Aoife Morgan was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. She helped us arrange our life cover policy and found us an excellent quote. She was always friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful, even taking the time to answer our questions outside of working hours and on weekends. We really appreciate all her support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for life insurance or mortgage protection.

From our very first conversation, Shaun was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to fully understand my situation with mortgage and then worked to find the best possible solution for us. Shaun secured us an Protection Plan with competitive premium. What impressed me most was his attention to detail. He explained everything in clear, jargon-free language, compared all the options transparently, and made sure the policy would meet AIB’s requirements without any hassle. He was also extremely proactive with the paperwork and guided us through assigning the policy to AIB. The whole process was smooth, stress-free, and efficient. Shaun is trustworthy, responsive, and genuinely puts his clients first. It’s rare to find someone who combines great expertise with such great customer care. Thanks to Shaun, we got excellent cover and total peace of mind. If you need mortgage insurance in Ireland, Shaun Young is the person to speak to. You are gem for Low Quotes!!

I can't recommend LowQuotes highly enough, especially Shaun. What should have been a straightforward policy turned into a long process that took months, but Shaun never gave up. He fought tooth and nail to get everything over the line for me. Throughout the entire process, he kept in regular contact, rang with updates, and made sure I always knew what was happening. His communication, persistence, and commitment to helping me were outstanding. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. If you're looking for someone who genuinely goes above and beyond for their customers, ask for Shaun. His dedication and professionalism made a stressful situation so much easier. I will 100% be using their service again.Thank you again!

I recently worked with Aoife Morgan from Low quotes to set up my income protection policy, and I could not be happier with the service. They took the huge time to explain the differences between "Own Occupation" and "Any Occupation" clauses, ensuring I got the right coverage for my job. They also helped me align my deferred period perfectly with my company’s sick pay scheme to keep my premiums as low as possible. The process was completely transparent, highly professional, and stress-free. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to secure their financial future.

I worked with Maik on an income protection quote, and I was genuinely impressed by the level of service I received. He was extremely polite, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. What stood out most was how he took the time to break everything down clearly in an email after I asked for written explanations; it made my decisions so much easier. I did compare quotes elsewhere, but his approach and willingness to explain every detail in a way that actually made sense really set him apart. He made the entire process less stressful and it was nice to chat to him. I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for income protection or general insurance advice. In addition, LowQuotes had the best interactive site and the fastest response I came across in this process. Highly recommend. Iva

Would highly recommended dealing with Cormac for all your mortgage protection needs!

I had reached out to LowQuotes after receiving delayed responses from another broker. I was in a bit of a hurry to acquire a mortgage protection policy. I'm glad I got in touch with Cormac Logue as he was excellent in defining all the requirements and expected timelines. Cormac was there with me every step of the way and it helped massively that he was knowledgeable and had ample experience dealing with the underwriters. Even when I had a hiccup with some details due to my own mistake, Cormac ensured me that he will get my updated policy documents issued on time. I recommend using LowQuotes for all your insurance needs and thank Cormac for his guidance.

Advantages of Getting Cancer Only Cover

Cancer Cover is an insurance policy that provides you with a cash lump sum upon a cancer diagnosis. This financial support aims to minimise your stress, allowing you to focus solely on your recovery and well-being. This coverage can be purchased either as a standalone option or as an addition to an existing life insurance policy. These are some of the reasons to get this specific type of cover: 

Serious Illness Cover is out of reach

If you’ve been denied serious illness cover due to pre-existing conditions such as heart issues or diabetes, cancer cover emerges as  viable alternative.

Preparedness against high risk 

With the highest cancer rates in Europe and nearly 45,000 people in Ireland diagnosed each year, cancer cover is essential for financial and health security.

No financial stress from medical costs and utility bills.

Cancer patients face average monthly expenses of over €261 for medicines and medical expenses, with total additional costs reaching €756 and sometimes even surpassing €1,000, underscoring the significant financial burden of a cancer diagnosis. 

Supplement Income 

If you need to take time off work for treatment or recovery, the lump sum from cancer cover can help replace lost income during this period.

Affordable Premiums

Cancer cover premiums can be more cost-effective than comprehensive serious illness insurance.
