What is the name of your state?VA
A life insurance contract was issued to me in 1998, and has been in force every since. It is a 20 year guaranteed term. The company recently discovered after my agent made an inquiry about the policy that they mistakenly issued the policy as FEMALE when I am a male. The agent mistakenly checked the FEMALE box on application, but the company processed my wife's application simultaneously and we were both listed as husband and wife for each other, so they really should have caught it. Now that they realized it, they said they must reissue the policy. The GRACIOUSLY said i don't have to pay back premiums but must pay new premiums from here forward. Under the terms of contract law, I believe I have no obligation to sign anything ammending the original contract and that there is nothing they can do to change my premium under the original contract they issued and i accepted. ANY ADVISE FROM ANYONE???
