Hello to everyone,
Can anyone help me with this ?
22 years ago me and my wife took out a mortgage, and we were advised to take out Critical illness cover just in case anything went wrong, so we went ahead and took the cover out, in 2006 I had to leave my job through ill health due to arthritis, and I was given ill health retirement officially..
I have been registered Disabled since 1980 and I was just wondering was the bank correct in offering me Critical illness whilst knowing I was already disabled ? because when I eventually finished work they argued that I could not claim for me having to leave work as I had not got a described disease that was critical to my health.
That is it in a nutshell, was I miss sold the policy ? because we have had to pay the full mortgage amount each month since, I was officially retired in 2006 and the policy has still got 5 years to run, it seems very unfair to us as a family,
Many thanks to all that can help, :tinysmile_grin_t:
