in Reclaim PPI & other insurance
Hi, hoping i'm in the right section here!

I got a car loan with vaxhall and had PPI with the loan, but I dont know who I am meant to send a claim to?

Do I send it to Vaxhall Finance or G.M.A.C (UK) plc
I'm totally confussed!

Thank you for helping

    You contact the insurer and ask them for a claims form. You can put your claim reason in a letter to them, such as why you are off work ill or whatever it is, but they will probably have a claims form that they will ask you to complete.

    Just for clarity, are you wanting to make a claim against the policy for illness etc - or are you wanting to complain about possible misselling?

    (I only ask as quite often people refer to 'claim' when in fact they mean they wish to ask for a refund of premiums)

    I'm not certain, but I'd suggest contacting GMAC. This is a quote from the Vauxhall Finance website:
    Finance provided by Vauxhall Finance, a trading style of GMAC UK plc, PO Box 6666, Cardiff, CF15 7YT.
    Actually, thinking about it, it was probably the dealership who actually sold the PPI so they might be your best starting point instead.

    The Dealership would have been the ones that sold it to you .

    Good Luck
