Would the answer have been different if I used the term kickback, finders fee, bribe . . .?
Carriers can do all kinds of things agents cant, especially with PDP and MA plans. Same can be said for dot guv. They took a Medigap client away a few yrs ago when applying for a PDP. Turned him into an MA client for someone other than me. Didn't find out until the following year when he had a question about his "new" supplement plan.
I know the carriers love to take as much away from brokers as possible and treat any call in as a new house account. Had that happen before with the two carriers Scott mentioned and another who is "Glad I met ya". Lost commissions that were never paid and clients that disappeared into thin air.
Gotta love this business.
