Cheap rubbish policies most of the time. Best avoided unless there is some niche coverage required.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0

What is the full name? There are many with American in the title. If it is American International Group (AIG), it is one of the biggest in the world. Go to Yahoo finance and do a search for AIG in the stock search field.FREEDOM IS NOT FREE0

Sorry - just saw your last post re: full name. If that is what it is called, it is either a subsidiary of a larger company or one you want to stay away from.FREEDOM IS NOT FREE0

I cannot make recommendations on the board as it is in breach of board rules and I would also be in breach of FSA rules. That aside, no one company comes out top every time when looking at permanent health insurance (PHI). Different occupations, age, deferment period and levels of cover influence who would appear top.
Because of the wide range available, you dont see many internet quote portals offering it. It isnt high profit either and internet sites like to cherry pick. I'm afraid, short of doing a lot of your own research, the best way is to get a local IFA to quote on PHI.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
