can anyone help with a loan ppi question please.

Hi
I hope someone can help answer my question.
I have recently tryed to reclaim the ppi on my loan from lloyds under mis selling - my request was rejected.

Do I have a case????

When i took out loan i worked 16 hrs a week for an employer, had a self employed job and received working tax credit due to being a single parent.
A few months ago i lost my self employed work, but was still in 16 hours a week employment and receiving working tax credit. Losing my main job hit my finances hard. When i tryed to make a claim under my PPI i was told i couldnt as i still work 16 hours a week. So if i cant claim for losing my self employed work, then surely the PPI was not suited to me and it was mis sold???? or do i have this all wrong, please help someone before i lose the plot totally.

    If you were in those circumstances when you took out the loan then the policy was mis-sold.

    However there is more to this issue than just the mis-selling of the ppi or could be. I would need to see the agreement. Was it a personal loan or for a car?
    I am a former Broker, former IFA and former compliance officer, for my sins.

    However, I have since seen the light.

    Hi there
    And yes you do have a case, they have mis sold this to you.

    Do you mind if you copy and paste your post and add in the Reclaiming-discussion thread for PPI, there we will help guide you through this step by step, a letter will have to be sent to them, but if you add in the above thread the links for the templates etc will be sent to you on there.
