01 / How we help
Make room for
better questions.
Understand the coverage you have. Talk through what matters to you. Explore options without committing to a change.
Understand Coverage Terms
Talk through benefits, limitations and terminology shown in your documents. Your policy and the insurer’s records control coverage; our agency cannot make a carrier coverage or claim decision.
Explore Available Options
Ask about life insurance products an agent is licensed and authorized to offer. Availability, eligibility and pricing vary. A conversation does not change or cancel your current policy.
Speak With a Licensed Agent

Your Transamerica policy
Preparing your Transamerica policy information
Have your individual policy or certificate schedule ready. Transamerica’s Insurance Service Now guidance distinguishes your policy or certificate number from a master or group policy number; online servicing availability depends on the policy.
Need official account service?
Insurance Service Now does not support every Transamerica policy. If it does not apply to yours, use the servicing contact printed on your policy.

My Policy Help Desk is an independent licensed insurance agency.
Our licensed insurance agents discuss life insurance questions and products they are licensed and authorized to offer.
We are not owned by, operated by or endorsed by Transamerica, any insurance carrier or any government agency.
Products, pricing and eligibility vary by state, age, health, policy type and insurer requirements. Not all options are available to every applicant.
Before you call
A few things
worth knowing.
Clear answers, from the start.
Is this Transamerica customer service?
No. Calls reach My Policy Help Desk’s licensed insurance agents. We are an independent agency, not Transamerica. We discuss life insurance questions and available options; we cannot access carrier accounts, take carrier payments, change carrier records or process claims.
Does one Transamerica portal work for every policy?
No. Online options depend on your policy. Insurance Service Now’s registration guidance uses the individual policy or certificate number, not a master or group number. For access or servicing, follow your policy’s official contact instructions; we cannot log in on your behalf.
Can I ask about additional coverage without cancelling my policy?
Yes. A conversation with our agency does not change or cancel your coverage. Ask whether keeping your current policy and adding coverage could fit your needs. A replacement may involve new underwriting, costs or benefit limitations. Do not cancel existing coverage just because you have applied for another policy; confirm the new policy and its effective date first.
What should I compare besides the monthly premium?
Compare the death benefit, how long coverage lasts, whether premiums can change, any initial benefit limits, exclusions and riders. For a policy with illustrated values, distinguish contractual guarantees from non-guaranteed projections. Your documents and the issuing insurer establish the terms; an advertised price alone is not a complete comparison.
Is there any obligation to buy?
No. You can ask life insurance questions without committing to buy or change coverage. If you choose to explore another policy, ask about its costs, eligibility requirements and coverage terms before deciding.
What should I have ready for the conversation?
Have your policy or coverage summary and the questions you want to discuss nearby. We work from information you provide; we do not log in to carrier accounts. Do not share account passwords or one-time security codes.
Can you check a payment, policy status or claim?
No. Contact your carrier using the details on your policy or its official website for payment confirmation, official policy status, account changes and claims. Our independent agency can separately discuss life insurance questions and available coverage options.
