£100 M&S or Amazon voucher after 6 months of life insurance

Posted 7th Jan 2022
legalandgeneral.com/ins…ly/

This popped up on my Instagram feed.
6 monthly payments of minimum £6 to be made for a minimum total of £36 leaving a profit of £64. Not as good as the Halifax life insurance deal previously and not sure if you can apply both deals, but may be helpful for some who can bother with the effort.

    I guess it depends what they count as 'abuse'?

    You're probably right actually that if you keep it for a whole year you'd be fine. If you wanted a year's life insurance with these guys, that would be a win-win, but if you're only interested in the cashback (like I would be to be honest, having a long-running life insurance policy in place elsewhere), then you would suffer from diminishing returns. Profit would only be £28 if you keep the policy running for a year as opposed to 6 months. Which may or may not be worth the effort depending on your opinion.


    PS, I ended up paying for at least 2 or 3 months extra when I last took out this offer, as L&G were really slow issuing the vouchers, and required chasing. (edited)

    Wouldn't that constitute fraud?

    Forget the time, I don't think the data you give up is worth the profit.

    I did this successfully a while back. Easy money. It seems I would be eligible again, looking at the terms of not having cancelled within the last 18 months, but I would be wary that they would spot that I only had a policy for as long as it took the voucher to be issued, and that would it would come under this clause:

    "Legal & General reserves the right to cancel your Legal & General Life Insurance or Decreasing Life Insurance policy or your eligibility for an e-Gift card should we discover or have a reasonable suspicion that the terms and conditions of this offer are being abused."

    Having insurance cancelled by the provider can cause issues when taking out insurance further down the line. Don't think I'll risk it.

    If the fraud is discovered, then you will not get cover from that company again. Not worth the risk.

    for those that would like life insurance after.
    Even if you finished the full year the profit is £28 which isn't bad considering deals here for amazon are £6 for putting in £40-50.

    I got that email through and it lets you choose the gift.

    Signed up on 5th Feb and got to choose gift card today! A little confusing through (see image) - either claim before or after 4th August! They do have a helpline though "Any questions about your reward? Give us a call on 01565 656483"

    Yet here are we giving some of it away for free in exchange for fiery Great British and Northern Irish sales that may pique our interest!

    It's up to you if you can be bothered to wait 6 months for £64. Not much effort imo for free cash essentially.

    I bought two life insurance policies - one for myself and another for spouse. But received only one email of choosing the gift card.

    I've just emailed them too!

    I'm also chasing up AIG for another £100 Amazon gift card, did anyone here take out Life Insurance with them around the same time? (edited)
  29. sallan02's avatar
    I've just taken out this policy for £5 a month. Didn't see anywhere where it had to be minimum £6
    allsa001's avatar
    I did the same.
    I got an email this week, saying to select the free gift, but then have to wait the time scale to claim.
    So can confirm it looks like you can claim for £5 per month
  30. enclavemarine's avatar
    Just had a read through the terms can't see any minimum payment this time which seems strange
  31. sallan02's avatar
    Surely you can't do it again if you already have
