ReviewTerminal Summary

Globe Life receives polarized feedback (3.5/5 average) with excellent individual customer service interactions undermined by systemic issues in billing, account management, payment processing, and aggressive sales tactics.

What customers love

  • Individual customer service representatives are frequently professional, patient, and helpful
  • Claims processing and policy payouts are handled smoothly and with compassion
  • Long-term customers appreciate loyalty and find live agent support accessible

Common concerns

  • Recurring billing errors, payment misapplication, and account payment redirection causing policies to lapse despite timely payments
  • Aggressive and persistent phone call and mail harassment, with customers ignored when requesting contact cessation
  • Account security vulnerabilities including unauthorized policy ownership changes and hacking incidents; poor investigation response
  • Website and online portal functionality failures preventing account access and login issues unresolved by customer service
  • Deceptive sales practices including misrepresentation of policy types (term vs. whole life) and failure to disclose automatic rate increases
  • Unreliable auto-pay system that frequently rejects legitimate payments and refuses enrollment despite repeated customer requests

MY ACCOUNT LIFE INSURANCE ACCOUNT WAS STOLEN!

MY LIFE INSURANCE ACCOUNT WAS STOLEN AND I HAVE PROOF THAT I WAS THE OWNER OF THE POLICY. GLOBE LIFE ALLOWED SOMEONE TO FORGE MY SIGNATURE TO CHANGE OWNERSHIP OF MY POLICY. WHEN ASKED THEM 1 MONTH AGO TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE, THEY ARE STILL GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND! I AM REPORTING EVERYTHING TO THE NICB AND STATE INSURANCE DEPARTMENT AND ALSO SPEAKING WITH A LAWYER TO SUE THEM....DON'T GET INSURANCE WITH GLOBE !!!

I have had 6 policies with Globe Life…

I have had 6 policies with Globe Life since 2018. In February 2025, I took out small policy loans during a financial hardship. The process to receive the loans was extremely difficult, delayed, and one request was even canceled after submission. I was clearly told loan repayments would need to be made separately from my regular premium payments. However, after months of continuing to pay my premiums through my bank, Globe Life began applying portions of my premium payments toward loan balances instead of properly crediting my policies. I consistently paid my premiums, often doubling or sending extra payments if needed to keep my policies active. Between 2025 and 2026, I paid well above the required amounts. Then in April 2026, I was informed that one of my policies had supposedly become inactive back in December 2025 — despite my continued payments. After reviewing my bank records and Globe Life’s payment history, I discovered payments were still being redirected toward loans even while a policy was inactive in their system. I have since disputed the issue formally and requested a full audit and correction of my accounts. My advice to anyone with Globe Life policies: monitor your payment history VERY closely, especially if you take out policy loans. Keep detailed records of every payment and every conversation..

On line portal

Thought I was going to be able to log in to my policy to check when it was due next; I could not log in due to Globe life claiming my log in info didn't match their records. I called the company explained my situation and had thought that my credentials were reset by the representative, (she told me it was all reset and that I should be able to get back in using their portal) but when I went to log in again, I was still unable to. Very disappointing and frustrating. I'll just have to wait for my next bill to come in the mail to make payment by money order.
