In this study, we show that every continuous Jordan left derivation on a (commutative or noncommutative) prime UMV-Banach algebra with the identity element 1 is identically zero. Moreover, we prove that every continuous left derivation on a unital finite dimensional Banach algebra, under certain conditions, is identically zero. As another result in this regard, it is proved that if R is a 2-torsion free semiprime ring such that ann{[y, z] | y, z ∈ R} = {0}, then every Jordan left derivation L :
