The Rep threw me out of his office for asking questions!!
Hello, (West Chicago, IL) I have been searching for employment for several months so when I got a phone call from the Primerica Rep, I obliged to meet with him. At our meeting, I became curious and asked several questions which infuriated the Rep...he told me that I had "pissed him off" and he told me to "screw myself" when I got deeper into asking how I would get paid. DONT DO IT!!! This lack of professionalism is TERRIBLE !

Untrustworthy
I allowed a Primerica Rep to come to my home. After the meeting and information was taken down I had noticed some of my accounts were being hacked into. After research it was the Rep from Primerica that did the hacking. It alarms me that this company hires people like that. The individual that hacked also got a promotion.
Doesn't seem right. Might want to screen your possible candidates better.

Primerica will not stop bothering me and now they are trying to make me feel like I’m stupid
Primerica will not stop bothering me and now they are trying to make me feel like I’m stupid. They’re very high pressure and will not take a simple any thanks for an answer. They tried to get me to sign up and I said no so they decided to sell me Insurance that I don’t need. They tell me my Insurance is bad and the one they have is the best.
They are the only company that has good Insurance? I was not born yesterday. So if they are the only good ones why are they not on the news and headlining the papers.
I do not want to be pushed into something I don’t want and made to feel like an idiot for not doing it. I would definitely say to stay away from this company. It is a pyramid scheme no matter what they call it now. It is the same thing. Please be careful and do not jump into anything with these people.
If you let them talk to you then before you know it you are being talking into something you don’t want. And when you think it over and say no thanks. They get upset with you and get really pushy.

BEST
Primerica! I have worked for many financial companies before and by far the best I have ever seen. I don't understand how people come on this site and complain about a company they never even JONINED! How stupid! #1 $99 ummm if you have good trainer you will receive $1200 in your training. I did! What is wrong with yall? #2 How do you have anything BAD to say about a company that saves family from financial ruin? This company educates people how not to go down the wrong financial road. You people don't even have enough guts to try! How about try 1st and if you dont like get your stinky $99 back. Are you that broke that you cant afford to give $99 to make $1200??? # PLEASE PLEASE! Please tell me why people always say this isn't for me or I do something like this? Whatever! We are taught to become whatever we decide. No person is born a financial expert or doctor DUH! And most of the stuff we do has little to do with coming up with numbers. THAT'S what a computer is FOR!
So for all of you the say I need to do some research dont! If $99 is a problem for you go get a job. Go get build wealth for your boss and hurry please jobs are being outsourced, so they wont be around much longer! THANX WINNER KEEP THEIR EYES OPEN FOR OPPORTUNITY!

refund
Joined primerica on 10/14/10 and tried to go to website [email protected] and couldnt get to the site to cancel and get refund. my rep # was VPGY8 Bryan Harris and phone is the way to contact me. This is ridiculous and disappointing that a company with all these assets cant even let me on a website to get 69 of 99 refunded

Primerica Research
Hello, to all the positive open-minded people of this great country and the great countries around the world. People with ambition and goals are the back bone to building a strong economy. Quality information and education are important for making decisions. When I was presented with an opportunity to meet with a Primerica representative I looked to find as much information as possible about the company.
Starting with a general search of the Better Business Bureau in Atlanta, Georgia I found an A+ rating the highest possible rating from the BBB.
Industry Rating Companies
A.M. Best rating of A++. The Strength of Primerica’s distribution model is evident in the exceptional sales results generated for Primerica Life. The highest rating they offer out of 15 ratings.
Moody’s Investor Service rating of Aa1. Primerica’s important position in the market of individual life insurance is credited for the upgrade. The second highest rating they offer out of 19 ratings.
Standard & Poor’s rating of AA. The AA claims-paying ability of Primerica Life Insurance Co. is based on its healthy statutory profitability and capitalization, and its strong market position as the leading writer of individual term life insurance. The third highest rating they offer out of 18 ratings.
Fitch rating of AA. The rating reflects the low-risk nature of the company’s business, strong capital position, excellent asset quality and liquidity, leading market position in term life insurance sales, strong sales momentum and consistent profitability resulting from an established franchise and low-cost distribution system. The third highest rating they offer out of 21 ratings.
Research on the FINRA website. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority under arbitration and mediation shows no results for Primerica. Which means everything they are doing as a company is legal and ethical.
Research on the SEC website. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shows filings related to the sale of assets of Shearson to Primerica. Any litigation is against individuals that let greed get in their way and operated outside of the law and company policy for their own personal gain. No wrong doing on the part of Primerica other than not finding the frauds committed by the individuals.
Research on the NAIC website. National Association of Insurance Commissioners finds an article speaking to the challenges to the industry and the need for more people to be licensed to help the millions of people that need education and service relating to financial matters.
Searching for more information about Primerica finds that they had an IPO on the NYSE an April 1, 2010. Further research shows that the IPO was very successful. Warburg Pincus invested $230 million in Primerica.
After doing real research with credible sources I looked at the company from a skeptics view and looked into the remarks made by many that scream mlm, pyramid, scam and other negative comments.
Most comments are made by individuals that went to one meeting or didn’t show up at all to find out the truth. Some stated they worked for Primerica but moved onto other companies in the industry, (competitors trying to discredit their competition). Most of these comments are inflammatory and negative without a basis in fact.
Most jobs in this world offer security of just enough compensation to keep someone from leaving. If someone is willing to spend 20-60 hours a week giving full effort to a company for base wages they will be rewarded the same as someone who will spend 20-60 hours a week doing just enough to not be terminated.
During the economic downturn of 2008-2009 thousands of people found how the company they give their lives to can easily dismiss them.
Many businesses offer franchise opportunity to start on the bottom and work hard to build that business into something great. Franchising is a viable business model to grow a company. Network Marketing or mlm for the negative minded is a viable business model to grow a company. Franchisees pay large fees to market under the name of the established company. Primerica offers the same opportunity to build a business without thousands of dollars to start.
After looking into the cost of licensing including education, testing, and fingerprinting a financial services representative could spend well over $1000.
Primerica offers all of the licensing, support, field training, and expertise of an experience Regional Vice President who has a vested interest in your success for a onetime fee of $99 that includes background checks and administration necessary for the highly regulated industry.
Primerica is for entrepreneurial, motivated people with high ethical standards. A Primerica representative must also have a good work ethic . Being able to learn how money works and then being able to teach other people how money works and to help them be properly protected, debt free, and save for the future.
Further research shows that Primerica is in the distribution of financial services business. Middle income families are underserved by financial services companies. Bankruptcy and foreclosure plague our country. Primerica is on a crusade to help families one at a time learn what needs to be done in their lives and others to correct the financial problems.
Anyone with a positive outlook can see through the fog and find Primerica as a company that is in business to help families with their finances, help their representatives build a business, and like any corporation make a profit.
Anyone with a negative outlook will continue to say and think negative thoughts. Hopefully, one day you will see life and people in a positive light. I wish you the best in life.

Negative posts
Some information to consider when you post defamation under the supposed cloak of anonymous names. When you leave a post that is not grounded in pure fact. Anyone who says negative comments about a company in writing is subject to laws regarding libel. Partial truths and white lies are not pure fact. Real research through the BBB, Federal Trade Commission, and Industry Associations delivers the facts.

Practices
Primerica sells life insurance and other products that consumers may (or may not) need. I cannot attest to the quality of their products but their tactics are those of a multi-level marketing organization. A few make some money, a very few make fairly good money and the founder makes VERY good money off those who are "agents".
The company preys on individuals who seem desperate for a job or are in financial straits. Those who can least afford all the "costs' involved in becoming an "agent". True example: If you are in your late sixties, consistently late on your mortgage, utilities etc. stretching your social security and looking for a job they "suck' you in with promises of great wea;th. what they really do, is create wealth for the very few high up in the company. You pay a fee for internet, they try to sign you up (with promises you can later cancel..hard to do) for their prepaid legal, debt analysis and of course life insurance. They make you use all your pretinent information, Driver's Lic. numbers etc, on "training applications" thus getting you in the system. Why a single man in his late sixties with 250, 000 life insurance really needs more is questionable. In other word, using this practice...the manat the top can make up to 6 million profit on company services from "agents" per month. And that is only based on 50, 000 agents with minimum purchases of services from the company. Imagine what is amounts to in reality since there are far more than 50, 000 and more being sucked in all the time.
Their presentations are nothing short of a "rowdy party" and not the environment I'd like to reveal my personal information. They convince agents that anyone who complains is actually a representative from another company. Also, that you are stupid if you don't fall for the company's cult like behavior.
I am NOT employed by any insurance company, I am a college graduate with honors and my IQ is well above normal. I attended one meeting at the request of the aforementioned older gentleman and was horrified. I continue to be horrified at the bills he puts off in order to subscribe to this company that will make him a millionaire. They call constantly, send a card when he was ill that encouraged him to get well so he could sell more...all comments on the card were about helping the company not about his health. The constant calls bugging him to contact people are adding to his cell bill and annoying when he is in a social situation. If he says he is busy, they literally tract him down and show up. If he is busy they make him grovel and apologize for being at some other obligation. It is a cult if nothing else...and once in it is difficult to get out.
BUYER BE WARE!!! If it sounds too good to be true...it is!
