    The thing is this could have been sorted out years ago when Equitable closed to new business and a series of enquiries laid at least part of the blame at the government's door. At that time the finances were ok and thousands of equitable life anuitants would not have died still waiting for the government to accept blame.

    But where does it end? If we were all entitled to compensation for government regulatory failures, we would all receive thousands.
  • how do you find out if you are one of the eligible ones, and how much compensation you will get?
