Term assurance 70:10 business can be submitted online from 1 October 2007  

As part of Legal & General’s commitment to maintaining its position as the number one Protection provider in the market, and further to the Protection Update Special Issue from June 2007 ( click here to view ), we are pleased to announce that Online Protection (OLP) can accept Term Assurance 70:10* business online from 1 October 2007.

From 1 October 2007, you will be able to use OLP to quote and apply for all 70:10 term business, making use of e-rates and e-commission. This means you no longer need to use paper applications for your term business!** Your term 70:10 business can now benefit from all the advantages you’ve been used to when using OLP including:

  • Immediate decisions at point of sale for your clients
  • Ability to put these cases on risk sooner resulting in quicker commission payments
  • Saving you time

Transition arrangements
While we were waiting for OLP to be updated we were honouring ‘e’ rates and ‘e’ commission on term 70:10 paper applications (as featured in Protection Update Special Issue from June 2007). Although paper applications will no longer need to be used, for term 70:10 business from Monday 1 October we appreciate that you may have very recently put some in the post. Therefore we will continue to honour ‘e’ rates and ‘e’ commission on paper applications for term 70:10 business received by our service teams up to and including Friday 5 October 2007.
