It didn't really benefit myself in anyway. Just like insurance, private pensions, warranties and guarantees aren't worth a thing when you want to claim. It's a corrupt system of taking people's money... See more

Read and understand the terms and conditions of the Policy!…

Having been a member for many years without needing to utilise the services of the cover provided by PG Mutual it wasn't until 2023 that I realised the limitations of the scheme. Running a small sole trader professional consultancy business it wasn't until I very much needed the income protection due to a stress related illness that I was pointed toward the terms and conditions of the policy which excludes stress related illness. Whilst it is fully accepted that the policy terms and conditions exempt this illness I made the point to PG Mutual that their insurance scheme would appear to be geared towards small professional businesses and I offered the opinion that stress and mental illnesses would be one of the most likely reasons for not being fit to work. It would seem to be the case that the policy is set up with a mindset that mental illness is not a reason to be unfit to work.
I therefore cancelled my policy after nearly 9 years of membership. I would urge anyone else considering taking the insurance policy to ignore the marketing and understand the small print in terms and conditions before using this scheme.

We are sorry to read of your disappointment.

Unfortunately, mental health cover was not available at the time you bought your policy from us. This is why your last claim to us was not eligible for payment.

We are pleased that the previous claim you made to us was covered by your policy, and you were paid for it.

We can also confirm that 95% of all the claims made by our members in 2023 were covered and were paid.

We hope you will reconsider PG Mutual in the future.

My income protection application was declined. Fair enough. They took ages and ignored several requested for an update though. During this time I may well have found am alternative. Consider an alternative before you apply.
