Best Answer

An insurance company will normally only cancel a policy for two reasons (1) the item being insured no longer exists or (2) the insured (you) has breached the conditions of the policy.

Even if an insurance company decides not to cover a particular risk, they will normally let any existing policies run out and then not renew them.

If a policy is being cancelled, you must find out why. If you don't agree there will be a way of complaining or appealing. Find out how to do that. You must maintain cover either by persuading the insurer to extend cover (maybe at a higher price or with a higher excess) or by obtaining new cover elsewhere.

Note that you must tell the new insurer that the old insurer cancelled your policy. If you fail to do that, they can escape liability on the basis of your failure to disclose material facts.

Should the insurance company contact the insured person when a life insurance policy matures?

When the policy matures, an attempt must be made to contact the policyowner at the last address the insurance company has. But if they have moved and not notified the insurance company, after a few months, the maturity value of the policy will be sent by the company to the State that they operate in as unclaimed property. If the policy simply ends - such as with a term life policy - the policy will state the date when coverage ends.
