Senior Life Insurance Company–which has the unfortunate acronym of SLIC– was sued in a TCPA class action in Virginia recently. It moved to dismiss arguing the complaint did not actually state FACTS to show it made the calls at issue.
Earlier this week the Court agreed in Matthews v. Senior Life Insurance 2025 WL 1181789 (E.D. VA April 22, 2025).
Interestingly the complaint actually did allege the calls were “from” SLIC and that a caller was an “employee” of SLIC. Indeed Plaintiff even alleges that during one of the calls he was asked “regarding qualifying for SLIC life insurance.”
Still the court found these allegations too conclusory to state a claim. Unstated here is the assumption that someone else might have been making calls on SLIC’s behalf–which shows a pretty sophisticated court that understands SLIC’s business model likely does not include a bunch of captive w-2 agents calling out to sell policies.
Pretty interesting one that TCPA defendants should keep in mind.
