We are in our 50’s and had a real challenge on our hand to get mortgage protection insurance as my wife had type 2 diabetes with a really high HbA1c reading and high blood pressure of 155/90 along with very high BMI of 36 and I had elevated cholesterol 7.1 and white coat syndrome for high blood pressure at 165/82 if I got my blood pressure checked at GP with a BMI of 32. John Hourigan at lion.ie was amazing to work with and gave us precise advice on how to approach the insurers for getting our mortgage protection in place. He took our blood reports and other Medical data and approached the underwriters in advance securing pre approvals which was amazing as we had got a lot of postponements due to our tough medical health .He then guided us through the PMA process whereby our GP had to fill out our medical reports. When John went on holidays Kathleen Sammon and Hannah McGowan provided amazing support and coverage. I was anxious , nervous & frustrated and would call and email multiple times asking questions and following up on status and was always responded to courteously and in a timely fashion. We have secured our mortgage protection which enabled us to buy our dream house. I am delighted we chose Lion.ie for our mortgage protection

Hi, we dealt with Richie Westman, he kept everything moving, even when the application got a bit complicated and we had a few distractions on our side. He was steady, responsive, and gave really clear advice around the right level of cover and the inheritance/CAT side of things. I’d have no hesitation recommending him, it was a huge relief getting it over the line for the mortgage.

I contacted lion.ie to deal with a mortgage protection application after seeing some positive feedback about the company online. Richard Westman dealt with me and he was extremely helpful, explaining everything and dealing with my complications very professionally. He was at all times courteous, informative and 100% accurate in all his communications and I’m extremely appreciative.

I had a very positive experience working with John at Lion.ie while arranging my mortgage protection insurance. As someone recovering from a recent stroke (less than a 2 years), I was especially grateful for John’s patience, understanding, and clear communication throughout the process. He explained everything step by step, answered all my questions, and made what could have been a stressful situation much easier to manage. John kept me well informed and ensured everything was completed on time for my property purchase. I’m very happy with the service provided and would confidently recommend John and Lion.ie to others.

I would highly recommend Lion.ie. Initially, Nick was very quick to respond to my queries and was very reassuring that he could get us cover despite our existing company not offering it to us. John then took on our case and got us the cover we needed for much less than I was expecting! He was always at the end of an email with a quick reply and he had us sorted with cover really quickly. I'm really grateful to the lads at Lion.ie for their work on our case and I would only use them in the future.

We had an excellent experience with Lion.ie. After previously being postponed for mortgage protection, we weren’t sure if getting cover was even possible. John guided us through the entire process, starting with an anonymous application to see how different providers might respond. Based on their feedback, he identified the insurer most likely to offer us cover. To our surprise, we were accepted at standard rates — something we genuinely didn’t think was possible. The communication and support from John and the Lion.ie team was outstanding from start to finish. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

I would highly recommend lion.ie! Richie was so helpful and responsive and without him the entire process of obtaining mortgage protection would have been much more difficult. Thanks Richie! :-)

John was excellent, responsive, and secured a deal costing ~30% of that which the bank provided for mortgage protection. No faulting it
