I have tried numerous times to cancel my policy. I have contracted them through their online contact us to get the forms needed to cancel their policy. The forms are NOT available online to fill out and send in. They will NOT send them by electronic communication (email) when asking for them through electronic communication (email). Instead they want you to call and speak to a person to have them send an email. They will NOT mail the form, well they said they sent it out, but I have never received it. They just charged my bank account again, and I want the charge for this month refunded and the policy cancelled once and for all. I am tired of reaching out and being ignored and dealing with this company.Business response

I am rejecting this response because:
I have reached out MULTIPLE TIMES to the business and they WILL NOT RESPOND. I am beyond frustrated and tired of dealing with these people. I just want the policy cancelled and the payment that was just taken out refunded. It should not be this difficult to cancel a policy.Initial Complaint

Securian Financial are deliberately ignoring disability information requested by closing claims when asking for additional information and not providing time for the email forms to be received. My neurologists confirmed that I am unable to engage in work due to progressive Multiple Sclerosis, the Claims Examiner who has been dealing with my case, ignored what the neurologist stated on the form, claiming that he needed to refilled when I spoke to her today. I requested the form again and asked to speak to her manager as she accused me of not having a real disability and I could work elsewhere when my disability is progressive and I am unable to as verified by my neurologist. I have multiple Sclerosis and my neurologist indicated that I have increasing disability ailments. The representatives stated that the neurologist did not fill areas related to cardiology when he would not as he is not a cardiologist. I also confirmed that I have not been working since March 4 as a result of my progressive disability condition which causes me not to be able to work. Instead of allowing me to receive the new form to provide to my neurologist so that he could provide more information, they claimed to be emailing me the form but closed the case anyway and made their decision before receiving the information that earlier said was necessary thereby deliberately ignoring the information which they knew could be verified. This was unethical and completely unprofessional as my disability means I am unable to work and they are ensuring that my application for disability relief from ****** *** is hindered because Client Examiner ******* and her manager **** was being deliberately obstructive when they were aware that my disability is legitimate and I am unable to work as confirmed by my neurologistBusiness response

I am rejecting this response because:
By contacting BBB, I am given the BBB my express permission to intervene and contact Securian Financial due to the unethical practices which Securian Financial have engaged in by requesting medical information from me, not waiting for me to receive their written request so that my specialist could provide more information and for ignoring the information which they have previously been provided with by my specialist ( neurologist) . Instead Securian Financial have rejected the information because they have said that my neurologist did not comment about queries they had regarding cardiological issues. A neurologist who specializes in multiple sclerosis and focuses on issues of the brain and nervous system which has caused my disability condition, does not verify issues of the heart ( cardiology). He has already confirmed that my ** permanent, progressive and it is a disabling condition which I have. Despite this, Securian financial have ignored this. When I spoke to Securian Financial representatives, they became belligerent, hostile and then maliciously closed out my case without receiving any updated forms which they claimed were necessary to make a decision as I had not yet received them to give to my doctor. The unethical actions of Securian Financial highlights that due process is not being followed and they are deliberately misleading their client ****** *** who has asked them to obtain details from me. Despite this, by not allowing me the opportunity to provide more information and closing out my case before I even received the request via mail so that my neurologist could provide more details the information they requested, representatives were both deliberately misrepresenting what they know is inaccurate by closing my pending case before receiving further information. I would like senior management intervention as it is clearly unethical to operate in such a fashionInitial Complaint

On 5/1/2011, I began accidental death and dismemberment insurance coverage with Hartford insurance. On 11/1/2018, this policy was taken over by Minnesota Life. On 2/28/24, I contacted Minnesota Life and cancelled this policy. I was informed at this time I was not *********** any refund of paid premiums because it was not a whole life policy. My wife cancelled her accidental death policy wit6h another company, and we received a full refund of paid premiums. I do not find it fair this company can just keep all that was paid with no refund. There were never any claims filed against this policy.Business response

I've tried to contact this business twice to cancel my accidental death and dismemberment insurance policy. The company only sent me one notice when I signed up for the policy and since then I've heard nothing from them. I'm unable to find that notice with my policy number and other information and I need their help to cancel my account before they automatically debit my credit union account again, but I've been unable to talk to anyone there. They refuse to get back to me.Business response

Wife died 10/10/23 from a fall, All paperwork was sent in. When you buy a "Accidental policy" you expect for the insurance company to pay the policy. When the company can only give you their condolence, it makes you feel as if you've been robbed by the insurance company.Business response

I am rejecting this response because: it is not a response. If you die after a fall and then the insurance company says that you died from natural causes? If you're in a crash and die after the trauma is the same as if you roll off a bed. An accident is still an accident.Business response
