    I was awarded a life insurance policy-financial product in a will, my father passed away and Assurian will not pay out the claim. I have filed for it three times and they are "denying" my claim. They have my name, address, social, and death certificate. It's all they need. I have filed for several months and they are always whining about THEIR claim number that is already on the form. They are just refusing to pay it out without a valid reason. I dont know if this company is reputable or not but I would not recommend them. I want my money. It's not theirs and they wont give it to me.. Deny and ***** is still alive and well in the *********** area. Do they even read the news? I am disabled from a stroke and they seem to be having a blast hanging up on me and not paying the claim. I WANT MY MONEY. Does that state have an insurance commissioner that can help me get my money back from these thieves? Everyone else got their money in two weeks. They are having too much fun harassing the disabled guy. I am on social security disability and a NY disability pension. They are just having too much fun, and someone needs to step in. They just keep telling me to fill out forms so they can reject them for silly reason so they can keep my money. This has been ongoing since the Summer. They refuse to tell me what they need. I dont know what they want. They wont give me my money. There is only one goal her. Get what's mine. They wait six weeks and then tell you there is a problem. They are real scum. My scanner is broke, I will try to get you the patently ridiculous FORM letters of denial which incluse the stupid claim number they are so **** retentive about. They cant write? This is very wrong and financial harrassment of a disabled citizen.

    I had optional life insurance through a group policy from my retirement account. I set it up to autopay. This has been working fine for almost 3 years. I received a cancelation letter for nonpayment. Calling customer service, and they said I had never been set for autopay. The people were ignorant of the system and insinuated that I was lying. I asked for a manager to call me, and no one did. When I went to log onto my account, the system said my account did not exist. These people should be shut down and fined.

    I have tried numerous times to cancel my policy. I have contracted them through their online contact us to get the forms needed to cancel their policy. The forms are NOT available online to fill out and send in. They will NOT send them by electronic communication (email) when asking for them through electronic communication (email). Instead they want you to call and speak to a person to have them send an email. They will NOT mail the form, well they said they sent it out, but I have never received it. They just charged my bank account again, and I want the charge for this month refunded and the policy cancelled once and for all. I am tired of reaching out and being ignored and dealing with this company.

    Securian Financial are deliberately ignoring disability information requested by closing claims when asking for additional information and not providing time for the email forms to be received. My neurologists confirmed that I am unable to engage in work due to progressive Multiple Sclerosis, the Claims Examiner who has been dealing with my case, ignored what the neurologist stated on the form, claiming that he needed to refilled when I spoke to her today. I requested the form again and asked to speak to her manager as she accused me of not having a real disability and I could work elsewhere when my disability is progressive and I am unable to as verified by my neurologist. I have multiple Sclerosis and my neurologist indicated that I have increasing disability ailments. The representatives stated that the neurologist did not fill areas related to cardiology when he would not as he is not a cardiologist. I also confirmed that I have not been working since March 4 as a result of my progressive disability condition which causes me not to be able to work. Instead of allowing me to receive the new form to provide to my neurologist so that he could provide more information, they claimed to be emailing me the form but closed the case anyway and made their decision before receiving the information that earlier said was necessary thereby deliberately ignoring the information which they knew could be verified. This was unethical and completely unprofessional as my disability means I am unable to work and they are ensuring that my application for disability relief from ****** *** is hindered because Client Examiner ******* and her manager **** was being deliberately obstructive when they were aware that my disability is legitimate and I am unable to work as confirmed by my neurologist

     I am rejecting this response because:

    By contacting BBB, I am given  the BBB  my express permission to intervene and contact Securian Financial due to the unethical practices which Securian Financial have engaged in by requesting medical information from me, not waiting for me to receive their written request  so that my specialist could provide more information and for ignoring the information which they have previously been provided with  by my specialist ( neurologist) . Instead Securian Financial have rejected the information because they have said that my neurologist did not comment about queries they had regarding cardiological issues. A neurologist who specializes in multiple sclerosis and  focuses on issues of the brain and nervous system which has caused my disability condition, does not  verify issues of the heart ( cardiology). He has already confirmed that my ** permanent, progressive and it is a disabling condition which I have. Despite this, Securian financial have ignored this. When I spoke to Securian Financial representatives, they became belligerent, hostile and then maliciously closed out my case  without receiving any updated forms which they claimed were necessary to make a decision as I had not yet received them to give to my doctor. The unethical actions of Securian Financial highlights that due process is not being followed  and they are deliberately misleading their client  ****** *** who has asked them to obtain details from me. Despite this, by not allowing me the opportunity to provide more information and closing out my case before I even received the request via mail so that my neurologist could provide more details the information they requested, representatives were both deliberately misrepresenting what they know is inaccurate by closing my pending case before receiving further information. I would like senior management intervention as it is clearly unethical to operate in such a fashion
