I just read your post from 1st July laidback . My daughter invested a lump sum of £40,000 with Norwich Union after her father died. When Norwich Union were taken over by Aviva thousands hundreds of thousands of pounds were wasted on a ridiculous celebrity advertising campaign highlighting the name change. The 5year bond made no money at all for my daughter who might as well have pushed the pound notes under her mattress. The financial advisor from Barclays did okay out of it and Aviva enjoyed using It to pay their various celebrity's and managed to make enough to cover their fees !
How do you acknowledge Easter.
