Egluntyne Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 A colleague thought she would give it a try and got just short of £2k back. I've no idea whether I am due any? Has anyone else been successful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 My mum received about £1,500 5 years ago from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I've never bothered because I didn't think I'd ever paid for it However, I might have been duped into some small payments by a catalogue over 15 years or so ago, but don't have any paperwork so wouldn't know how to go about claiming anyway. As it was a charge added on to the amount you pay back on what you've bought, I remember settling the bill quickly because I thought it was cheeky of them. I no longer buy from catalogues, I hasten to add Well done to anyone who manages to get something back though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 We claimed and got something right at the beginning. Can't remember how much though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I claimed the PPI back on my one credit card; got a tidy sum and it was painless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PixieDust Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 My OH used to run his own business and he got back just over £10K as he paid ppi on all his business loans. It was illegal to charge him on a business account so he got it all back. However, initially the bank investigated and said he wasn't owed anything. I told him to go to the ombudsman, which he couldn't be bothered to do at first, but a year later several refunds were made to his account. It will take time and you don't need to remember all your account details. The ombudsman will force the banks hand. Don't be fobbed off. Good luck.

gavclojak Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I was told I had paid PPI on car finance many years ago, when I made a claim they told ME no PPI a was paid but I might ask them to look at it again as I'm sure I did pay it.

Cinnamon Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I have no idea if I am due anything back or not either, but would like to know how to find out..... I did get all of the money I paid to CPP (card protection plan) back earlier this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 We had a loan that we paid off a few years ago. Hubby wrote them the standard letter requesting it back as they had told us we couldn't have the loan without the P PI. Got a cheque for £18,000! They have to pay you interest on everything they took off you! To say we were gobsmacked is an understatement! We have now been through our paperwork and written to every company or credit card that we had to pay some form of insurance on. Some I didn't even realise was P PI! Some have been turned down, but have now gone to the ombudsman. Go for it, you have nothing to lose and sometimes quite a lot to gain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
