I was looking forward to a successful carrer with UGA/Mega and I did not have any insurance background. I was told that it was good to not have an insurance background, you did not need to know the facts to sell the insurance. That should have raised a huge red flag but I really needed the work.
I want to warn prospective agents and consumers alike because there was gross misrepresentations made by my direct manager and the District Manager.
There was little training and a lot of misinformation about insurance. When I raised technical questions, I was looked at as if I had three heads. "if they are asking those questions, you must be doing something wrong" was a typical response. "Don't answer those questions, just get the check" was another solution to a consumer question.
Unfortunately, I did sell policies to innocent people. Those people do not have the coverage I thought I sold them. When the consumer questions were in direct conflict with my consious for an answer, my production dropped off.
When my production dropped off, I was let go.
Now they are going after me for a return of the commission that I earned. The consumers returned the policy before the date allowed by law and according to the contract that I signed, unkowingly, there is a clause that allows them to go after me for any money they may not earn or their terrible policies. I am out thousands of dollars and now being threatened to make them whole.
Agents Beware!!! Consumers, run away!!! You don't need to pay for something you won't get.
