Absolute Claims Ltd

Had a phone call from the above company offering to claim the PPI back on my credit card. This was back in May. Cost to me was £195.00, although they insisted the service was free.

Had a letter last week stating that the company was experiencing difficulties and may have to "Cease Trading".

Just discovered that you cannot contact them by phone and their website is unreachable.:mad:

Any advice would be much appreciated as to what course of action to take; if any.


Thanks
