When you worry less about the future, you can get on with enjoying life. There's not much you can do about the inevitable, but you can put plans in place to help look after your loved ones.

We're pleased to offer Life Insurance and Critical 3 with Life Insurance, provided by AIG Life Limited (AIG Life) - a multi-award-winning life insurance provider.

All AIG Life customers also get 24/7 access to Smart Health which includes remote access to online, telephone and video GP appointments as well as a range of health and wellbeing services - all at no extra cost. Smart Health is provided to AIG Life customers by Teladoc Health. These services are non-contractual, which means they don't form part of the insurance contract with AIG Life. If AIG Life's partnership with Teladoc Health ends, these services could be changed or withdrawn in the future.

Life Insurance

While it's something no-one likes to think about, taking out Life Insurance could help to put your mind at rest. Features of AIG Life Insurance include:

  • Pays a single cash lump sum on diagnosis of a terminal illness or death
  • You choose the amount and length of insurance to suit your needs
  • Available from the ages of 17 to 86
  • Single or joint insurance available
  • Unlimited access to a 24/7 remote GP as well as a range of other health and wellbeing experts through Smart Health.

For joint insurance the policy will pay out if one of you dies or is diagnosed with a terminal illness before your insurance ends. Once we've made a payment your insurance will end.

Critical 3 with Life Insurance

Critical 3 with Life Insurance covers you against the 3 most common critical illnesses:

  • Cancer
  • Heart attack
  • Stroke

Conditions must be of a specified severity. A full definition of these conditions is explained in the insurance details document.

Why take out Critical 3 with Life Insurance?

  • Pays a single cash lump sum on diagnosis of a critical illness, terminal illness or death
  • A single lump sum to spend on whatever you need it for
  • A choice of the amount and length of insurance you would like to suit your needs
  • Available from the ages of 17 to 75
  • Single or joint insurance available

For joint insurance the policy will pay out if one of you dies or is diagnosed with a terminal illness, cancer, heart attack or stroke before your insurance ends. Both types of insurance only protect you against events that happen while you're insured. If something happens outside that time you won't be insured.
