Life Cover frequently asked questions

Why should I buy life insurance?

It depends on where you are in life. However, for many people, life insurance is an excellent way to protect the things that mean the most to you – such as making sure your family’s financial future is more secure if something unexpected happens to you.

How do you work out the price of my life insurance?

Your premiums are based on lots of things, such as your age, height and weight, your health, whether you’re employed in a high-risk occupation, and whether you smoke.

How long should I take out life insurance for?

It’s really entirely up to you. We offer life insurance to cover you from a minimum of five years and up to your entire life. Before you decide, we recommend you talk to a VitalityLife Adviser, so that they can design a plan around what works specifically for you.

What are the minimum monthly premium and minimum cover amounts?

The minimum monthly premium for life insurance at VitalityLife is £8 and the minimum cover amount is £10,000. However, the level of cover you’ll get for £8 a month will depend on your age, height and weight, whether or not you smoke, general health and your medical history. The premium will be higher if you take advantage of our extended rewards and discounts.
