The quotes are returned on screen instantly, and there is then the option to continue with the application through the chosen provider.
Of course, buying life insurance is more than just a search for the cheapest premium, especially when you include critical illness as an option.
And with the forthcoming onslaught of Pension Term Assurance policies, it is getting more and more important to consider getting good advice when buying your life insurance, to ensure that the cover you buy is really the cover you need.
