Insurance company want £10 to check

Over the last couple weeks you may have seen BBC'S Watchdog programme about Critical Illness plans.
I have asked Scottish Provident to send me details on what we filled in back in 2004.
They want £10 to do the work.
Yet Legal & General asked for nothing.I may consider leaving and getting another quote but as we are a tadd older,we may have to pay more.In anycase SP may want more once we review the forms.

    Dont be over paranoid about the watchdog article. It was reported in the financial press that the figures used in the programme were presented inaccurately and gave a misleading position.
