Bequest Reviews

No stress at all to wrap things up, a real game changer with my little one in the other arm.

Easy and quick

The team was super helpful. I can't complain, especially Ollie, who was fast at sorting out my problem and really went the extra mile to assist me.

I purchased their premium will, but they turned me down for life insurance. I received a follow-up call, and it was because of my medical history. I was really hoping to get my life coverage with them, you know?

I handled everything through my phone, and I genuinely appreciated how simple they made the process.

I have a top-notch will through Bequest. I tried to get life insurance from them as well, but they turned me down because of my past medical issues 😞

It's a fantastic thing to have for peace of mind.

I didn’t have any life insurance, but I went ahead and made a will. Now, I'm just waiting for the paper version to arrive.

I was really taken aback by how easy it was to set up my will online. My notary was looking to charge me over a grand for the same service. This is a total game changer, bringing much-needed transparency and integrity to a process that’s super important: the well-being of you and your loved ones.

Update 2 (29Sep21) - Had a long chat with Ollie today (he rang me at the scheduled time) and I brought up some concerns regarding their questionnaire. He shared that they’re working on enhancing certain parts of it and will provide additional clarifications.

I’ve raised my rating to acknowledge their solid customer service and my faith that they’ll indeed improve the questionnaire soon.

-------------------

Update - Just shot you an email from my other account that I used to register with Bequest.

I see the good intentions (hence the 2 stars instead of just 1). But honestly, I’m a bit skeptical about how things are being handled.

My wife and I have life insurance with LV and even some newer companies like Dead Happy. We thought we’d give Bequest a try. With no major health issues or history (knock on wood), it seems we’re not eligible for Bequest based on their criteria! Not quite sure how that works.

Also, when I tried calling them, I had to ring 4-5 times and got disconnected each time since all lines were busy (shouldn’t there be a queue instead of just hanging up?!). On my 6th attempt, a receptionist answered and said everyone was occupied. She couldn’t help with my questions but offered to take my details and have someone get back to me in a day or so.

It’s been over a week, and I still haven’t heard anything. Not that I’m really keen anymore.

In short, I’m not too impressed with the product triaging and the lack of follow-up from customer service.

It was super fast and simple! At 24, I’m really hoping I won’t need it just yet, but once I get my life sorted with a mortgage and all that, I’ll definitely want something for my family in case I’m not around.

After recently bringing a little one into our lives, I knew it was crucial to ensure my family was protected in case of any unfortunate events. Securing my life insurance with Bequest turned out to be an incredibly smooth and straightforward experience, providing us with total peace of mind!

Awesome experience. I had been delaying making a will for ages, believing it would be a lengthy and tricky process. But with Bequest, it turned out to be super simple and only took about half an hour. For my peace of mind, the service was incredible and totally professional; I couldn't ask for more.

I had no clue how much I didn’t know about safeguarding my wife and me until I stumbled upon Bequest. We’re a Canadian couple residing in the UK and were unaware that our assets here weren’t covered by our will from back home.

Bequest assisted us in obtaining a FREE will to ensure our assets here were protected, and their self-service life insurance platform is a total game changer. We received a quote for a policy in under 15 minutes, and it was super straightforward! No health check-ups, no awkward questions from a rep on the phone, and no discrimination regarding mental health.

This is definitely the way forward. I highly recommend it.

It was straightforward to grasp, even for someone like me. Fingers crossed that everything turns out okay.
