Not in every instance. Most states have laws that will prevent a utility from cutting off service under specific guidelines. One being the source of heat cannot be denied during winter/cold weather. Utility companies have programs mandated by federal and state laws to assist customers in repaying their defaulted accounts.

Can a life insurance company deny term life death benefit if premium was in default and benficiary was not notified?

To begin with, there is no obligation for an insurance company to notify a beneficiary of the status of the policy or any changes to it. A policy is a contract between the insurance company and the policyowner only. If the insured has died after the policy terminated due to nonpayment of premium, should an insurance company choose to do so, they may make some minor payment to the beneficiary, perhaps part of the premium paid. However, they are under no legal obligation to do so and most companies will not pay a death benefit on a terminated policy.
