PPI credit card - what now?

Hi

CAn you help? I managed to get PPI removed from my account in december and they happily refunded one months payment.

However, when i pointed out that i had no idea i was paying for it, they said i must have known as i got the card via online application.

The application was made for a standard card account over 7 years ago. They changed it to a Platinum account after 1 year as i was 'a valued customer'

Having complained, they basically said i must have been ignorant to not notice id asked for cover. I have written to complain but heard nothing.

Should i try again?
:confused:

    Hi, was this applied to both cards then? Also was it an online application and then how was it changed over the platinum? Did you have to sign a new agreement?
