A new life insurance plan that focuses on ease
WATERLOO, ON, Sept. 3, 2013 /CNW/ - Manulife Financial today launched
the latest in its suite of CoverMe™ life insurance products. The
CoverMe Easy Issue Life insurance plan is simple, straightforward life
insurance that can be purchased online or over the phone.
The CoverMe Easy Issue Life plan is a 10 year term life insurance plan
that offers two benefit amounts: $50,000 and $75,000. The application
process is streamlined and quick: there are two health-related
questions to answer when applying.
"We designed the CoverMe Easy Issue Life plan specifically for Canadians
who are looking for ease and affordability in their life insurance
plan," said Bob Doyle, Manulife Financial's Director of Strategic
Marketing. "Not only can it be purchased online or over the phone in
just a few minutes but we also guarantee that premiums don't increase
for 10 years, making payment planning straightforward."
CoverMe Easy Issue Life insurance is intended for adults who recognize
the importance of life insurance and who are interested in purchasing
quickly and easily - without lengthy medical questionnaires to complete
or medical exams when they apply.
"Many Canadians want simple, straightforward life insurance solutions
that can be obtained quickly, easily and at their convenience," said
Brian Gooding, Senior-Vice President and General Manager, Affinity
Markets. "We believe our CoverMe Easy Issue Life plan does just that."
