Hi
I took out Mortgage Protection on the basis that it covered myself & my Brother if we had taken ill & was unable to work. However, I have just discovered thst it only covers critical illness cover. Am I able to claim this was mis-sold?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

So you took out Critical Illness Cover, but thought it was something else?
No you cannot claim it was mis-sold on that basis, I'm afraid.0 -

What evidence do you have that supports your view that it was income protection?
What evidence do you have that shows it is critical illness cover?
