Liberty National Life Insurance Lying to people and telling them the only way they can get a cheap insurance class for $99 is throug him with a credit card. Jacksonville, Florida
I had a job interview with Liberty National Life this week and am really appalled by their recruiting methods.
I sat for a 2 hour interview with 6 other people and learned all about the insurance business. Up front it sounded great and I was interested so I stayed for the personal interview.
The personal interview entailed him talking to everyone one on one and then finishing paperwork. The last piece of paperwork was to give him your credit card information so you could get a $99 dollar class for health and life insurance on line so you could get your insurance license.
Luckily I did not do this but a few of the other people did. I came home and got on my computer and tried to find out the cheapest way I could get a test without going through this guy who told me the only way to get it for that price was with his discount and that is why he needed my information.
Needless to say I found many places where I could get the $99 dollar price without giving him my credit information so I am thinking this guy is scamming everyones money and he needs to be stopped.
Thank god I am one of the smart ones that checked this out before jumping in . Please someone needs to let all these people know what is going on and hopefully get there money back.

I just started working for Liberty and I must say you are wrong. The 99 dollar "fee" as you say it is the pre-licensing course that is REQUIRED to take the state exam because they must see a copy. I know many other classroom trainings that range from 100-300 dollars. I did this training from the license coach and I must say it was helpful and I passed the test the first time in only 4 days of studying. Next time you want to go bash a company you may want to have your facts so here they are.
1. The pre-licensing course is a requirement for your state license, you can't take the state exam without it.
2. There are tons of other companies that are the same price or more expensive but don't do any better.
You could go many places for a test but they are all full of s***. Guess what? The branch manager wants you in a course that is going to prepare you quickly and well for the state exam because that means you will be an agent faster. The BM has no interest in having someone take a course from a "fly by night" company.
