It certainly can be done, because we did it with two endowments, one sold to us in 1984 and another in 1985 by a building society. The building society concerned were not interested and rejected the claims, so we had to take it to the Ombudsman who found in our favour.
Even if an endowment was sold prior to the 1986, the person or organisation that sold it had a 'duty of care'. They never explained to us that the endowment might not pay out - we were just told that the endowments would cover the mortgage and provide an additional lump sum.
So do not give up - it is possible.
