Free Look Period
The free look period is a set number of days after receiving a life insurance policy during which you can cancel it for a full refund of any premium paid, no questions asked.
Example
After receiving a new policy in the mail, a buyer might review the exact terms and riders during the free look period before deciding to keep it.
Common mistake
A common mistake is not actually reading the policy during the free look period, treating it as a formality rather than a real opportunity to catch a mismatch.
