    your monthly ppi would roughy be as follows

    1200 + 325 + 75 = £1600
    then you take 325 as a percentage of 1600
    325/1600 x 100 = 20.3%

    then 20.3% of your monthly premium is approx what your ppi element is

    20.3% of £110.38 = £22.41 approx

    cheers
    I'm proud to say that the banks no longer take money from me after becoming debt free

    the 8% is not as simple as just adding 8% to each payment

    the way you need ot do it is as follows

    0.08 x 22.41 = £1.79

    so 18 months ago its 18/12 = 1.5 years,

    1.5 years x £1.79 = 1.5 X 1.79 = £2.68 that is what the 8% would be on a months premium that was paid 18 months ago.

    you then need to apply this formula to each and every premium

    i have doen this for you and based on the 18 payments made so far the 8% would be approx £25.54

    if the loan ran its term it would go up to approx £44.82 for 24 month loan

    i hope this helps

    cheers
