A New Year ‘Stop Smoking’ Resolution Could Save You Money on Life Insurance

Not only will those who quit benefit from a substantial cut in expenditure from the cigarettes themselves, but once they have not smoked or used tobacco or nicotine products for 12 months, they will also be able to benefit from non smoker rates for their life insurance.

A male aged 35 with a 25 year level term life insurance policy could reduce their monthly premium by 42%* by being eligible for non smoker rates, saving £78 a year.

Smokers who quit can request an automatic reminder by email or text to review their life premiums after 12 months by using L&C’s LifePROMPT service.

Richard Morea, technical manager at L&C says “those who stop smoking at the start of 2010 should register with Lifeprompt now so they are reminded to review their life insurance costs in 12 months time. If they are successful in their quest to stop smoking, they will also be able to benefit from savings on their life insurance this time next year”.

*Monthly premium for a male aged 35, non Smoker, £100,000 level term insurance policy £8.90
Monthly premium for a male aged 35, smoker, £100,000 level term insurance policy £15.40
