If it is beyond the 1st two years, nothing short of dying while commiting a felony. They will deny the claim if the insured did not die! They will deny the claim until satisfactory proof of death. IS the policy over two years old? 4lifeguild.com

How long does it take to receive payment on life insurance policy?

In most states, the insurance carriers have 30 days to investigate, aprove and/or deny the claim. Then, an additional 60 days to pay the claim. Some stick to this rule, some don't. Keep in mind, they may or will tell you that they need more time or that the claim is been processed. Contact the insurance adjuster and talk to him/her and ask for an update on the claim. If that doesn't help, send them a 10 day certified letter and after that contact your state's departmnet of insurance and file a complaint.

Can an insurance company deny a finance company payoff on a vehicle that has been total by a driver that is not on the insurance policy?

Accident involving a driver not coveredYes! there are certain occasions when an insurer can deny coverage. Especially when the accident involved a driver who was not covered under the terms of the policy. All regular and occasional drivers are required to be listed on your policy. All vehicle owners are required to be dosclosed. Concealment of vehicle owners or permitted drivers on an auto policy is the most common form of Auto Insurance fraud. If the company can determine it, They can deny any and all claims based on the fraudulently obtained policy.AnswerThe answer to your question comes in two separate parts. First, it's important to understand that in general, anybody whom you have given permission to drive a car on your policy is covered by your insurance. This is regardless of their relationship to you and regardless of whether or not they live in your household.With that said, you must also understand that nearly every auto insurance policy covers losses on an actual cash value basis. This means that there is a deduction for depreciation and/or use of the car...e.g. - The older a car is the less it is worth. (Unfortunately, even a brand-new car is never quite worth what somebody has paid a dealership for it. This often results in being "upside down" on your car note because you owe more than what it's worth.)The bottom line is that when a person is upside down on their car note, if the car gets totalled in an accident, the insurance company only has to pay what the car is worth, not what you owe somebody for the car.

Can you finance a car but not be the insurance holder?

In terms of the lender, probably not. If the car is financed, the buyer/owner has the contract with the creditor. The creditor requires collision and comprehensive coverage for THEIR vehicle which they finance. They do NOT have any relationship with any other person but the person named on the vehicle loan. An insurance policy is only issued when the 'policyholder' has a financial interest in the item for which they are requesting insurance. If you apply for an auto policy to cover the newly purchased vehicle, the insurance carrier will likely deny coverage. If you do not own the car, chances are you do not garage the car at your address of record. This is sometimes acceptable, such as when a child goes off to college, with an insured auto. However, if you simply lend your vehicle to 'John Smith' with no specified ending time/date, this is more than occasional use and the carrier would likely deny any claim arising out of an accident John Smith may have. Additionally, the terms of an insurance policy are accepted by the buyer of the insurance, by signing and dating the policy application and likely another document upon issuance of a policy. If you have no financial interest in the insured item (a car in this case) you have no insurable interest.
