If you die, do you get a refund of your National Insurance stamps?

Question

they add up over the years and if you are dead you wouldn't be needing the National Health Service any more would you, so wouldn't a refund be in order?

Answer 1

a refund would certainly be in order, but how would you collect?

Answer 2

If you die, I can't see any way you can get a refund of anything unless you want it in your coffin.

Answer 3

u prolly dont cuz theres no one left to remind the gov

i always wondered whats the point of life insurance also

i mean why would u care about money when ur dead?

Answer 4

If you do get a refund, I don't think YOU would get it. It would go to the next of kin. Or help pay off your final expenses.  

Answer 5

They count towards your state pension not healthcare, so the value would go to the surviving spouse if applicable.

If no spouse, then no return, soz.

Answer 6

What would be the point? What would be the point in collecting any taxes at all if they all had to be refunded one day?

Answer 7

Only if there is a special Post Office in Heaven, supposed you go to heaven.There you must move heaven and earth to get your stamps . back!.

Answer 8

Sorry not a chance, you would be dead the only way your family could claim anything is if you left nothing behind and your family would have to be supported by the state.
