Pre 1988 Endowment Shortfall
zilch
Posts: 1 Newbie
I have a 'with profits' endowment started in June 1986.
No adviser was used and it was purchased direct from the insurance company. Although an 'illustration' was provided the risks involved were not explained by the company.
It was replaced by a repayment mortgage in 1997.
I have continued paying the premium and it terminates in 2011.
I would be interested in any advice.

You have no avenue to complain as you didnt seek advice. It wasnt the job of NU to tell you the risks. So that option is closed.
NU arent a bad provider on the with profits front and their "upto £5000" endowment promise on maturity could close the gap. Plus you may be entitled to the orphan asset dispersal which is pencilled in for 2008.
What sort of advice do you want?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.0 -
