I am very happy that I have found a reliable company to get a larger return for my money, without having to go through an intermediary source. My husband and I both have annuities and so far I have been very happy with any dealings I have had with Gainbridge!

Good option for higher yield and deferred income

For the most part it was an easy process. I had questions and spoke to a representative who was very helpful.The only thing that stopped me from giving 5 stars was that funding took a little too long.

Try, Compare, make a conclusion !!!

People had told me about Gainbridge. I decided to give it a try. I bought an annuity from Gainbridge and another from Prudential (which some of my friends really liked). I will see how everything goes over the next 10 years as I compare everything about the 2 companies and I will let everyone know what I discover from owning both.

Doing business online and over the phone

Doing business online and over the phone is putting a whole lot of trust in their hands. I am old school when it comes to that, I would rather walk into a building (brick and mortar) as they call it and do a banking transaction. However, I have several annuities with GB at this point and they have been outstanding from start to finish and made me feel comfortable and confident all will go well and it has in every aspect. Professional, kind and competent no matter what REP you happen to speak to by phone. They assist with patience and understanding and I am happy with the results.

Great product but flawed online portal

Gainbridge offers great products, but as an on-line only company the process to purchase an annuity is unnecessarily complex and prone to error. It took months to update my address which cannot be done on-line and prevented me from purchasing another contract, It took many calls and emails to their outstanding support team to remedy the situation and complete the new contract.

Simple Site to Get and Monitor Annuities

My experience on the Gainbridge site was a good one. Everything went well. The site was easy to use and navigate. I was able to get an annuity without having to make a trip to see a broker.
