Dealer Guarantee Plan

I have tried contacting the Dealer Guarantee Plan company but their number no longer exists. So I contacted the dealership who would not give me alternative contact details for them, but instead provided me advice on their behalf.
I stated to the dealership that the Guarantee Policy book clearly states that the Cambelt needs to be changed in line with manufacturers recommendations. So I litterally bought the Guarantee, drove the car off the lot and was void straight away because the cambelt at that point was 25,000 miles out of date. Her response was that my policy is not void and never was void, but reiterated the fact that if I had a problem with the car now it would be void because the Cambelt has not been changed inline with Policy ... eh?
Was I mis-sold. I was spun the 'FULL service history' spiel and bought a Guarantee Plan that was 20,000 out of date.
PS I am currently still paying this.
