PPI Reclaiming Discussion part 4

The card was taken out July 2008 through to date.
How would you proceed now...just accept their offer or go down the small claims court for compensation re misselling? (sorry on reading the letter again they agree to pay 8% on any intrest assuming i was in credit, which, seeings its a credit card that has £1000 on it I wouldnt be entitled to this)
Your best chance here is to post the redress they have given you here

Someone will work this out for you to make sure they have given you the correct redress.
Then i would put a complaint into the bank for the charges that were put on your card and put you in financial strife.
You could ring the card company and maybe do this over the phone.0 -

Thanks, what I meant to say was that I have already claimed back from MBNA, Santander etc through a long process. My one Halifax phone call seems to be a bit 'too easy'. I was wondering if anyone else had any dealings with Halifax post the court ruling. They didn't even ask me to fill out an FOS questionnaire just asked for details of mis-sell over the phone.0 -

Same for me. Called them up and a nice gentleman took details over the phone, did this a few weeks ago! given a reference number and told that I will be receiving notification within the next 5 days! which was received a few days later to give them credit, the basic letter saying soryy you're unhappy blah, blah we're looking into it and will come back within the 16 weeks period!.....so yes, it does work with only a phone call, but obviously not received any upheld or no!
Good luck with yours!Long Hauler No: 51

Hi everyone,
I made a complaint to IF on 26-05-2011.
Today I have received a not upheld letter.
The letter says
'Dear mr........
Blah blah
As part of my review, I have considered whether you were eligible for the policy, whether the policy was suitable for you and whether we provided appropriate information to you in relation to your PPI policy when you took it out. I have also taken into account each of the concerns you raised with us in your complaint. Having completed all of these steps, I also looked at your complaint as a whole to ensure that we acted fairly towards you in relation to the sale of your PPI policy, taking into account any other relevant circumstances or information that may be available.
As a result of this review, I am satisfied that there were no issues with the sale of the PPI attached to your personal loan.'
The letter goes on to say if they do not hear from my husband they will close the complaint and consider it resolved.
Fair enough, they have done a thorough investigation. So why did they fail to see that as a self employed business owner he would be paid when he was sick or had an accident.
Any help?

Hi Guys
Can someone explain the following offer from Lloyds I recieved the other day. It related to my credit card ppi, which still has an outstanding balance of £1100. I took the card out in 2008 and have never cleared the full balance outright.
"If the consumer agrees to cancellation of the PPI the financial business should:
a) reconstruct the account by removing any premiums in respect of the PPI and any interest or charges in respect of those premiums;
b) if that produces a credit balance for any period, credit interest on that balance for that period at 8% simple per year; and
c) send the customer a statement showing the resulting balance on the account (with details of how it was calculated)."
i thought irrespective of whether i have been in credit they would need to work out 8% interest on the ppi premium from the start of the policy
is that not correct?0
