Surrendering Insurance Policy

    'Lo folks, mother dearest is considering surrendering a couple of insurance policies which she's had for a good few years now, but they still have another 8 years before they pay out.

    She's contacted the company (Royal Liver) about this and they sent out a form listing her options. One of the options on the sheet is the ability to "sell the policy for more than it's surrender value". Apparently there are "special policy purchasing companies" and "specialist dealers" who pay for them.

    Arsed if I know of any such company. So, question is; can anyone recommend any good companies who do the above?

    Cheers :)

    A lot of these are scumbags. Be p[repared to haggle hard if the policy is

    a) over half way
    b) especially if within 5 years of maturity

    They rely on your not knowing its worth while they do
