    Hi everyone,

    Nassie has rang A&L this morning and someone should look at her claim today, if not tomorrow at the latest and she should get a response on Friday.

    I have told her not to hold her breath as we have heard this all before

    I have got a feeling we are going to have to go to the FOS on this one.

    Let's hope I am wrong

    READY FOR A LAUGH? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:FLA responds to the announcement of the OFT's High Cost Credit Review
    Last Updated: 2 July, 2009

    Commenting on the OFT’s High Cost Credit Review, Fiona Hoyle, Head of Consumer Finance at the Finance and Leasing Association, said:

    “We are surprised that the OFT’s High Cost Credit Review includes the second charge mortgage market. This follows a cross-Government review in 2008, which gave the market a clean bill of health. Since that time there has been a 90% reduction in lending in this market due to a lack of wholesale funding and lenders cannot meet the demand from consumers. The OFT should be focusing on tackling the sectors that present real problems to consumers; this is not one of them.”
    :mad::mad::mad: so the secured lenders have a clean bill of health? mine and others were high cost credit, dont we count?:mad::mad: obviously not:p:p:p:p:p

    Yeah, I saw this one. This is from the complaints website isn't it. I think that their site is more to do with interest rates than PPi from when I joined it some time ago. Also (and I may get slated for this!!:eek:) I once had a fixed rate mortgage and when interest rates went down mine did not and I complained:rolleyes:. I was then told that if i wanted them to go down I had to pay for the privelege and take out a tracker etc. I have had to pay £2000 just to swap to another with my mortgage company now. It swings in roundabouts really. Whilst i do understand the frustrations of BOE rate going down and firstplus not putting theirs down you would only get this on a tracker mortgage which nowadays cost an arm and a leg and can be as much as £5K arrangement. I do think that their rates are OTT though and they did the same with ours. It was mostly after ringing them to ask for a settlement figure (well everytime i did really going by the SAR). I do hope they get their justice with them and interest rates. I really do.

    Hi all. Have received a letter from Ace catalogues this morning about the ppi reclaim. They say that i was offered as an optional service on a non-advised basis on 1st oct 2005 following a phone call to place an order.A copy of t&c's is sent by post, detailing the cancelation rights and that it was up yo me to read to determine whether the policy was suitable for me. I have Rheumatoid arthritis since 2001 so i would not have taken out the policy knowing that there were exclusions on pre existing conditions. I also cancelled this policy in february 2008 when I realised what I was paying for. Can I carry on claiming as they are now tilling me that i can send my complaint to the FOS
