Hambro Countrywide

I have just successfully claimed for part of my mortgage protection 1992 - 1995 & 1997 - 2004 - all with the Halifax :jhowever the 1995 - 1997 period of time the Halifax are telling me that they didn't sell me the policy Hambro Guardian did - I'm positive that they are wrong as there would have been no reason to go elsewhere when the mortgage was being provided by Halifax still - should I go to the Ombudsman or chase Hambro Countrywide (now I believe Countrywide Group - there is nothing on their site about PPI claims that I could see).
Any advice gratefully appreciated - don't want to waste time sending it to the wrong place.

    It was back in 1995 - I genuinely can't remember but I don't think so. Looking back at the paperwork it even says it has an original commencement date of 06/05/92 - which is the stuff they have paid out for! Confused.com. I may just send it to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme and let them work it out!
