PPI`s the Royal Bank OF Scotland section 78

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice. I have requested my terms and conditions of my bank account to check for PPI. They have sent me a letter saying that as i have been bankrupt but am now discharged. The sum is now due to the RBS under the terms of the judgment rather than the CCA agreement. Therefore the bank is no longer obliged to provide me with the information required. Is this right or are they just trying to put me off claiming !!!

    Your best bet here is to send a Subject Access Request under Section 7 of Data Protection Act 1998

    That way, if they hold it they cannot refuse to supply it to you

    Congratulations to all who have got their PPI back!

    They are correct. The CCA requirement only applies to debts in force.

    Also, if you make a complaint that is successful and they had written off some of your debt, they can use the redress payment towards the amount written off rather than pay it to you. So, the whole thing may be pointless in your case.
