Simply say NO

The consumer advice centre warns and clarifies: Financial advisors use the university grounds to sell unnecessary insurance and savings contracts.

The consumer advice centre has launched a nationwide information campaign about the practices of financial product salespeople on university campuses.

It points out that the products sold here may not be tailored to students and that the fund policies may still be in the red even after many years.

The advice from the consumer advice centre: It's better to say NO and don't fall into the advice trap, because the aim here is often to sell you financial products in order to receive a commission.

Please clarify beforehand whether you really need the product and get advice from the financial experts at the consumer advice centre.

You can find out what you can do in advance, what options you have if you have already signed and how you can proceed if you have already made an appointment with a representative here at the consumer advice centre. 

The Counselling Centre for Student Financing - BeSt also provides you with independent and free advice on all matters relating to student financing. If you have any social, personal or economic questions or problems, please contact the Counselling Centre for Social & International Affairs - BeSI – even in crisis and conflict situations.
