John Lewis Life Cover is provided by Friends Life and Pensions Limited.
Please read the Key Facts and Membership Handbook for full details of the cover. The Membership Handbook is also commonly known as 'policy conditions' or 'terms and conditions'.
A John Lewis Life Cover Plan doesn't have a cash-in value and requires you to make monthly payments. The cost of your cover will depend on your individual needs and circumstances and the amount of cover you choose.
It's important to remember that the buying power of any money paid out will reduce with inflation, so you need to make sure that you take out sufficient life cover and regularly review your arrangements with us.
Pays a cash sum that stays the same throughout the cover period unless you change the amount of cover.
The level of cover reduces each month in line with the capital outstanding on a repayment mortgage with an interest rate of 10% a year.
- Decreasing Term Cover
The level of cover decreases each month at an equal rate throughout the cover period.
- Family Income Benefit Cover
The cash sum is paid in annual installments for each year remaining in the cover period after a claim is accepted.
- Renewable Term Cover
Pays a fixed cash sum, where your cover is renewed every five or ten years. This will either increase or decrease what you pay based on current premium rates and your age, without the need for further medical evidence.
You can apply for any of the cover options to cover just you, you and another person, or one or two people not including you.

Terms, conditions, limitations, exclusions and eligibility criteria apply.
