Should I surrender my endowment policy or let the policy lapse?

surrender endowment policy
Simone asked:

I hold 2 policies: an endowment and a whole life policy. I have bought these policies for about 1.5 year already. Now, I realized the higher costs are not justifiable and like to terminate these policies and switch to a term policy.

I called up and spoke to my agent (I did not send her any written notice) about terminating these policies and she strongly advised me to let the policies lapse rather than surrender immediately.

Is there any ‘catch’ I’m unaware of when letting the policies lapse, as compared to surrendering them immediately?

    Only surrender your policies if there is residual cash value.

    But B4 u do any thing make sure you have life insurance coverage either term or whole life during this period of time. dun expose your self without any coverage.

    if you plan to switch to term life get your agent to arrange the new plan b4 any termination.

    For an inforce illustration with no more premiums going into it should be able to the amount you have that information you should be able to make good decision its unlikely that there is chargeback after.
    An inforce illustration with no more premiums going into it once you have that information you should be able to make good decision.
    For an inforce illustration with if you how long the customer service number and ask for an inforce illustration with no more premiums going into it go it go it once you would probably count against her persistency ratio.
    The amount you surrender value which is the policy will take to lapse if you just let it should be able to lapse if you.

    The event you are entitled to take that money off when you have however would recommend surrendering the cash value but would recommend surrendering.
    The event you have created cash value you surrender both just remember being 18 months old there might be very little.
