Extremely frustrating setting up
Extremely frustrating setting up
Auto pay. It took FOUR times, a rejected policy because of this. We had auto pay set up for 25 years on our previous policies, not sure why SBLI couldn’t get it straight. We were just about ready to move our policies elsewhere.
5. august 2025
Svar fra SBLI
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry for the frustration you’ve experienced with setting up Auto Pay. We understand how important a smooth process is, especially when you’ve had a long history of successful automatic payments.
Because these are new policies, we’re required to receive a signed and dated authorization form to set up payments, which ensures your information is secure and accurate. Unfortunately, there were some account detail issues that caused delays.
We’d like to help get this resolved quickly for you. We encourage you to connect directly with your agent, who can work with our team to finalize the setup and make sure everything runs smoothly moving forward.

Electronic vs Hard Copy Communication.
In telephone discussions it was not clear to me that all communication and signing would be electronic. My understanding was I would receive documents via mail. The result is I did not respond to emails expecting mail delivery. SBLI withdrew the premium without signature. Overdraft was the result. Subsequent phone call to SBLI customer service confirmed 'documents in the mail'. Finally I had a phone call saying I needed to use the electronic process. Using electronic transactions is not convenient for me. It requires assistance that is not immediately available. This review is being done with assistance. Please be clear at the beginning of the process about communication. If a client prefers hard copy documents, it should be an option. Thank you.

Dear Joan,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand how important it is to feel confident and supported during the application and policy delivery process, and that includes making sure communication is clear and accessible every step of the way.
Please know that using electronic transactions is not a requirement. If electronic communication or signing presents a challenge, you absolutely have the option to complete your process with paper documents. We want to make sure you feel comfortable and supported.
If you’d prefer step-by-step assistance, our Customer Service team is here for you and happy to walk you through the process. You can reach them Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time at 800-694-7254.
Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and any resulting impact, and appreciate your patience. If there’s anything more we can do to support you, please don’t hesitate to let us know.

Expensive policy and phone-heavy customer service
The policy is a bit expensive but relatively average-ish for the industry.
What struck me was the phone-heavy focused customer service. For such an expensive life insurance policy, I would expect better and more efficient touchpoints. I had an agent call me repeatedly (business doesn't get done over the phone anymore...) and slowed things down. The broker/agent also never took the time to share what the full process looked like, so I could expect each step along the way. Instead, he liked to call at random times with non-updates. Update: I have learned that SBLI has an 'automatic dialer system' that sends out calls to customers and the sales people (agents) are expected to make a certain number of calls (per day/week/month/etc). No wonder! What gets measured...gets done.
Dear SBLI Sales Management --- work to get SBLI in the 21st century on sales methods that don't annoy customers. Consider improving communication channels (email/electronic means over phone), measure what really matters (closing a deal with happy customers and not measuring the number of phone calls an agent makes!) and better transparency on the process/steps so that the customer doesn't have to guess what might come next. Look at what some of the best customer service across other industries do (Amex, USAA, etc.) for inspiration!

Your phone wait times are insanely long
Personal on the phone very helpful. Wait times to talk to a person are insane. And you keep playing the same excuse driven messages. You don’t change. So I did. I canceled or cashed in 3 policies. I will let one more expire soon.
So in the end, crappy service does result in lost
business.
I’m not looking for someone to reach out to me. You have the data of your crappy phone wait times. It’s been like this for 4 years. ‘Thank you for your patience. We are experiencing high call volumes’? I’m not patient. You seem to be an excuse driven organization with no desire to fix terrible service.

Horrible experience !
Had a family health crisis and my wife who pays the bills forgot to pay one quarterly payment. SBLI cancelled my life insurance. Had to jump through hoops to get reinstated, ultimately because of a recent health diagnosis, reinstatement was denied. 25 plus years of on time payments I guess means nothing. My family will be financially fine if and when I pass. Just a warning to all who will consider SBLI.

I made a premium payment on June 25 online, I then called SBLI to change my payment to direct payment, then I was charged another premium payment 5 days later on June 30th

Hello Mary,
Thank you for reaching out. I understand how it could be frustrating to see two premium payments so close together, and I’d be happy to clarify what happened.
Our records show that your initial online payment of $216.66 was submitted on June 23, which paid the premium that was originally due on March 13, 2025. The next scheduled payment of $216.66 was drafted on June 26, and that applied to your June 13, 2025 premium—bringing your policy current.
You called us on June 30 to request the removal of automatic payments, and we’ve processed that change.
While both payments occurred in June, they each covered a different billing period and were both needed to bring your policy up to date. I hope this helps clear things up, and if you have any other questions or concerns, we’re always here to help.
