We are in our 50’s and had a real challenge on our hand to get mortgage protection insurance as my wife had type 2 diabetes with a really high HbA1c reading and high blood pressure of 155/90 along with very high BMI of 36 and I had elevated cholesterol 7.1 and white coat syndrome for high blood pressure at 165/82 if I got my blood pressure checked at GP with a BMI of 32. John Hourigan at lion.ie was amazing to work with and gave us precise advice on how to approach the insurers for getting our mortgage protection in place. He took our blood reports and other Medical data and approached the underwriters in advance securing pre approvals which was amazing as we had got a lot of postponements due to our tough medical health .He then guided us through the PMA process whereby our GP had to fill out our medical reports. When John went on holidays Kathleen Sammon and Hannah McGowan provided amazing support and coverage. I was anxious , nervous & frustrated and would call and email multiple times asking questions and following up on status and was always responded to courteously and in a timely fashion. We have secured our mortgage protection which enabled us to buy our dream house. I am delighted we chose Lion.ie for our mortgage protection

I was delighted with the service provided by Nick and Richie. I needed mortgage protection and had a medical condition. After filling in the online form, Nick replied very quickly (even though it was between Christmas and New Years). Richie advised me on mortgage protection and within a few days it was sorted. He was very prompt in responding to any emails with any questions i had. Mortgages are complicated but thankfully Richie and Nick made what could have been another headache effortless. Overall great service. Thanks Richie.

Lion were absolutely invaluable in navigating our mortgage protection insurance with a history of medical issues. Hannah was absolutely amazing and so on the ball reminding us when we got overwhelmed or frazzled with what felt like endless tasks as part of this journey to our own home. She made the whole process so much easier and stress free, going above and beyond to help us to get all the paperwork sorted in time.

We couldn't recommend Lion enough, Hannah went above and beyond for us and it was so appreciated. Buying your first home and all the paperwork that comes with it is so so overwhelming and especially when you've got a history of medical issues it can be really nerve wracking. Hannah was absolutely incredible and honestly far more on the ball than we were ourselves! We couldn't have done it without her help and she's an absolute credit to the team!

Ritchie was just lovely to deal with. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Gave great advice and nothing was too much trouble. Hannah had the legal documents to me really quickly and I was signed up and done after two phone calls.

I had the pleasure of working with Richie for my mortgage protection insurance, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the service provided. From the very start, Richie was highly professional, responsive, and efficient in understanding my needs. What stood out the most was how quickly everything was handled—my policy was secured in a two days, much quicker than I expected. I highly recommend Richie to anyone in need of insurance services. Thank you Richie again.

I have had a very positive experience with Lion.ie and would definitely recommend them! My insurance case was not very straightforward I was initially a bit anxious about how it may be approached. But everyone who has dealt with me during my process was very tactful, friendly and most importantly super responsive. I will definitely be back shall the need arise.

Hannah and all the guys at Lion were nothing short of amazing in helping us with getting mortgage protection insurance. As a first time buyer and a type 1 diabetic I was really worried about getting coverage but the price that they were able to get for us was great, and it was a really smooth and easy process. Couldn't recommend enough!

We were buying a new house and having a current policy with Lion we decided to stay with the team. John was great. He was all over it from the beginning and sent us reminders when needed. He has great patience (as it was a long process) but then managed to turn the policy around for us in few hours!

I had a great experience working with John Hourigan in Lion.ie. and would highly recommend them to anyone. I contacted Lion.ie for help obtaining mortgage protection, I had recently been diagnosed with sleep apnea and was worried that obtaining mortgage protection may be difficult. John in lion took all the stress out of the process and made the application easy. thanks John and Lion.ie for all your help, we really appreciate it

I had a really positive experience with Lion and with John specifically, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone with health issues or who is outside of the 'norm' for mortgage protection. When other companies wouldn't give me the time of day, John went above and beyond to make sure I got covered. It went from a really stressful experience where I was worried the purchase of our house would fall through, to something I no longer needed to worry about. Thanks so much again!
