Changing Variable annuity agent
Changing Variable annuity agent
The AXA Variable Annuity I own was sold to me in 2006 and I still own it and plan to annuitize it in 5-6 years. The broker who sold it to me died and I need some guidance regarding timing and other nuances of the annuity. Can someone recommend someone who would review the contract? I’m not comfortable with the AXA customer service people.

In all candor, I expect that the AXA customer service folks should be more capable to discuss nuances of the annuity than an agent.Audman wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 4:11 pm The AXA Variable Annuity I own was sold to me in 2006 and I still own it and plan to annuitize it in 5-6 years.

That being said, if you want an agent, I’d just google “AXA agent (my city)” and see what you come up with.

I have to agree with the previous response. Another AXA agent will not be interested unless he/she sees some potential for a new sale.

And if you do get a new agent, be very, very careful if she/he suggests cashing out your present VA and buying something that is "New and better".

Another suggestion would be to post your specific questions here; there are many knowledgeable poster on the board who might also be able to help.

If you talk to the company, I find that the frontline people do NoT understand the products well. When I unfortunately held an annuity, I can’t tell you how many times I received wrong information from the company.
This would be in particular true if you have a complex question.
I think some here have used Stan the annuity man but personally do not have any experience.
