FINRA BrokerCheck shows a settled customer complaint with a damage request of $11,634.00 on April 26, 2021.
In a written complaint received on April 26, 2021, addressed to Bankers Life and Casualty Company (BLC), an insurance company affiliate of the Firm, client alleged that he was not aware of restrictions pertaining to access of the money used to fund a Premium Bonus Indexed Annuity (PBIA) which was purchased from BLC in October of 2020 and requested a full refund. BLC determined that the PBIA was consistent with the client’s stated financial goals, but released the full amount back to the client without penalty. While the annuity sold to client was not a security and was issued by BLC, the Firm is reporting this complaint because the source of funding for the BLC annuity came from the sale of securities recommended by a registered representative of this Firm.
