Do you think I can reclaim PPI?

Options
Hi all,

First off I have held a Lloyds Bank current account for 33 years. I think it was called Club Lloyds at the time, the Bank said I could only have this account and no other. It came with a Credit Card and an Overdraft for a Monthly fee, so anyway as I was ineligible for the other Current Accounts I taken it out. 10 years later they took the Credit Card off me because it never got used. Around 2007 I got fed up of them charging me for not using any benefits so I went into my Local Branch and they changed the account into a Classic Account (which I still hold).

Furthermore, I took a loan out with Abbey National (Before it was Santander) for £7,500 and repayments included £7,500 interest. Which is ridiculous.

Could I claim any of this back as I think it was PPI.

Thanks.

    None of that sounds like PPI.

    Eleven years on, I suspect the Bank would be able to impose a timebar on any complaint about this old packaged account. Why didn't you complain at the time you cancelled the paid account?

    You agreed (and paid) to this loan at that rate of interest. You won't now be getting a refund of it how ever "ridiculous" it was. Do you have documentation showing this was the interest?

    Interest is not PPI.

    Interest on a loan is the norm, it is not ridiculous.

    What exactly do you believe to be payment protection insurance?

    Nothing you have typed sounds like PPI was being paid.

    Nothing sounding ridiculous there. You pay interest on money you borrow.

    You're talking about bank account charges, not PPI. Suggest you look them up
