Credit Protection for Belize Bank Line
Your Belize Bank Line Personal Line of Credit can give you convenient access to credit for your everyday purchases and expenses. However, in the event of your death or the diagnosis of a covered critical illness, this convenience could become your family’s financial obligation.
Credit Protection can remove these worries.
Credit Life Protection can pay off the outstanding loan balance on your account in the event of your death, relieving your loved ones of added financial pressure at a difficult time.
Critical Illness Protection is a living benefit, which means that the outstanding loan balance on your Belize Bank Line account can be paid off in the event you are diagnosed with a covered critical illness (specifically heart attack, cancer, or stroke).
If you already have Life Protection, you may want to add Critical Illness coverage or consider joint coverage if you have a secondary cardholder on your account.
As a Belize Bank Line account holder, you are already approved for coverage provided you and your secondary borrower (if you choose) are less than 65 years old on the date you enrol for Life Protection or less than 55 years old if you decide to enroll for both Life and Critical Illness Protection. No health questions are asked.

Your premium is based on the average daily balance on your Belize Bank Line account during the billing period and your age at the end of each Belize Bank Line billing period (or in the case of joint coverage, on the age of the older Insured Borrower).
The average daily Belize Bank Line account balance during the billing period is divided by 1,000 and then multiplied by the applicable premium rate, as indicated above, to arrive at the premium (and tax, if applicable) for the billing period.
This amount is automatically billed to your Belize Bank Line account every billing period and appears on your monthly statement. No insurance premium is charged on your Belize Bank Line account if you did not carry a balance on your previous month’s statement.
