“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”

“I came to lion not really sure what I was looking for. I heard of Life Insurance, Life Assurance, Illness Cover and Income protection and was confused by it all. I just knew I wanted to protect my family in case the worse happened. After seeing recommedantions from people on Reddit, specifially mentioning that lion.ie specialize in pre-existing conditions, I reached out via form. In the meantime I read the blog and it's such a fantastic resource! Insurance can be complicated, so explaining things in a way that's so easy to understand is a true skill. I know many brokers across other insurance industries would be jumping at the chance to recommend every single product, even if you don't need them. Nick was great where he only recommmend what you truly needed, nothing more, nothing less. This has a much better outcome since trust goes much further than greed. Once we settled on the best options, Nick transferred me over to Richie, who was exceptional during the entire process as we had lots of back and fourth to make sure all the t's were crossed. Richie was very professional and kept me up to date throughout the process. He was very approachable with any further clarifications and questions I had, which I know I am a bit pedantic about :-) I can truly say that I can without a doubt recommend lion.ie to any friends and family looking to be be treated with respect and ultimitaly gain the protection they need. I know I feel a thousand times more comfortable knowing that we have life insurance. Disclaimer: This was written in my own words and AI was not used.”

“Excellent experience with Nick and John for mortgage protection. As myself and my partner aren't married, the advice we received on how to approach getting mortgage protection was invaluable. I was also worried about an exisitng medical condition I have that could cause an issue but John got the policy sorted for us really quickly with no fuss and for far less money each month than I expected. I would definitely recommend Lion.”

“Veery helpful and proactive service. Lion were able to gather a list of insurers which could support us despite our medical conditions. John at Lion helped advise us on the difference between the companies out there. Before going to Lion, we were unsure if we would get cover and we walked away with cover with considerably less loading than we expected.”

“John and the wider team at Lion were extremely helpful, proactive, courteous and efficient in handling my queries, and were immediately able to chart the course of action in order to proceed to policy issuance. They are extremely knowledgeable in their field - much more nuanced in their responses than other brokers. The team at Lion take the time to explain the 'how' and the 'why' and make you feel like your case matters to them.”

“I had a fantastic experience with lion.ie, John was incredibly helpful and pleasant. I was worried sick about securing mortgage protection insurance due to having multiple health issues, but the process ended up being very smooth and I was relieved to get fast approval without any issues other than a small loading fee, which was way better than I expected. Many thanks to lion.ie for helping me and saving me so much stress!”
