    IFA were not regulated until 2005 so they don't even need to consider your complaint so this will not progress anywhere.

    That said, very little MPPI is miss-sold as it protects your home if you lost your job, only in rare circumstances would it be considered bad to have it such as if the policy would not cover you

    I have sat in a B/S branch to do insurances and the mortgage in the past. Used to be commonplace. Now very rare.

    None whatsoever.

    1) 10 years prior to insurance regulation
    2) its IFA sold. So unlikely to have been missold in the first place (uphold rate on IFAs is low on PPI at around 5%. PPI is not seen as an IFA problem)
    I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.
