Foresters by Telephone?

[rousemark]

Caleld on a lead today that another agent beat me to it. The aldy said she bought Forsters by Telephone. Didn't know they did phone apps??

Alabama
Arkansas

Georgia
Kansas
Kentucky
Louisiana
Maryland
Mississippi
Missouri
Nebraska
North Carolina
Ohio
Oklahoma
South Carolina
Tennessee
Texas

Your IMO has to be approved first to use the Foresters Voice Signature.

I was told they also do them in Indiana

Any rumours on when they may add some more states?

Not sure on Indiana, just pulled the list off of their site but maybe it's not up to date.

 

[TexasAgent]

Indiana is not available right now.

once you do one, you will never do it again. The entire process takes about 45 min. because of all the additional disclosures. I did one the other day that got declined at the end of the 45 min bs interview process. Why they don't get the voice signature for the MIB and rx check, and decline them BEFORE all the other nonsense is something I'll never understand. The underwriting decision is at the very end.

Ridiculous!

The Forethought process is pretty slick but their UW is a mess right now, got a meds list about 4 pages long it seems like. Drives me nuts that you can't really get one good carrier and process all together in one package.

Thanks for the info on Foresters.. I just contracted with Equitable L&C.. They seem to have a good sell by Phone system in place but they don't compete with Foresters rates.. Does appear they will accept some for immediate coverage that Foresters would not accept.
