We asked to cancel our disability coverage and were told it would be taken care of. Unfortunately the company continued to debit our account for over a year. When we called to get this matter squared away they disregarded it altogether and stated they were unable to assist and refused to cancel our coverage despite our asking a 2nd time.
We’re sorry for the frustration with your disability coverage cancellation and continued debits.
For your privacy, please email customercare@mutualofomaha.com with:> Full name and policy number (or employer’s group name)

After having my whole life policy for 10 years, they stopped taking payments out of my account for the monthly premium. By the time I noticed, I log in and my policy was on hold. First, they tell me to submit money for interest on a loan I had, and the 3-month payment. Then I get a letter emailed me to only pay the 3-month premium. I called to confirm that and Amber said yes. Then I snail mail a check cause they "do not take payments over the phone". A week later, I log in to see that my policy was "surrendered" ... I did not surrender it! A few weeks ago I checked my account online and my surrender value was over $1,000. I called today and they said yes, it was surrendered and they mailed me a check for $75.00. What kind of racket are they running.

RUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!! I used mutual of Omaha for about a year before I decided to cancel my policy. More than a year later they continue to call, send letters and threaten to send me to collections for a balance that I do not know them.

Avoid this company!!! If you're senior citizen needing a medicare supplement they'll raise your premium as fast as they can. You will also receive more garbage in the mail wanting to sell you every form of insurance like cancer insurance, heart attack insurance, life insurance etc. They make it seem as though they supplement doesn't cover heart attacks and cancer treatment in which it does. Their just trying to soak you for more money.

On November 4th Mutual of Omaha issued me two policies, which I did not ask for; the last three digits were transposed and it was obviously their mistake. I called immediately since I was billed twice and asked for a refund and the second policy to be canceled. One ended in ** the other ended in **. I was told there was no way to electronically return my money, that it had to be sent by check, which later I found out was incorrect. If they had asked for my social security number, then they could have sent it back to the same bank account that they debited.
The girl on the phone said she canceled the policy and that I would get a check within 5 to 7 business days, but there was no way to electronically return the funds. Time went by. I called on November 17th and even spoke to a manager whom I ended up hanging up on because she was an idiot. She said the check was issued on November 13th, which was 9 days after I was told the policy was canceled and that I would get a check within 5 to 7 days. I called again today, the 19th of November. I received the second policy in the mail today and two letters saying I had authorized them to electronically charge my bank account. In this day and age, I do not understand why they cannot electronically refund the money.
But the manager on the 17th was not willing to work with me whatsoever. And then today, when I got the policy that allegedly was canceled, and two letters saying that they had authorization to debit my bank account for both policies, I hit the roof. I called, and they said that they could not electronically send me the funds because there was no Social Security number on file. I just told her that on the original call, I had asked her if there's any way to electronically return the funds since they electronically debited me. That rep said no. But if she had asked for my social security number at that time, then yes, she could have returned the money to the very exact same account that it came out of.
Now I'm being told that the policy wasn't canceled until the 13th and that it takes 7 to 10 business days for the check to be received, which makes it December 1st before I even get a refund. This is unacceptable business practice and absolutely unconditionally ridiculous. None of the reps would let me talk, they just kept saying that's not the way we do things, we have to follow our policies. So I canceled my electronic permission to debit my bank account at Bank of America. I also sent them a message in their portal saying that if they do charge me again, I will sue them and I will.
I am going to look for another insurance company that has guaranteed issue for ages 45 to 65 and even if it's a little higher premium, I'm going to go with them. Because Mutual of Omaha as long as they have been in business have declined in their practices. I used to be a stockbroker for 25 to 30 years, including my managerial license, I used to sell whole life mainly for annuities and investment purposes. There has never ever been a time that at Merrill Lynch or Charles Schwab or the old Smith Barney or the old Prudential Bache ever treated their customers like this. Today the lady on the phone said that if I cancel my automatic payments, there's no guarantee that I will get a monthly payment plan, which is absurd.
I asked her what the grace period is and she said 31 days so that being said, I have a 31-day grace period legally, LEGALLY, may I repeat MYSELF, LEGALLY to continue to get billed on a monthly basis if I stay with them, which is highly doubtful. Everyone that I have spoken to, except for the first girl on the November fourth has been rude, disrespectful, and utterly obnoxious. I would recommend anybody to run from this company... Even though they've been in business for over 100 YEARS, DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO business with them. There are FAR BETTER COMPANIES with much better customer service and respect, with the same or very similar prices.

The insurance is unreasonable to judge to approve or disapprove your short term disability. They thought everyone is the same to go through their surgeries process. Or maybe they know but they just want to denies your claims and not honor your claims. My company uses it because they are cheaper than other insurance company. But if it is my individual choices I will not go for this company that will not be with you in a hard time event my doctor ordered me to have time off because of my knee pain after surgery is more than other people as I have GE issue and cannot talked NSAID medicines. This insurance company just doesn’t care and said everyone doesn’t have issues to come back to work in your kind of job. Terrible!!

So I've tried this company 2 times in 3 years....I had mortgage coverage for my first policy, I went about 10 months on automatic payments before they abruptly canceled my policy. I got a new policy earlier this year with them which was a life insurance policy. I paid on automatic payments at the 1st of each month. They have been charging my bank faithfully since February, this week I get a letter from them saying my policy has been canceled since April 2025....Yet I'm still getting charged month to month, I know because my bank statement on the 1st of November shows them charging my bank account. In my experience this company has some sketchy services when it comes to maintaining policies and payments. Not recommended.

Had United World Life supplement through MofO. They raised rates 37%. Told I could switch within MofO. They offered no other plan. UWL no longer writing policies. Leaving me with nowhere to go. Told I could use my birthdate to switch Lie. My rate went up from 199.90 to 267.00. Outrageous. Was told sorry, no plan at MofO could take me. Had to go through underwriting. Wouldn't be accepted. Yet when I got UWL there was no underwriting. Switching within the company, should find a company for you. I was not forced out of UWL for medical, but for greed on part of Mutual of Omaha.

Literally pointless for life insurance. You can die the day after getting it and you're not covered till after 2 years. My dad passed and it wasn’t 2 years so we had to pay for the whole after death things and all they gave is what was paid with a %10. You have to die from accident to get policy. It’s literally pointless and remember none of us know when we are going to die.

July 22nd I had a freak accident and slipped on my freshly waxed hard wood floor. I automatically contacted Mutual of Omaha after I filed FMLA with my company. Mutual of Omaha is who my company switched our short term and accidental policies to. This being said I have dealt with Aurora for my STD and Felicia for my accident insurance. These two ladies always answer the phone when I call. I follow directions and do check ins with them. If I’m confused of something they are very knowledgeable and willing to help. This is the best company.
This is the first time I’ve ever had to deal with an accident claim and I was completely lost. Felicia has been a god send and as far as Aurora she’s absolutely amazing whereas when I had to use STD from an d company with the birth of my daughter from Aflac I didn’t get answers or the support I get from Mutual of Omaha. I will definitely use them for all my policies when I have to do my enrollment stuff for my company this year for the 2026 year. They are amazing!!!

I bought a plan years ago, and it sounded great, but I was wrong. Turns out that after you reach the face value, you keep on paying. You could end up paying 2 to 3 times the face value of the policy. I went in to see what I could cash the policy in for and found out they will offer you less than 1/3 the money you paid in. They use your money for years, and you get nothing in return, not even a paid-up policy. Don't be fooled by their ads, you're better off starting a savings account and get everything you put into it plus interest. I don't want to pay hundreds over face value for a policy, so I'll take the 2/3 loss and cash it in. Put the money in a bank account.

My brother recently passed away unexpectedly last year, and doing the time of his passing he was covered by the above insurance company for over three years at the time of him passing. The payments was automatically withdraw semi monthly, according to the bank statements and continuous insurance invoices and withdrawal notifications.
Even after submitting all required documentation and also a letter from the insurance agent who also work for the above insurance company the insurance company continues to argue that the policy lapsed the week after it was issue but the date that the insurance company stated that the policy lapsed was a day before the policy was in effect. I didn't know how to respond to the ignorance. How can the policy show in your computer that it laps on a day before my brother policy went into effect. All original documentation was issue payment statements basically receipts proof of his coverage monthly, thank you for your payment letters from the above insurance company. They continues deny my loved one his resting benefits.
Also keep in mind this is occurring doing I will grieving process, now that it has become a legal matter and it can linger and linger my loved one still had to be laid to rest even though it was against our belief's cremation was our only option until our family apart to result in this option. Now that it's a legal matter, the grieving process continues.

It’s been 26 years since my father passed from cancer. Was going through some old paperwork and found the life insurance denial letter from 1999. He had paid on the policy for nearly 30 years went on disability in June 1998 and was allowed 12 months coverage extension in which he paid the premium on until February 1999 and passed on April 1. He had pd. on this policy his entire work career 30 + years and guessing his focus was not on paying the premium last month of his life. Still irritates me all these years later. I personally have nor will ever purchase anything associated with Mutual of Omaha.

I understand that the agents do not work directly for Mutual of Omaha. However, you would think that they might check into these agents occasionally to see if they're doing their job correctly. An agent came to my senior living facility and did a presentation, and I signed up that day. We discussed that my widow's benefit loads the fourth Wednesday of every month, and I would like my premium payment due on the 28th of every month. Over memorial Day weekend the payment went out on the 24th of the month, and this is a little embarrassing to admit, but I had $26 in my checking account at that moment. So needless to say it put me in the red plus a $35 non-sufficient fun charge with my bank. I tried to call the agent at least 20 times that weekend. I emailed her and I texted her. Her phone did not have a voicemail setup on it. So that was the first red flag!
In her defense she did show up at my apartment on Tuesday following Memorial Day, with a deposit receipt from my bank of $50 where she put the $50 back in. However I don't really understand the complete reason why but she wanted me to change the policy to my beneficiaries name for the first two years of the policy. So I spoke with the beneficiary and this person did not agree to do that. So I tried to call the agent over and over again emailed and text with no response no answer, to let her know I wanted to cancel the policy. So today I took matters in my own hands and I called Mutual of Omaha corporate offices and cancel it.
During that phone call I received a text from Mutual of Omaha saying that my bill my premium payment was coming out auto pay on the 25th of June. Now I don't know about other people but typically when you tell someone here's the date that it can be paid that's usually the date that they make it to be paid on. I don't know if this woman just dismissed me didn't listen or what we agreed on the 28th. So no I would not recommend Mutual of Omaha to anyone because of this agent. I really really wanted life insurance to leave my children something but it will not be with Mutual of Omaha. I just wonder if there's anyone out there that has had the same, how do I put this, experience that I have? I hope you don't have to go through it!

This is the worst company to have life insurance with, last year in August I put my grandmother in a $10,000 dollars policy for $94.00 dollars a month and it had to be reinstated once due to a monthly missed payment. So make a long story short my grandmother passed away yesterday at the age of 80 and they told me since she didn't live two years on the policy that they can only mail me the amount that I paid since she was on the policy, not the $10,000 they promised, now I have to come up with the rest of the money to get my grandmother put away right, so please do use this insurance company for life.

My mom paid for several years for their life insurance. She was diagnose with cancer and was subsequentially as terminally ill and this company cancelled her policy when they found out about it. I was with her when she went to check on the policy at one of their offices and was told of the cancellation. She was trying to plan so we wouldn't have to do it and they hit us in the gut. She was totally devasted. Years later they have nerve to send me quotes for a policy. It was a monment that you never forget. That's how they operate, scandalous. I get angry everytime I see the name Mutual of Omaha. My mom was emotionallycrushed with that news. They didn't care about what she was through or the payments that she'd made. That is what I remember about their business practice. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

I just wanted to say that I can't believe how easy it was for me to file a claim with Mutual of Omaha Life Insurance just a few hours ago. I am blown away at how pain free that was. My father just suddenly passed away and once I knew who he held a policy with, I simply called them and they handled the rest. This is the standard for how an insurance company should operate and clearly does operate. Mutual of Omaha clearly cared about me and my loss and showed me empathy.

I opened a life insurance policy for what I thought was a good deal $12,000 in coverage for $64 a month. Two year waiting period. My two year waiting period was up on May 4th, 2025. In March of 2025, I took out a loan against my policy. I received it and cashed the loan check. Next thing I know I have a letter in the mail stating, "We're sorry to see you go but as you requested we canceled your insurance policy." And a separate letter at a refund check for my most recent premium of $64. It's funny how when my policy is about to mature they cancel it supposedly at my request and I did not request it. Total rip off. Do not do business with this company!

I have had this coverage which was labeled as a life insurance policy on my bank statement and it was $17.07 a month for years. Well I had an accident in October of 2024 and was paralyzed, so I wasn't too worried about it being a life insurance policy because I did die so I called that a couple times in December and my agent didn't return my calls so I called again a different number in January 10th 2025 to change my payment information and I was told that my policy was a accident and life insurance policy and it was canceled because it was over 30 days late!! Do not give this company a penny of your money if you do, you might as well just kiss it goodbye. Blair ** and proud! A paraplegic proud! Thanks a lot, Mutual of Omaha. Not!

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dealing with Paige from the claims department, and I was extremely disappointed by her lack of empathy during a very difficult time. Not only did she fail to offer any condolences for my recent loss until after I made comment, but her tone was also unnecessarily rude.

The customer service is quite lacking. I do not like being made to feel that I'm bothering a representative when I ask questions about my policies. Mutual of Omaha has foreign and somewhat strange practices around their policies, which is okay. What is not okay is when I need the process(es) explained to me, I'm treated like garbage when I ask for clarity. This has happened multiple times and I'm 2 seconds from switching to another life insurance company. There are other companies that treat their customers with respect.

The claim process is extremely complicated. They want everything faxed. Who uses Fax machines anymore. You provide one document then they ask for another, then another. They should provide a complete checklist when the claim is filed. If you get irritated or upset with the process they are not empathetic. They simply threaten to hang up on you.
