Just found this thread on Debt Free Wanabbe - there's a link to a sample letter on The Motley Fool. I'm going to give that a go.

However, I came on this forum and read up about cancelling the PPI, PM'd a few people and got a great template letter (PM me if you would like a copy). I wrote to them last week, and low and behold when I checked my loan balance today I've been credited back the WHOLE insurance amount.
Martin :money: , MSE and all you wonderful people have saved me £5000.
I cannot thank you enough.

Just to comment on a previous posters comment on Halifax wanting to charge an extra £1000 to cancel the insurance.
I too had this happen to me although when I actually worked it out I found that I could also reduce the amount of time the loan was over and still be around £700 better off. (I Cut the loan down from 7 years to 4).Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 297 - Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts0
