    Hi there
    You pursue the one's that set up and sold you the policy in first instance, if mis sold, as they were the one's responsible.

    If though the business were not regulated and they do not resolve your complaint, then you can consider going the underwriter/insurer avenue. The FOS have suggested this direction to many in the same position.

    Do you still have the address details of Avco Trust?

  • avco were bought out by the associates and they in turn were bought out by city financial.
