R.W. – I am so tired of hearing the misleading three P’s from Colonial Penn’s TV add. Please explain how the first “P”, a price you can afford differs from the third “P”, a price that fits your budget. That is just two ways of describing the exact same thing. Another misleading issue is like most sales messages, what are they NOT TELLING YOU? The amount of insurance someone 50 years old for $9.95 per month is less that someone that is 80 years old on medications. (Read the review here)

Amanda W. – My grandmother passed away in Oct 2021…she had 2 life insurance policies with Colonial Penn. We just NOW received the checks for those policies.. today…7 months later. It was absolutely the most Horrible experience EVER dealing with these people. I had to send them copies of the statement before they would reimburse…and still would not reimburse until the final checks were written in which they added the premiums to the checks. Want to avoid a lot of heartache and pain? Do not…I repeat Do NOT purchase insurance through Colonial Penn. (Read the review here)

Carol P. – My Aunt will be dead a year in May. We still wait on hold. We still fax the same papers. We still are on hold for long periods of time. We still get disconnect. We still can’t understand what people are saying due to hiring people from God knows where who cannot speak English. Considering all the reviews I have read about Colonial Penn, I believe this is a professional scam. How may of these do the BBB need to read to do something about it. Anyone know Tom Selic’s phone number…He has to know about this…Shame on Him. Come on BBB , I think you have all the information you need…do something about it. (Read the review here)
