PPI Reclaiming discussion Part III
Options
Comments
-
Morning all, quick question, sure it’s been asked somewhere, but I can’t find it in the 200 pages of this thread!
My girlfriend recently rang up her loan provider (egg) after reading about reclaiming PPI on this website (she is 100% sure she stated she did not wish for PPI when starting the loan). After simply mentioning PPI on the call she was quickly offered hundreds back. This was without even threatening any action which made her think that the bank could be trying to get away on the cheap.
The loan she has is one in which they add everything up at the start (interest etc) and then you just keep chipping away at this. As a result I’m assuming the insurance has been added on for the life of the loan, as has the associated interest.
Will she get all of this back?
What exactly should she be asking for when she writes to them? My technical terminology is not too good and the templates I’ve seen on this website don’t mention this type of loan.
Thanks
Ian
Hi Ian
Wow that is great news.:T :beer: :j
Okay hun how long ago was this?
So no letter was required then I take it?
I would now write to them and request a copy of a written breakdown of calculations, just to make sure all is paid back, plus interest, and 8% stat interest.
Basically if mis sold this should be put back right as if PPI were never taken, so every penny of that should be paid back as said with interest and 8% stat interest of what a court would award.
I would defo put this in writing and sent by recorded delivery, this is the proof in case they deny receiving this request.;)
Just to double check here, what letter do you now require?
I note you mention this - did you still want to put in a reclaim - complaint letter then?
In the letter about requesting for the calculations, I would just write something like.
"Due to our phone call conversation that taken place on XX/XX/XXXX, you confirm that I will receive a refund of the Payment Protection Insurance that was added to my loan.
I would appreciate it if you could send me a copy of the calculations in hardcopy through the post for my records.
I will also be very grateful if you could possibly provide these within the following 7 days as from this letter.
(as you know the acc number must be added to the letter - do not disclose on here).;)
If its a reclaim letter to complain then its here:

Check it out, there is some useful PPI info and a letter template, obviously own reasons to be added and they have 8 weeks to respond, post as always by recorded delivery. Good luck.
Although it seems they have already admitted to this but at least a letter proves all.
All the best and well done on a good result.:T :beer:

Hi,
I've just had a reply from my first letter saying that they are in the worng having missold my policy. They said that because I had stated in my conversations with them that I only wanted the loan for 2 years that they should not have sold me this policy.
They have offered me the nearly £11k as a settlement.
Now I want to know,
1. Was the interest I was paying on my loan just covering the PPI?
2. Can I reclaim the arrangment fee for a missold product?
At the end of the day I took out a £30k loan, and ended up paying £43k to settle plus 20 months @ £350 per month. That £50k! even with the rebate that still cost £39k does this sound right?
Is it worth fighting on or should I just take the money and clear my credit card debts and have a happy christmas?0 -

I told you you could do it though... I feel so glad for you here but feel you could perhaps negotiate some more.? Will take a look in a little while and get back but its definately a start. Well done..0 -
hi

Hi there hun
Yes do these reclaim complaints separately, here is the link for the PPI, template on link as well
http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/ppi-loan-insurance
Check the above PPI link out, you will also find a useful letter template but use your own reasons, they have 8 weeks to respond, post by recorded delivery, another letter maybe required until they suggest the Financial Ombudsman service, if unsuccessful you can then complain to the FOS, let us know the outcome and we will guide you from there, good luck.;)
Here is the link to reclaim charges, although I have not checked it out, but the same rule stands for 8 weeks for them to respond, the same procedures as above more or less but just a separate letter for both, good luck.;)
http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/credit-card-charges
Keep us posted hun and keep at them, do not let any let down letters you may receive put you off.

Cut a long story short after nearly 1 year Royal Bank of Scotland are going to refund my PPI at 8% per annum the loan has now finished. Could some one please do a calculation for me its a case of the A, B, C way working out the amount as i have seen others post about,
Loan-£5500
PPI-1488.14
Total of loan-£6988.14
Intrest-£2341.86
Total to pay- £9330.00
APR-12.7%
60 monthly payments-£155.50
It has been worth the wait and the battle but would just like to know how much they should be paying out, Many thanks go to this forum and all the help that it gives to joe public !
FOB have said i should get my refund in about 6-8 weeks !
Anybody ??????????0 -
The wording is:
"Paying a single premium for your policy does not constitue a mis-sale if insurance; it is ismply an alternative method of paying the preium. However having reviewed the sale I am not satisifed with the recommendation made by our customer Account Manager. During the call,you informed us that you looking to settle the loan within 2 years. Taking this into consideration the policy was not suitable due to the non proportionate rebate provided.
This is well below the acceptable standards expected and it has been raised with the individual concerned. Due to the seriousness of this incident, the individual may face disciplinary procedure and as such I am sure you appreciate I can comment no futher. As a company that prides itself on world class service, I am at a loss to explain this unusual lapse in service standards and can only put it down to human error.
In light of my findings, we would like offer a full rebate of your premium (£10,815) less the rebate you received when your loan was settled earlier this year (NB..there was no rebate) As the broker, we are unaware of the rebate provided by the lender; please could you provide this information at your earliest opportunity to enable me to calculate our offer.
Please accept this letter as our final response regarding your complaint. If you are not fully satisfied with our final response, you are entitled to refer your complaint to FOS....."
Is it worth pursuing? Or should I take the money and run?
To anyone who is reading: write the letters they cost nothing...follow some sage advice here and get back the money that's rightfully yours!0 -
Hi Di, thanks for that i am new so im abit confused, so do i sent the PPI letter to Barclays as it was them that it was through, sorry for sounding dumb. Sez
Hiya hunni
Nah your not sounding dumb, we have all been there.;)
Yes it will be Barclays you write to then, now I will add some addresses for you, however, I feel the Credit Card charges would be the refund address at the bottom, and if someone can confirm on here about the PPI, it should be one of these addresses below.;)
