Mom took out State Life Long Term Ins. because a sales rep came by her home 17 years ago.She didn’t ever want to go to the nursing home, prefering to stay in her home with help. She has dementia now and has had caregivers around the clock since Nov. 2014 after falling and going to the hospital with broken pelvic bones. As her POA I started a claim with State Life Sept. 2015. I have been given the run around for a year and 4 months and stil no money has been paid to my mom. Advice don’t take out Long Term Life Ins with State Life

Even after meeting the 2 ADL’s requirement for a claim they would not release the funds. Horrible experience.

Have long-standing annuity. Started RMD last year. They calculated wrong amount. I needed to work through their system to get corrected which was not easy. Called to make sure it went through this year. Never received verification of automatic withdrawal. Never received contact back after initial conversation. Would not recommend. Appears very poorly managed.

Seems this company has made changes in their claims processing based on other reviews. Handled Mom’s LTC claim and will for the rest of her life.

My mom has diligently paid her premiums for over 25 years. In 2017, she fell..broke all the vertebrae in her neck and nicked her spinal cord. She endured multiple surgeries, over a year of inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation. Confined to a wheelchair for the better part of the year..and still continues to suffer side effects. State life has come up with any and every reason to decline coverage. Literally, she would have been thrilled to have even satisfied the 90 elimination period…but they always responded with some excuse. What a complete waste of money and time…that she will never get back. I am praying that no one else has to endure the absolute extraordinary unprofessional behavior that she has.
