Illness and Payment Protection Insurance

Hiya, I don't know if anyone can help, but I was off work sick for 12 weeks earlier this year. Now, at the time I wasn't well enough to do anything about it, but I know I have PPI on my loan, what can I do about this.

If it helps its with RBS.

Thanks

Sal

  • Contact them and make a claim.
    I don't know if there is a time limit for when a sickness claim can be made but you won't get anything unless you try.
    You will have a good chance of success provided there were no pre conditions or symptons of your illness before you signed up for the loan.

    You need to read your policy documents. The company may state that you need to inform them as soon as you become ill or within a certain amount of weeks of becoming ill. I know some phi policies have such clause.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.
