You can claim if you feel you have been mis sold and can state the reasons but they will probably clear some of their debt. You could perhaps look at thr angle that because of the PPI this loan went to debt management. I do not know your c ircumstances but even if they reduced this debt then surely this would be a bonus. Good luck:mad:0 -

Hi there and welcome
That is correct with what Maxdp have said, if within DMP and there are arrears owing then its normally refunded towards this account, however if upheld in your favour, I believe some of the interest, such as Simple interest and 8% interest of what a court would award for being deprived of your money would be refunded directly to you, this can add up.
So realistically the same time its reducing the debt and you should get some in your pocket as well.;)
I would like to point out though, many argue the fact that being mis sold the PPI has added and worsened the debt, and believe the refund should be fully awarded directly to them, but not sure if anyone have been successful in arguing the case.
For more on reclaiming, check the guidelines of reclaiming here:

You will come across template letters to help you through this, and a checklist of mis selling reasons, they have 8 weeks in full to respond, keep at them.
You write to the ones who set your loan up from the start, even though its moved on to a DMP you still write to the ones responsible for selling this to you.
I understand anyway that the PPI will now be worthless to you now being on DMP, so worth mentioning that in your letter as well.
Do not worry about writing down the amounts though, you can request for these if they do not send the detailed breakdown if successful.
Good luck and please keep us posted.;)The one and only "Dizzy Di"0 -

Hi Geoff
Good luck with this then, as I also said in my post, with you not requiring this PPI product now as well, its worthless to you now and you don't want this added to the debt, so worth giving it a shot and on the grounds of your reclaiming for being mis sold, good luck.:beer:The one and only "Dizzy Di"0
