    Hi dazjam, first of all well done.....:beer:

    I would ask them to also send you a full detailed written breakdown, they should send you this on request, how long have they given you to accept the offer or not?

    The £249 would be what you had paid in actual PPI perhaps and the rest of the PPI used to reduce the balance owing and a new agreement drawn up to refelct. The £1400 that you had paid in would be loan repayments and PPI repayments also I would think.
