PPI recovery agencies

I have just had an argument with an Agent who called me stupid for not wanting to claim MPPI, I don't believe it was miss sold as it wasn't from the lender it was advice from the estate agents based on the job I had At the time, which was flexible and potential for injury was high. I took advice from external sources and sort the best policy. Now the question is was the reclaims agent cross as I wasn't going to earn them any commission or was I advised badly to start with?

Thanks

    The claims agent is an idiot who wants to convince you that he can get you money back so he can take some of it. They very rarely believe me when I say I have nothing to reclaim either, even after I explain that my brother was a financial advisor and a very good one at that.

    Ignore them. If you are happy with the product you have and feel it suits you, then why should you give a damn what any cold caller thinks of you? However, if your job has changed, perhaps you should review your policy.

    An unqualified, virtually unregulated sales rep paid for getting people to complain tells you that you are an idiot for not putting in a fraudulent complaint. What do you think?
