Hi people

Thought I would add my voice, just spoken to First Plus agent in customer services. He told me that there is no plan to reduce rates for the forseeable future. When I quiried the BOE/FHBR he said there are other facts to consider as the fall in house prices ??????
How can this be a factor in their 'variable' rate. I have given up hope of any change in interest rate, well apart from an upward one when the rates start rising again 12 months or so down the line.
The only hope for a fall in Interest rate from these robbing bast**rds is goverment intervention.

there is not the option of ignoring it, the lowest donation amount it allows is $2, and then it takes you to the paypal sign in page !

Once you have signed the petition, it then takes you to the donation page. Just close the page down, then when you go back to the petition, your entry will be there. Keep trying!! also, check out the website set up for FP customers - membership is growing steadily as more people become aware of it: firstpluscomplaints.co.uk. There is another petition on this website but it hasn't got as many signatures as the first one yet.

Top tip to all fellow FirstPlus-Vorderman-Pension-Subsidisers.....

Write to your MP.... and get him/her to take up Barclays loan shark activities with Messrs Darling and Brown. A little airtime in the House Of Commons should help Barclays see the error of their ways and get reasonable with their interest rates.

You can find out how to contact your MP via this link http://www.writetothem.com/ - just pop in your postcode, pick your MP (and MEP if your feeling really angry) type your message, spell check and hit send - et voila, you've just let your MP know there is a massive problem with the way Barclays behaves!

I'm going to do it now.... what's stopping you?

Hi All

I am going to join you on the campain against Firstplus. I too have been awaiting a drop in interest rates, but it looks like I souldn't hold my breath.

Just one question. My PPI expired in November 2008 and I claimed back my 'cashback' could I still complain and try to get back the interest I have paid on the nearly £10,000 PPI? I feel we were missold but did not do anything because it was nearing the end of the 5 year period and would be claiming the 'cashback'.

My main gripe is that we applied for a 10 year loan and they sold us
PPI and increased the term to 15year 'for our benefit'!. Hence locking us in to paying interest to them for at least 10years.

Yes you can claim. :-)
