GBGreat Annuity Rates, Easy Application The fixed annuity rates were very good. The online application was easy. I have contacted the customer service a few times and got good response. I would like to see more information either online or in the contract to clearly see the maturity value at the end of each year if no withdrawals were made. Also, early withdrawal penalty amount should be clearly displayed by the end of each year.

GBHelpful I got in touch with Cynthia by buying Canvas annuity, and she was quite professional and helpful. so when I had the problem with funds of other company's annuity, I naturally thought of her, I asked her for advice, and she gave me good advice. I really appreciate it.

GBI went with Canvas/Puritan Life for the… I went with Canvas/Puritan Life for the fixed interest rate. The rate Is 75 bp higher than any other company I researched due to the "do It yourself" platform. Puritan Life's BBB+ rating by AM Best is acceptable but unfortunately there is no Comdex rating for Puritan. I would prefer dealing with an agent but for 75bp it's worth doing the legwork. Canvas needs to do a better job marketing their product. Unfortunately I rolled my wife's 403b about 10 months ago into a lower interest rate with a different annuity company.
