IIRC he claimed to be a self-eemployed consultant for Abbeylife...that may be the case but, he was effectively tied into Abbey when I look back at it.
I'm more inclinded to say "Fuggit" and just let it go now as I have plenty of other important issues vying for my limited time - accept that the payout is going to be low and look into other avenues to increase my savings. I was young when the policies were sold to me and rather less financially astute than I am now. |
Abbey did have a self employed sales force mid/late Eighties, they were tied to Abbey and could only sell their policies AIR it was commission only, no basic and a lot of the salesmen i met weren't so bothered about what they sold, if its pre 88 FSA the sale won't have been documented after that it should have been, probably now microfiched, might be worth trying to get a copy of that. ( it was probably a unit linked endowment if I recall correctly.
