Stonebridge Insurance Accidental Death Plan through the Alliance & Leicester

I took out this plan in 2001 and I am not sure how I was sold it. It must have been when I took out a current account with the Alliance & Leicester. It was free for the first 2 months. It was only whilst I was speaking to a friend that pays £2 a month (and has been for a similar length of time) that got me thinking that my original outlay of £8.59 was very hefty and this has been creeping up steadily until the most recent increase to £10.10. I can see on here that Stonebridge was pulled for miss selling at one point but not for the year I was sold this insurance. Would anyone know anything about these plans through the Alliance & Leicester?

Accidental death isn't normally the most useful of policies, despite being low cost.
If I were you, I would cancel it and consider what cover you really need.0 -

The provider is not liable for sales made through third parties.Would anyone know anything about these plans through the Alliance & Leicester?Most of the banks were selling this type of plan in the mid 90s to early 2000s. They are pretty rubbish most of the time.
