Today I'm upset - last night I was infuriated that a company that I had used to make a claim on unfair endownment advice had the nerve to charge me 34% of my payment from the company - especially when they did little else than some paper work. I was so angry. It wasn't a huge amount of money that I got but it was going to be enough to help pay all the bills that are coming up from purchase of our new home. How do these companies have the nerve to do such a thing ? It was probably my fault too for not reading the fine print - but I was still amazed that they could charge so much. My advice to any of you seeking compensation for a mis-sold endownment is to see an independant financial advise and always check out the costs.
