Di, as regards commissions, were there any mentioned in your SAR request. I KNOW that Firstplus added our PPI (just like you above) and it was the same thing as you, the application with no ppi and then the agreement with typed in ppi, added months BUT also I SAR'd Firstplus and the only commission I can see paid over to the broker (according to them) was £850 which is 5% of the LOAN and nothing on the PPI side of things.
FOS DO KNOW they are getting away with this and also the FSA and OFT etc all allow it. They are now playing the game of "we know they did wrong" but PROVE it..... so wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

Here is the email received from the adjudicator on Friday and asked us to provide concrete evidence of Click Finance not providing the PPI.Dear
I have spoken to HFC this morning in an attempt to speed up the process as promised. I explained that you felt that they were involved in the sale of the PPI policy and maybe responsible for that sale.
HFC explained to me that this was not the case and the loan and PPI were arranged on the same date by Click Finance. This is evidenced by the fact that the broker was paid commission for the sale of the insurance.
Therefore in light of these submissions, I would need some concrete evidence from you and Mrs ***** to show that it was not Click Finance that sold you the PPI policy.
I look forward to hearing from you by 30 June 2011.
Yours sincerely

Checking on the application form there is a part before we sign which asks if we are required to pay any fee in support of this application and there is a manual cross for no.
Going through SAR stuff underwriters paperwork there is a list of figures and Brokers commission of a thousand odd.
Even though I cannot recall on this being discussed, but can recall on being told we don't pay anything.
The HFC address is also Endeavours address now and that is the address Endeavour wrote back with.
Yet when we taken out the loan with Endeavour it was the address in Bracknel.
And the address on the Click Application form is:
Vicotoria House, 23-27 South Street, Farnham, Surrey, GU9 7QU
Click Finance Ltd (04239176) Registered in England Bridge House, South Street, Farnham, Surrey, GU9 7RS licenced Credit Brokers.
different postal code on the registered adddress.
On the HFC paperwork this is a Customer services Speak with form, we have the name of the one who spoke to us (and i am aware she is still working for them during a research i have done) she has her profile as HFC Underwriter.
This is the copy of the form that both me and hubby have one each, where they asked questions and also states on the form is to contact them if they can help us anyway for additional funds.
This is HFC Bank Ltd/UK/Household.
The first address you wrote for Hamilton is the address we have on the policy details.The one and only "Dizzy Di"0 -
I know the story here Di. Endeavour (the lender) will say that just after you filled in the application you had a phone call or something like that and you then agreed to the sale of the PPI blah blah blah...... WE KNOW who sold the PPI Di and it was not Click, It was endeavour/hfc and it seems that Endeavour are a wholly owned subsidiary of HFC (just like Firstplus were to Woolwich) and in LAW makes them seperate entities. (This was one of my problems when I wanted Barclays (or the Woolwich of which I did not try) to take responsibility for Firstplus. They are part of Barclays for some things but where legal things are concerned they are entirely seperate. I have just found this though and if you read the disadvantages of the parent subsidiary relationship and the DUTY business (although do not understand it fully so going to look into this more) there is a time when they can be held responsible for the subsidiary's liabilities.Marshallka

http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Wholly+owned+subsidiary
Corporations also create subsidiaries for the specific purpose of limiting their liability in connection with a risky new business. The parent and subsidiary remain separate legal entities, and the obligations of one are separate from those of the other. Nevertheless, if a subsidiary becomes financially insecure, the parent corporation is often sued by creditors. In some instances courts will hold the parent corporation liable, but generally the separation of corporate identities immunizes the parent corporation from financial responsibility for the subsidiary's liabilities.
One disadvantage of the parent-subsidiary relationship is the possibility of multiple taxation. Another is the duty of the parent corporation to promote the subsidiary's corporate interests, to act in its best interest, and to maintain a separate corporate identity. If the parent fails to meet these requirements, the courts will perceive the subsidiary as merely a business conduit for the parent, and the two corporations will be viewed as one entity for liability purposes.
