Well done to all winners!
I have had a cheque through from Halifax for £637.37
Refunds of premiums £300.83
Refund of interest at 9.9% £84.66
Interest 8% calculated up untill 02 November £287.37
Please note that this interest payment constitutes taxable income and needs to be discussed with your tax office or advisor to determine if any tax is due. Now can anyone tell me if i need to pay tax on this and if so how much would i need to pay. Thanks in advance xx0 -

Well Done............... :beer:
If you work & earn less than 39k and/or the ppi redress (8%) wont push you over this, you will need to pay 20% on the 8% interest only (£57.48) this can be made over the phone by adjusting your tax code or by a self assesment form at the end of the year. If you earn over 39K and you have a elite tax code you can avoid paying this, PM me for details.:D:p Perfer et obdurai dolor hic tibi proderit olim

Greetings and Salutations!
Long time reader, first time writer.
First of all want to say thanks for all the supporting messages, giving people like me the hope to do these things ourselves and get back what it rightfully due.
Was just wondering about peoples experiences in terms of actually being paid back their settlement, once they agree to it.
To give a very brief overview, I made me initial claim for my PPI back in May this year for a loan (my only one ever!). I used RBS’s own service. I never received a notification or anything to this effect. I called again asking for confirmation to be sent, which once again never was.
I then counted the 16 weeks, called to be told that according to their paperwork, they received my complaint in June not May and I still had some time to go. I called back again refuting this and mysteriously, I was told cryptically that a letter has been sent and that I would like it.
An offer was made, I accepted and this was sent back and received (checking with 3 phonecalls) on 28th September. I have now been told that I will have to wait 28 working days to have this sent to me. Am I missing something here? I was even told that this is no guarantee and that I may have to wait even longer.
I have no arrears on my account so the full sum will be due, but I am intrigued to know why this takes so blooming long and anyone else’s experiences with RBS. I am very tempted to stop paying my last few payments on my loan and advising them that if they want the money, then take it from what is owed. I wonder if the 28 working days would suddenly disappear. I am not even sure if anything can be done in this instance. Just needing to vent and wondering if there is anyone in a similar predicament.0 -
