    Hmm well..

    I'd that were in place when I took out my loans I'd have definitely not taken PPI, because it wouldn't been offered and it wouldn't have occurred to me.

    I wonder how many people will end up losing their homes as a result of the "consumer protection".

    Are banks banned from selling PPI at the point of selling credit or are they just not allowed to bring it up?

    If you take out a loan and ask for PPI will the bank say 'sorry we can't give you that right now?'
