Efficient and Easy Life Insurance Evaluation
With my Term Life Insurance Premium's skyrocketing to 4-digits per month, I talked with my financial advisor, he said there were companies that bought policies like mine. I researched online, found and vetted, OVID Life and the regional director, account services, Dan Winegrad, called me within 24 hours to discuss the process. I previously had a very stressful review a few years back--the company had me going in circles with supplying information--saying they were not getting access to my records etc. it was time wasting, and they never gave me a decision or any follow up. Dan communicated often on the progress of my evaluation, he answered my questions in a timely fashion. He spoke with my financial planner, and as my health records indicated after review -- my policy would not fit OVID's buy profile, Dan went carefully over the results with me today. I am very pleased I would highly recommend OVID and Dan Winegrad.

Thorough and Professional
Even though they could not help me convert my policy, they went the distance to thoroughly examine the pathways to what might be possible. Very professional, kind, and considerate.

I have a story to tell
I have a story to tell - My name is Richard Neville and I am a CPA and my wife and I live 6 months in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and during the Winter we live in Sarasota County, Florida, in a gated community, where we play golf 3 times a week. I am 77 years old.
Since the age of 22, when I received my CA ( Now a CPA ), I have been paying for a $250,000 term life insurance policy with Manulife Insurance. Until the age of 55, the premium was very reasonable. Now it is approximately $1,000.00 per month. That is ridiculous and what is clear is that Manulife just wants me to drop the policy ASAP. SO......I wanted to sell my life term policy and convert it to cash.
Therefore, I called Ovid Life Insurance and was put in contact with Darren May. I have now spoken to Darren a couple of times. He has been more than helpful in explaining exactly what " Selling One's Life Insurance " means and what are the steps to go about it. That being said, Darren has informed ,e that after a little bit of research, unfortunately. Ovid Insurance cannot do business in Ontario, Canada.
I just wanted to say that although that information is not what I was expecting to hear, I do want to " Thank " Darren for ALL the great advice/knowledge he shared with me. THANK YOU VERY MUCH DARREN. To his management team.....in my opinion, he is an asset to be retained within your ranks.

Don’t waste your time with these…
Don’t waste your time with these people. All dealing with them did was cost me an additional $267 premium when I would have been letting it lapse. They should have been able to tell they were not going to make an offer within a week instead of taking over a month; Especially since they had dealt with my insurance company before. Save yourself the hassle and just move on.
