Main reasons for mis-sale

There are a number of different options available when taking out life assurance. Many advisors chose the Whole of Life policy for the consumer rather than a term assurance, often not giving them enough information to make an informed choice.
Many consumers were not advised that the Whole of Life policy would be reviewed in later years.

Many advisors did not discuss the possibility of the life cover amount reducing or the premium needing to increase.
Many advisors did not take into account the level of experience consumers had.

A whole of life policy has a stocks and shares investment element that has potential for some returns but also comes with increased risk that often didn’t match the attitude of the customer.

Whole of Life Claim Facts

It does not matter if your policy has been surrendered.

Regardless of whether your whole of life policy is still in force, if you have suffered financially because of the policy, you can make a complaint.

Is your Whole of Life provider no longer in business? No problem.

As long as your policy was taken out after August 1988 then it is covered under the FSCS (Financial Services Compensation Scheme). This is a government body set up to deal with financial claims for providers regulated by the FCA that have ceased trading and have been declared in default.

You do not need to use a CMC to make a complaint to a provider or other compensation scheme, such as the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). If your complaint is not successful you can refer it to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) yourself fee free.
