    Hi there
    No I don't think it works like that, but I have never banked with Barclays, the ppi is nothing to do with that of the bank account, so as long as there are no arrears on the loan accounts, the money should be awarded directly to you.:)
    The one and only "Dizzy Di" :D
  • iv just read that banks can 'offset' debts from one account to another , but its different for ppi because you can reclaim the money directly back what you paid into it

    the only thing the bank can offset is the ppi premiem and the interest

    still confused and barclays customer relations were useless
  • i settled a loan early with lloyds in 2006 they gave me a £400 discount for settling early i was sucessful in reclaiming the ppi i had on the loan last month they gave me the interest via my new bank account with barclays and after deducting the £4oo out of the rest for the early settlement they then sent me a cheque the lloyds account in question had been closed in 2007 so i wouldnt get your hopes up as they told me they got to give the interest but they are allowed to take any money you owe them out of the rest
