How to cancel Scottish Widows by mail

  1. Get your account details together

    Check the policy number, the full name of the policyholder and the date of your last payment before anything else. A request that does not match the account on file at Scottish Widows is the easiest one to set aside.

  2. Draft the request

    Your Postbye letter to Scottish Widows asks for three things: the account closed, no further charges and a written confirmation, all under “Subject: Cancellation Request – [your name]”. It comes from our English template.

  3. Mail it with tracking

    Address the envelope to Scottish Widows, Edinburgh, exactly as printed in the next section. Certified mail gives you a tracking number and a delivery record.

  4. Save the tracking record

    File the receipt with the letter. A Scottish Widows charge dated after delivery is the one to dispute, and these two documents are what you quote.

With Postbye, steps 2 to 4 take about two minutes of your time.

Cancelling a life insurance policy

Life policies are long contracts with payment dates and sometimes a surrender value, so the request should name the policy, say whether you are cancelling or surrendering it, and carry your signature.

A phone call leaves nothing behind; a letter leaves a copy, a date and a delivery receipt.

Scottish Widows's own site is scottishwidows.co.uk. Check its account and billing area first to see whether the plan is billed by Scottish Widows itself or by a partner.
