Welcome Finance Admistration query

I have just had a phone call from a lady to advise my husband that Welcome have gone into administration. She asked me to get him to call her back as he's at work & can not accept personal calls during work hours. She said that due to some technicality (can't remember the phrase she used) that Welcome have to repay customers who have been over charged.... it was all rather confusing & am wondering how true it is - has anybody else had a phone call like this? I am not sure if she was one of these people who phone up saying you can reclaim you PPI on loans or if she was actually to do with Welcome - advice, please!!:think:

    It will be from some sort of claims company, hinting that they are from Welcome.

    You could phone Welcome - not the number she gave you.
