Neil, how does it work with signing up heirs? For example what happens if you sign up one heir and your rivals sign a different  heir? Or if there are 11 heirs you get 6 and your rivals get 5. Great programme but that doesn't seem to have been explained.

Thanks
Peter

In an Heir Hunters programme recently, it considered payments from One Penny per Week insurance policies.
Is there a website where this sort of info. could be checked?

For anyone outside the UK there's just one full episode of the UK version of Heir Hunters on You Tube. You can view it here:-
