Some of our clients have said the following about Sean:
"Sean showed my that my life insurance cover in my super was only $150,000 which was almost than a third of my mortgage. I didn't want to leave debt to my husband to just live in our house as well as the burden of having to work and raise our kids if something happened to me. I knew I had cover in super and just assumed it would be enough. My salary continuance (Income Protection) in my super was only $850 per month payable after 90 days for 2 years and would not have even paid for food let alone a mortgage and medical expenses should something happen to me. As I was the main breadwinner for the household it made me feel sick especially thinking about how I could even get to the 90 day mark with no income. I'm so glad that I made the appointment with Sean to get things fixed up before I needed to claim, which unfortunately I did." Elissa Gold Coast.
"I was fed up with my dead end job & just wanted to quit but I had nothing to go to. When I saw Sean, he arranged my insurance so that if I did leave at some point in the future my insurance would continue on in to my next job without any hassles or time without cover. I am confident that I now have the cover I need without just the minimum in my industry super fund and any new employer can pay my super straight into my fund without having to lose insurance, change funds or even have multiple funds". John Tallai
‘Sean had arranged to come and do my insurances as I’d taken out a $1m loan to buy new equipment for my business and the valuation had reduced almost 100% if not used. Unfortunately for me, my business and my family, I was diagnosed with 3 Malignant Melanoma’s on my back. Should I have done my insurance when I had the chance, a claim would have been payable on the diagnosis that would have extinguished the business debt allowed me time with the family to recover. I am now uninsurable for almost all cover. I encourage everyone to not leave using Sean’s services until it’s too late!’ Adrian B-Sydney
