- “The iExtend offer uniquely enables some death insurance cover to be retained for years longer than would otherwise be affordable. If you’re planning to cancel or to reduce your term life cover over time as premiums become unaffordable I’d certainly recommend you have a chat with the people at iExtend.”

- “It makes sense that an option exists to realise value from their life insurance when it is no longer needed or affordable.”

- “The iExtend offering presents a meaningful extra choice and is wildly innovative. It makes sense that an option exists to realise value from their life insurance when it is no longer needed or affordable.”

- “iExtend has been a revelation for our business in providing clients a unique alternative option to cancelling their valuable Life Cover. iExtend processes are efficient, executed promptly and always client focused.”

- “iExtend is basically an extension of your Life Insurance policy when you’re at the crossroads of renewing and can’t afford it. If you ask yourself, ‘Should I just cancel my Life policy that I have contributed to for years with no return?’, the answer should be clear. If anybody is thinking of cancelling their Life policy, they should be talking to an adviser to extend their policy through iExtend.”
Kelvin F
- Adviser, QLD
- “The iExtend offer is an option for clients that have paid life insurance premiums for years but cannot afford to maintain it when they would potentially be set to receive a return. Whilst clients understand that life insurance is a risk mitigator for when their commitments (debt and dependents) are at their peak, they still have an emotional tie to their cover. iExtend offers them an affordable exit from this grasp, presenting a great option for Advisers in assisting their clients, also meeting their “best interests”.”
Greg S
- Adviser, QLD
- “Many thanks to the team at iExtend, in particular Kos and Peter, for assisting our client with the continuation of their insurance. We had a difficult case with many complexities, however Kos and the team never gave up putting forward many options in an effort to complete the task at hand. Dedication, determination and client care were at the forefront at all times. Thank you again for all of your assistance!”
