  • All i can say is be very careful. Ten days ago i signed up for Vickers Anderson Consulting for a supposedly returnable fee of £495, and after posting about it on this board.

    Last nights Watchdog blew the whistle on that one - i presume i'm unlikely to see the £495 when i cancel.

    look at Watchdog site and go to Vickers Anderson (good name, sounds good and British, eh, but the banking was done in Spain (why?))

    my advice is physically go and check UK Relations office, that's first. second considera local firm i.e. solicitors or some such. someone you can visit easoily to check progress.

    regards, good luck, jelly47
  • If you want to use a company check out the Guardian website which lists a number of endowment claims handlers.
    Never heard of UK relations so assume they are new/small/part time also 25% is way too much for this service do not pay more than 15% including VAT or you can do it yourself.

    Solicitors tend to be more expensive than average as they will tell you they bring 'legal expertise' to your case, in reality only one in a hundred cases ever gets anywhere near needing this so called 'expertise' so you are paying for an unnecessary level of service
  • thanks good advise
