When you started the policy, you would have been given a target amount your investment needed to reach to pay off your mortgage.
If you have been warned the policy may not reach its target or there was a deficit at the end, you have suffered a shortfall.
In simple terms, endowment compensation is calculated by looking at the financial situation the policy has put you in, compared to that of a capital repayment mortgage which would have better suited you.
If you have suffered a shortfall, it is highly likely you would have been better off with a standard repayment mortgage and therefore due compensation.

It does not matter if your policy is surrendered or has matured.
Regardless of whether your endowment is still in force, if you have suffered financially because of the policy, you can make a complaint.Is your endowment provider no longer in business? No problem.
As long as your policy was taken out after August 1988 then it is covered under the FSCS (Financial Services Compensation Scheme). This is a government body set up to deal with financial claims for providers regulated by the FCA and are no longer trading or are in default.Not all cases are time barred.
You may have heard that endowment cases can be time barred and therefore you are unable to make a complaint. Whilst this may be true in some cases, a certain set of criteria has to be met before an insurer is able to dismiss a complaint on those grounds.You do not need to use a CMC to make a complaint to a lender or other compensation scheme, such as the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). If your complaint is not successful you can refer it to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) yourself fee free.
