They were courteous, polite, and Quick and every agent was compassionate in the claims department. They answered all my questions. It was a noncontested policy and everything went smoothly. Would recommend this company.

We look forward to serving you for many years to come and we thank you for being a loyal customer!
I called to complain about Globe Life's awful policy service. In this case, the young lady was patient and allowed me to vent. I give her kudos. I know it was not her that failed us but those in Policy Service and I reiterated several times that I appreciated her listening. I am taking my six policies from Globe Life. It is patently obvious that the company cares about nothing but getting their premiums. When it comes to the simplest tasks that require editing items on my policy, they fail repeatedly. However, in this instance, I cannot fault the representative for her time and that's why I rate 'Good,' here rather than 'Average" - at best.
Stan, while we're happy you were satisfied with your recent interaction with Globe Life we apologize we didn't provide you with the service you expect or deserve in other instances. We're disappointed that we've lost your trust and your business and will use this unfortunate situation to improve our process of assisting our customers and policyholders. Thank you for taking the time to let us know where improvement is needed and look forward to the opportunity to serve you again in the future.

I took a life policy out on my grandson when he was a few months. I never thought I would use the policy. I never thought we would lose him at the age of 19. A parent and grandparents' worse nightmare. I am so thankful to Globe Life. We could not have taken care of him without the policy. The funeral cost were paid very quickly with no stress of me handling anything and I could stay focused on what needed done. Thank you from all of us.
Kathy, we send our sincere condolences to you and your family on the passing of your grandson. We pray for you and your family during this extremely difficult time. We appreciate you and the trust you placed in Globe Life and we're honored that we were able to be there for you and your family when you needed us the most. Thank you for choosing Globe Life and God bless you and your family.

Josephine, thank you for reaching out to Globe Life! We’re glad we delivered the excellent service you deserve and expect. We sincerely appreciate you choosing Globe Life.
Near 30 years with Globe and they do everything to make it difficult when you need to do business with them. After 25 years of drafting my account, my now adult child is the only one to make the payment on MY Account stop. I pay for the policies, I bought the policy, but Globe will not allow me to cancel the draft on MY account and request regular billing. Absurd. It's my money, my account and no way to stop payment debited on my acct., They actually let me have to cancel ALL 4 policies for my grandchildren currently debited and lose my business, since my only option is to block Globe, just to stop ONE debit from happening. Very poor business practices. Also, a relative is now on FOUR months in trying to file a claim on her relative. Not sure I have ever seen such BAD customer service anywhere, hence the BBB ratings and consumer complaints are very telling.

If this issue is still unresolved, please send us via PRIVATE response your full name, policy #, phone #, and the best time to contact you. We’ll have a supervisor reach out to you for a resolution.

The death of my mother was already traumatized experience and the last thing I wanted to deal with Globe Life refused to payout the benefit from the Life Insurance. I took a Life Insurance of $50,000 for my mother final arrangements and she passed, we assigned the Life Insurance to the funeral home where the services came up to about $19,0000 the third party would be paying to the funeral home. Globe life after numerous calls they have released only $8,000 to me, the amount to be released should have been at least $30,000.
My premiums of $252 was paid on time through automatically from my bank statement. The policy was in force. They have refused to tell me how did they came up with this amount of $8000.00 released to me. What happened with the remaining amount? Why they only paid $8,000.00? The funeral was $32,000, the third party assignment was about 19,000. From $50,000 - 19000 doesn’t add up to $8000.00. Is Globe life is a legitimate business? I need to report to my state consumer affairs and retain a lawyer to help with this situation.

My uncle passed in July of 2022. He had a policy with Globe Life & Accident Insurance for $25,000. The claim was 2 months from being held in the 2 year period. They researched his medical records for over 6 months before denying the claim. We are left with mountains of bills and heartache after his sudden death. Globe Life has not given a reason why it was denied. Be aware of this life insurance company! They will do anything to deny a claim!
Tina, we're very sorry for the loss of your uncle and we send our sincere condolences to you and your family.

Trying to cancel a policy that was transferred to me after my Mom died. First call resulted in no action on their part. I sent a request through their online form next, and that was ignored. I made a second call, and the representative told me using the form that was the wrong way to make my request. He told me that I need to send a bunch of info over email, including my SSN. I said I wasn't comfortable doing that, which was met with a weird attitude. I finally was gifted with the proper email address to contact, and they replied. The first time. They let me know which info to send to cancel the policy (didn't include my SSN). I sent that info and haven't heard back in 20 days. Reached out again and waiting.
Nathan, we're very sorry to hear about your mom's passing and the unfortunate situation with this cancelation issue, and the inefficiency of our service. If you could please send us via PRIVATE response your full name, your mom's name, policy #, phone #, and the best time to contact you. We'll have a representative contact you and resolve this issue to your satisfaction. We apologize for the inconvenience this caused you and look forward to hearing back from you soon.
I reapplied for life insurance, and was denied because of supposedly medication that’s on my prescription records, I’m a healthy 33 year old female mind you. I had insurance with this company up until February of this year… Now all of sudden I can get new life insurance because of my depression medication that I took in 2017 after the death of my child…
I haven’t taken medication since any type of medication since 2018, yet I am being denied life insurance this time around be I wasn’t denied in 2020. It’s wrong and unfair you can’t deny someone life insurance just because they took depression medication after the lost of their child!! Then no one ask why the medication was taken just denied me life insurance but if I am being denied now why wasn’t I denied in 2020? Seeing that my prescription history goes back to 2018 and 2017 was when I took the medication.
I was approved for life insurance through this company in 2020, I canceled my insurance because I realized it was term life and I needed whole life. Now I’m being denied insurance because of my depression medicine that I haven’t taken in 5 years. Like I said I’m a healthy female everything that’s on the prescription record shows medication I was prescribed during my pregnancy and after the loss of my child. Which I haven’t had a child in 5 years and haven’t taken depression medication in 5 years… which I lose my daughter 5 years ago. You can’t just deny someone off their prescription record without full details.

Our top priority is providing various types of affordable financial coverage to our customers and we're sorry this was your experience. If you'd like us to look further into your situation we invite you to send us via PRIVATE response your name, your phone number, and any other relative information regarding your previous policy number.
