Not everything works in life, even in times of life insurance. If you are paying premiums, your life insurance mistakes - ie hedges. If you are paying for a life insurance and overcome the period of the insurer (maybe 30 days), lapses. Make sure there is an expected consequence is not provided by the deadline, and you can "push" the same life insurance.

If you stop paying for a life insurance policy, you can read more leeway. If you have accumulated cash value in the policy, your insurance is likely to account for the present value to take to cover premiums.

According to the "U.S. individual life insurance persistence Day" in 2007 LIMRA International and the Society of Actuaries (SOA) is the entire report period 3.5 percent for life insurance, 7 percent for insurance Term Life, 4.6 percent for universal life insurance (UL) and 5.7 percent for universal life insurance policy with variable capital (LCV).

Some people pay for decades in their life insurance policies, and then throw in the towel and cancel their policy. What happened?

There are countless reasons someone decide to cancel a life insurance policy. Most do not need to continue to do with discretionary income to pay the premiums. John Dressner, vice president of the LIFE Foundation, a non-profit consumer education, said: "The failures are usually not for lack of desire, but because the financial conflicts to cover."

Experts have seen life insurance, life insurance people in the event of job loss, divorce, large medical expenses or loss of business means that tight budgets have fallen. Or buy a new TV instead of paying your life insurance premiums. (True story).

Other times, policyholders are replacing your existing policy with a new one.

Sometimes the decision is to have effect, is more emotional: The benefits seem to far in the future.

And sometimes losing insured contact with the agent who originally sold their life insurance if you think no one is available to drop your questions to answer.

Dressner points out that "someone bought it for a reason, because they wanted to protect." If you want to abandon the current policy of life insurance, whether you want to cover in the future to think about buying a new policy, a higher rate of life insurance because of their age and cause potential health problems.

Although there are no studies about the exact reasons why people are policy expired, we can learn from the past, life insurance buyers who leave the ship. Here are some tips for shopping for life insurance error based on other buyers.

Choose a guaranteed premium for this coverage need.

If you are looking for term life insurance, consider purchasing a policy of guaranteed bonuses during the period you are insured, instead of a raise after his term premium guarantees. Study LIMRA / SOA show that thermal gradients peak after periods of contribution to the level of guarantees. Maybe assured satisfied wage premiums, but were not prepared with a higher rate of life insurance on.

Consider: dropped 40 percent between its policy buyers in 10 years, when he finished at 15, when premiums were not paid the premium guarantee period and 30 percent of the seats.

In addition, those who are "poor" ratings without (issued by health problems) pay their policy in greater numbers after the first hours of warranty costs by LIMRA and SOA.

Buy adequate life insurance to cover your needs.

Did you buy a life insurance policy with a face value of up? Think if this policy is sufficient to cover you, because history shows that almost half of the people abandoned the policy of life insurance of $ 5,000 or less in the first year (more than 45 percent when to LIMRA / SOA study) . People with life insurance are much more common, rather hold on to them.

This trend extends to other types of policies. For example, buyers of the policy lapse long annual term of less than $ 200,000 more in the first five years that the buyer of broader policies. (After five years, the gap is closed.)

The difference in the size of the life insurance is quite remarkable with UL, where faced about 33 percent of people with the policies under $ 15,000 expiration policies of each of the first three years, compared to about 5 percent of those 10, the high quantities.

If you buy a whole life insurance, long-term commitment.

High thermal gradients for life insurance in the first five years. After that, prices are set within 3 to 5 percent of all life insurance, according to LIMRA and SOA. Do not throw away your money by paying for a whole life insurance policy from one to five years, only to abandon them.

Make sure that you understand what you are buying.

This is especially true if you opt for universal life and variable universal life energy capital in search of many "moving parts" that can have influence on the overdue premium and death benefit.

Achieve coverage of their life stage.

If you are under 30 years and life insurance purchase, carefully check whether you are required to pay the bill for the premium. Others, like you, 20 to 29, leave policies by many as the biggest buyer of LIMRA and SOA.

Find the way to pay.

Consider the payment of the premium account by electronic transfer from your bank account. Policyholders who are to pay this way more willing to keep their policy. Maybe because they do not have to sit down and have a check

Adding a "disability waiver of premium" rider on your life insurance.

Experts from many life insurance companies are no longer an obstacle to the insured gets a job. Disability waiver of premium rider cover your premium payments in this case.

Store in a good life insurance rates from the beginning.

If you issue a directive with a smoker or levels of "bad", make sure you follow the premium payments. The inhabitants of this political class gradient common in the first five years. For example, about 18 percent of smokers ends with life insurance policies in the first year, compared to 11 percent of the Non smoking, according to LIMRA and SOA.
