Easy to purchase and quick! I got over 200 thousand dollars of coverage for a low price

Wanted to transfer 5% of my Americo annuity to my brokerage firm. BUT Americo wanted additional paperwork - using THEIR system - instead of my brokerage transfer request. Never had this issue with other companies. I told my broker to cancel the request. My wife and I have 3 Americo MYGAs, but we Will NEVER buy another MYGA with Americo. read more

My brother passed away in 2021, He had 2 policies with this company. One for 30k and an accidental one for 250k. he was involved in an accident in witch he had to be hospitalized. During his hospitalization he contracted covid while in the hospital. Then he passed away. This company refuses to pay on the 2 policies. Instead there offer was to pay back the premiums that my brother paid in over the years. I am In the process of working with the State Insurance Commissioner to collect the full amounts due plus interest from the date of death. Been told by many insurance people that this company is the worst to deal with. They don't even deserve the 1 star I had to put up in order to post the review. read more

I canceled my life insurance with Americo but they charged me for 3 more months. I called; they said I didn't cancel. Do NOT deal with this company of thieves! read more

The customer service I received and the policies that govern this company are absolutely not client-friendly. As an established client, I contacted Americo to request a simple reduction in my life insurance coverage. I was told it would take a minimum of 20 business days, nearly a full calendar month, just to receive a response. That is an absurd amount of time for such a straightforward request. I was told requests are handled on a first come, first served basis. Does Americo only have one or two people capable of processing something this basic? I have no doubt that if I were calling to start a new policy, I'd have an answer within days. I asked to escalate the matter to a supervisor or retention department and was told it wouldn't matter because 20 business days hadn't passed. When I said I would cancel my policy, the representative showed zero concern. She simply read the cancellation policy, asked if I agreed, and processed it, no attempt to retain a long-time client, no questions, no accountability. Bottom line: nearly 30 days for a simple policy adjustment is unacceptable, and Americo clearly has no issue losing existing clients. That alone says a lot about how this company operates read more

We got our burial policies about 5 years ago. My husband just passed 3 month ago. Funeral home filed the claim, no issues there, and I received the remaining money back with a check. No problem or issues there either. Yes, would definitely recommend this company. read more

I opened an annuity account with Americo in October of 2018 with my life savings of $11,000. As of November 9th, 2024, my account is worth $10,862.57. Americo has charged me thousands of dollars in fees to manage my account. They literally charge me money to lose me money. They refused to let me have money unless I paid a surrounding fee of $800. This company is the definition of legalized scamming and hope my story can save others read more

My wife has been in the process of moving two accounts from Americo, to another company since 8/25. We have completed everything that's been requested, but here we are on1/20/2026. This company is a joke, and we're considering hiring an attorney. read more

we had a return of rider premium policy, we canceled it when the 20 years was up. I called to see if they received all the information they needed to get our money back and they refused to answer the question. I called several times to try to talk to someone, the first time I was caller number 115! Horrible customer service. the only thing I can do is wait up to 60 days to see if we get our rider premium back. read more

This is easily one of the worst companies I have done business with and I would recommend no one purchase an annuity from Americo. Probably a bad decision to purchase an annuity from any company, given all the commissions paid directly or indirectly, but Americo's terrible. As I've read in other reviews, customer service is terrible. Financial statements don't give full information. Interest rates on fixed annuities are misleading as, given the way the fixed interest is calculated, it's almost impossible to get the full interest rate promised. And then to cap it off, trying to withdraw funds is painfully slow - I was just told - after a few days of back and forth over forms - that it would take up to 20 business days - almost a full calendar month!? This institution is still living in the dark ages. read more

Did not enjoy trying to accomplish necessary things with my account. Staff were not helpful.

They had my contract for 3 years and when I requested my money, they kept telling me it would be 10 days before they could send it. The last time I called they said it would take 15 days and the customer service rep was totally unhelpful. She just basically said i was wrong and that it was always 15 days. DON'T give them your money. You will have a hard time getting it back. read more

HUGE SCAM, STAY AWAY!! I purchased a costly life insurance policy after a convincing broker sold me on it. After 3 1/2 years of payments I researched the company and found many negative reviews -- most positive reviews appeared to be from new customers. I tried for three weeks to speak with a live representative to discuss my concerns. I received only automated responses and emails directing me to surrender the policy, which would cost me over $10,000. No one ever took the time to explain or address the poor reviews or my questions. The lack of transparency and human support destroyed my trust -- I would rather accept the large loss than continue paying them for another decade. Do not buy from this company, no matter how polished the sales pitch looks. read more

Not only was I unknowingly charged for two years by this company, but when I realized they were charging me for life insurance despite the fact that I've had life insurance with another company for 10 years, I immediately called to cancel. it took me a half an hour just to cancel only to receive a bill from them a week later that my policy had gone up by $50 and was being charged! what a joke. contacting BBB because this company should be shut down for theft. read more

Questionable business tactics, especially to the elders did not tell what company they were from up front.

I would leave a zero if possible but I want others to be aware and not be scammed like I was. First time home buyer and they present misinformation in order to lock you in a policy. They do not adequately listen to the customer and provide service that they need. I let the representative that kept calling me know that I already had life insurance and he informed me this was mortgage insurance. As a new homeowner, you want to secure your investment, this is not the way to do it. Please be aware of this company. read more

Emails- they will respond weeks and weeks later Calls- nobody picks up any calls, took us several weeks of trying during business hours to reach someone. Agents- everyone has a quota and these guys will do anything just to meet quota. Even if it's not ethical. Overall, be careful what you sign up for. read more

I ask for a quote and I received a policy that I never agreed on muchless know the amount of my payment or policy amount . Trevonte the insurance representative lied about they will call Me for a medical exam. I never received a medical exam but yet I am getting letter that approve payment due 4/14/25 and they can't not cancel because of my address listed. I am excited to contact legal firm about America / Fidelity / National Farmers Great Southwest Iife insurance.... Fraud Alert!!!!! read more

Scam. My daughter worked here a couple weeks. Company buys leads. Entire structure is based on deceit..sales people brag about lying to get sales ON VETRANS..she made a big sale without their lying script...a week later theclient was stolen and she lost the sale. Corruption read more

I have tried numerous times to contact Customer service as I was lead to believe that I had mortgage protection. I finally had to stop payment with my bank. read more

Absolutely disgusting customer service. They do not help, only to be read from a script on repeat. I might as well talk to a wall. The representatives are incompetent, not well trained, and always want you pay for any copies of documents (because they have a disorganized system). I would NEVER use this company for your families life planning. It received 1 star because it wouldn't allow me to leave zero. And by the look of these reviews, you can see a pattern (other than the 5 star review they asked their friend to write for them) read more

This company are liars and scam artist they take your money and when I find something better within the time frame they refuse to refund your money and they are supposed to if you cancel within their time frame they lie and tell you 15 days which turns into a month and still they refused to issue the refund I do not recommend this fraudulent company filled with liars read more

Kelsey, who responded to my request was friendly and put me at ease so I purchased a mortgage protection policy. I requested that withdrawals not start until July, but the company immediately withdrew the monthly amount. I shrugged it off. After 3 months, I never received a policy or follow-up about the details of the policy. I was unable to reach anyone at SFG or Americo. So I called my bank and told them what happened....I had basically been "scammed". I completed some documents and the withdrawals are being cancelled and refunded. Lesson learned! Don't ever buy off social media! read more

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. Here's why. I put 2 clients in the Growth Commander annuity and placed them in the S&P IQ Index. Regardless of the explanation how this index is managed, ANYONE would Assume it is based upon the S&P Index (It's in the title), right? WRONG? In one contract the client should have been credited with approximately 12% since that is what the S&P went up over the first year. THEY CREDIT HER WITH .05%. Another client should have received about 16%, THEY WERE CREDITED WITH LESS THAN ONE. When I approached Americo about this I just got disclaimers about how it was not the "original" S&P so the returns don't compare. WHY HAVE THE S&P name in it if it doesn't REMOTELY reflect the S&P. THAT'S OUTRIGHT DECEIT!! Additionally, every company has 30 days to reallocate at the anniversary, BUT NOT AMERICO. They only give 14 days so now I can't even reallocate away from this disaster. This is a rip off, money grab, and just downright wrong. AVOID THIS COMPANY!!! read more

I'm so disappointed with this company! When I signed up with his company, I was on the phone for 2 1/2 hours with the agent. I stated that I wanted to get a Roth IRA account. Come to find out the agent, signed me up for life insurance, and annuity. Where most of the money is going to the life insurance. Which I am not interested in getting additional life insurance. Talk to the agent numerous times, and also called the company numerous times. Trying to cancel the life insurance part of it had the company mail out the forms and they mailed out the wrong forms. Instead, they mail me forms to change my beneficiary. I just want the situation fix. So no I would never recommend this company to anyone. Virginia Golding-Lockhart read more

Do not trust Americo life insurance. I bought life insurance for my dad for 18 years paid. My dad passed away on December 23, 2024 . Called several times, claimed, sent death certificate. Americo life insurance still takes monthly in my account after I claimed and Called. I still not received the check. Waiting for few more days ,sue them if not received the check. read more

Worse Insurance company I have ever encountered, my husband died January 4Th, Today is February 28th and I have still not received my check! I've called multiple times to just get the run around!!! I definitely DO NOT recommend this Company!! read more

I want to cancel my policy NOW. Don't ask me for my policy number, because I've asked and never received any paperwork. I don't even know what I'm actually covered for, because I have not seen anything in writing. So, if this is the way you do business, I don't want any part of it. It is my fault for taking so long to get to this point. You don't have any problem taking my money, but I can't get a copy of my policy. read more

DO NOT purchase anything from this company. Americo has the worst customer service or lack of it that I have ever experienced. Here are a few examples, if you would like a copy of your policy emailed to you (it is not available on the online portal as they advertise), they want to charge you $50 for it. Trying to reach someone on the phone is next to impossible. At the present time I am trying to cancel my policy, which again is proving to be next to impossible as well, they have automatically withdrawn the payment even after all the forms have been submitted weeks ago for the cancellation. AND NOW I have gotten a response telling me to do ALL the things I have already done MULTIPLE TIMES. GEE THANKS FOR YOUR HELP. They did respond to my bad review quickly so someone does work there evidently, although they did nothing to resolve my issue, it is the closet to "customer service" I have had yet from this company. read more

Having life insurance with this company is a mistake. I have been with them for 2 years. They take the monthly payment out of my account, but I have never been able to speak to the supposed agent. No answers, no calls, no emails, no contact. I want to cancel the policy and since no one answers my question, I cut off the automatic payment even though I will lose what they have already collected. read more

Not happy at all with this company. Called on July 2, 2024 to apply for a loan against my policy. It was to be an EFT and was told it would take 3 to 5 days. Well here it is July 15 and when I called today (my fourth phone call since the second) I am told it will take at least 20 days. They are never late in taking out my EFT for my premium though. Bunch of BS. read more

Initially was lied to regarding my policy. (Said it was a "Selfish" policy- it was Not) I cannot reach them at all by phone. EVERY time I call, it makes me validate my account, then tells me "We're sorry, but the office is closed due to a team meeting" uh huhh...EVERY Time I call??? Avoid at all costs!!! read more

I bought life insurance for my mother through an agent for americo. This by far the worst insurance I ever experience. The agent charge me all kind of fees and added on extra payout for accidental death, which I never sign up for. I try to dispute it with the company, they told me I had to deal with the agent that sold me the policy. Stay away from this company. There are better insurance company out there with better rates and service. read more
