    Hi There
    I do not know of this company, but if unsure contact the Claims management/ministry of justice (MOJ) to have them checked out.

    How long ago did this happen?

    Maybe its not too late, try cancelling, and of course as you know this can be done all free where your friend will get to keep all the refund on success, by just completing the reclaim questionnaire as on step 3 below, there's less paperwork to deal with this way to what I am aware of, just remember to keep copies, good luck.
