    • your salesperson stated / implied that taking out the policy would assist my credit application.
    • your salesperson was very pushy in selling me the policy so that I felt I could not say no.
    this is the reasons i put in my letter. so how long do you think it will take for me to hear anything?

    I guess some time time as they would need to do an investigation and get a statement from the adviser - , check what paperwork was sent to you ect

    but they should at least acknowledge receipt of your complaint, 5 days usually

    well it was 5 years ago when i took out the loan so how would they go about it if the advisor no longer works for HSBC?
