I've posted many times that Amerilife will indeed release independent agents. This was based upon my conversations with Frank Stastny (who promised to release) and his upline who repeated that promise. What I didn't know is that the release can take forever.
Case in point is a friend of mine. He had not written with MoO for about 9 months but because he would be soliciting in another state it would be necessary to have them available. His contracts for other carriers are through another FMO and wanted this as well. (He gets marketing help, etc.)
It has now been 7 weeks and no release. According to Frank's upline, "I never said it would be overnight." There is a difference between overnight and 7 weeks.
He made an excuse that it sat on one persons desk for 3 weeks and then the one person that handles this was out for a while. Bulls*t and not acceptable.
"It's imposed by the carriers." Another bullsh*t statement since if the marketer simply releases, there is nothing that is imposed.
So I have now changed my tune and no longer assume that Amerilife is as honest as Frank has once alleged.
There are a couple of former captive Amerilife agents that will feel obligated to post on this thread so have at it. I'm warning independent agents to avoid Amerilife if at all possible.
You may be released, but it might take longer than just waiting out your 6-12 months.
