London General Holdings Limited

Options
Does anyone know if London General Holdings Limited is still in existence? If so does anyone have a current address.

The one I used from my paperwork was as follows:

London General Holdings Limited
Combined House
15 Wheatfield Way
Kingston-Upon-Thames
Surrey KT1 2PA

Submitted a PPI claim to them nearly 8 weeks ago and have not yet had a reply.

    They don't seem to have a website which is often a bad sign.

    I found the below on a company check website and companies house does list them (company no. SC070087 - London & General Holdings) and doesn't mark them as dissolved but the accounts say they are dormant - maybe someone with better knowledge and access can tell you if they are still active and trading.

    They are listed with a Registered Office as per below in Scotland so maybe that is a better place to try

    206 ST VINCENT STREET
    GLASGOW
    G2 5SG

    Seems you sent it to their Trading Address


    COMBINED HOUSE,
    15 WHEATFIELD WAY,
    KINGSTON UPON THAMES,
    SURREY,
    KT1 2PA

    Did you send it signed for delivery / have POD?

    As noted above, the company London & General Holdings Ltd still exists; it basically has a property subsidiary that appears insolvent on paper, but are you sure that's the company you're after?

    London General Holdings Limited (no ampersand) was a different company, No. 01883565; now known as TWG Services Limited; basic activity - insurance agents and brokers. And they are/were on the FCA register.

    Address:

    INTEGRA HOUSE FLOOR 2
    VICARAGE ROAD
    EGHAM
    SURREY
    TW20 9JZ

    I just went off the address they provided in the OP and Companies House suggested it was London & General but you are probably right there - OP, do you have any documentation confirming the correct name as you will need to ensure the complaint goes to the right place!

    Nasqueron - Yes I have some original paperwork with the address I listed in the first post on it. Trying to find some means to attach it here, but not sure how.

    You would need to scan/photograph it and upload it to somewhere like photobucket or tinypic and post a link - you may need to do it in the format hxxp:// as a new user cannot post links.

    You could also reply here with details of your PPI complaint - what you complained out and what evidence you have :)

    Would suggest resending your complaint to the Glasgow office and sending it RM Signed For once people have had a look at your letters

    The address listed in the OP is Combined House because it was the HQ of the Combined Insurance Company of America.

    That address has cropped up before in conjunction with potential PPI complaints - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=54885725&postcount=10

    I think that the company you are looking for is indeed now known as TWG Services Ltd, one of whose previous addresses included Wheatfield Way.
