    Cardif Pinnacle did accident policies and hospitalisation policies for ages 65 to 74 that was payable by Single premium.

    it was typically done through brokers who sold loans through some of the dodgy subprime lenders. as it was providing a monthly benefit it was considered a type of PPI.

    heres a bit copied and pasted from policy in 2002. if sold correctly it may not be mis-sold, although it now may not been deemed appropriate to sell insurance to a 74 yr old.

    roonaldo, that is a dire product. The sort of product that the seller ought to refund in 99% of cases.
