    Hi and welcome.

    How annoying for you, they told you that you did not have insurance, and yet your paying for it!

    If you still don't want this, as it seems like you missed out on this anyway, write to them and try to reclaim on this.
    You will find some useful info with guidelines of reclaiming on the link below, a checklist of mis selling reasons, in case anything else applies to you and template letters.

    Post by recorded delivery, this is your proof of posting, keep at them, and good luck.
    Please just yell if you require any help.;)

  • thanks for the advice, so its best just trying to reclaim the insurance, been looking in to HFC I'm amazed by the amount of compliants, and the fines....
  • Hi

    When was your HFC agreement if you dont mind me asking, my husband took a similar agreement out with them and the rates etc were sky high and pretty sure he was PPI'd without asking too but this was from 1999 so a long shot really. Would never ever deal with them again.
