Endowment - Complain to whom ?

I was sold an endowment by a financial adviser employed by the estate agent where I purchased my flat. Can anyone advise if I should complain about the mis-selling to the estate agent or direct to the endowment company, Scottish Provident ?

I did try asking the FSA Helpline but the guy there didn’t seem too sure.

Thks,

A

    You complain to the advice company. If the financial advisor was a tied rep of scottish provident you would complain to them. If he was an indepedent, you complain to him.
    I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.

    Ask Scottish Provident.They will know if it's one for them or one for the estate agent.
    Trying to keep it simple...;)
