It's not 8 years. Those who claimed in 2007 and their case was on hold with the bank can go back 6 years and beyond, ie claim acknowledged July 2007 so they can start from 2001, however, claim acknowledged 2009, then its 2003(statute of limitations act).

Slightly related question..

What's the Scottish limit? is it 5 years? I keep forgetting,
I want to get the letter in the post for first thing Monday morning but can't remember the Scottish Time limit..

Also does it start when you send the first reclaim letter or when you asked for the statements? I've had a 2 month delay in getting my statements!

I haven't watched it but did he maybe say "claims going back eight years", meaning there are claims going back 8 years, not you can claim for eight years, so people who claimed in 2007 went back to 2001, which is now 8 years ago, well I know what I mean !!!
