daughter is secure financially.

      I do not find Ethos legitimate. I find their advertising false and misleading. I applied for a policy in March of this year. I went through and abided by their processing and told I was approved. 60 days later and after paying three months of premiums for the policy, I was told by ExamOne that my policy was being audited. I was assured in writing the policy wasn’t undergoing post approval underwriting, and that this was simply a formality. My doctor records were requested, even though I approved their release at approval of the policy. Now, four months later, my policy is being re-underwritten. I have I been told multiple times the policy was approved and asked what was happening. I have had other life insurance policies and this is highly abnormal compared to other life insurance procedures I have experienced.

      I believe that they issue an approval upfront with a full intent to underwrite the policy some 3 to 4 months later, after collecting 3 to 4 months of premiums, fully intending to deny or change the policy terms but then they keep the premiums. If this in fact, plays out, I intend to contact the state Attorney General’s office. At this point, I would not recommend this company. Beware.

      I did not have a positive experience as I felt misled. After answering a series of health questions, Ethos shared a rate of life insurance. Then after going through additional underwriting, rates came back 10 times higher. I was open and honest from the beginning about my health, and did not appreciate being misled with fake rates. A family member who had a much better experience with Ethos referred me, but I did not have the same experience they did.

      Coverage options and premiums are determined through the underwriting process, which takes a variety of individual factors into consideration. Because each applicant’s circumstances are unique, the final outcome may differ from an initial estimate.

      Ethos advertises a good insurance for not a whole lot of money. I signed up and the process was very easy. I had a very nice gentleman call me and spoke with me about the product and answered any questions that I have. He was very courteous, very kind, and very patient, and called me back when he told me he was gonna call me back. Along with the cost of the plan that I purchased, the biggest benefit has to be the customer support. The customer support was excellent through the whole process.

      Not happy with this company at all. Recently got a life insurance policy from them. It has been 3 weeks and still don't know my policy number. I ask them to email me my number and they refuse to do it. I have got all kinds of reasons why I have not got my policy from I did not have the money in my account to it takes 3 weeks from the day they take the money out of my account till they receive it. Now just do you know my money is in my account by the 3rd of every month. They are to take the money out on the 4th of every month which they did. First time I called was on hold for Hour and 56 minutes. Next 2 times I called in was on hold for almost an hour each time. You can't understand what they are saying don't speak good English. I would not be so upset but was sent an email that my policy would be in my hand in 3 to 5 days. Now it's going on 4 weeks and still don't have it or a policy number.

      I'm a licensed insurance agent, and I contracted with Ethos, and it was the easiest way for me to secure some additional coverage since I was underinsured. I had about a million and a half in coverage, but based on my income, mortgage, and other income needs for my wife, if I were to pass away, I felt I needed another million dollars.

      Getting the coverage was super easy. I wanted to do it for two reasons. One, ‘cause I was under-insured. Two, I wanted to understand the process, so when I refer clients to Ethos, I'll know what they can expect going through. I had an answer within five minutes. There was no medical. Had a couple of slight medical things in my MIB, and they just came back with clarifying questions and got approval. Probably could have gotten a cheaper rate somewhere else, but it was pretty much a middle ground between Preferred and Standard. I was happy with the price. Ethos is the easiest, biggest way to secure term insurance without going through the hassle of medical underwriting, intrusive interviews, and blood tests.

      I just intended to review some insurance companies online and asked what were the best for people over 50. Yours was #1 and I started the process. It was fast, easy, and prices pretty reasonable! I would definitely recommend Ethos to others! I was in the military for 30 years and never felt the need when I was younger to get another policy. That was a huge mistake but I am glad thankful I found you and I have a peace of mind that my family will be financial secure in the event of my death! Thank you!!!

      Ann provided amazing customer service from start to finish. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable with my decision. I really appreciated how patient and knowledgeable she was, nothing ever felt rushed or pressured, which made the whole process so much easier. She helped me find a policy that fit exactly what I was looking for and was actually affordable, which was really important to me. Overall, the experience was smooth and stress-free, and I’m really glad I got to work with her.

      My experience with Ethos has been great. It was really easy setting it up, and I got it done relatively fast. I'm about to have my third child so I decided to get a life insurance. I had a policy before, but unfortunately, I went through some pretty gnarly life circumstances at the time. That policy lapsed because I totally had forgotten about it and forgotten to pay it. I wanted to get back on track and hopefully use a better company, and I’m happy with Ethos so far.

      I like the self-service ability of Ethos. I'm the kind of person where I like to just navigate things on my own. I really prefer anything that's self-accessible or anything that I can do online on my own. So, I liked that it was minimal interaction with representatives. I haven't had too much experience with other companies, but Ethos is better than the last one I used. I'm impressed with it. I hope that it works out.
