Reclaiming PPI From Storecards

rockstar44

I have 2 store cards, Dorethy Perkins & Debenhams, which I have had since about 1996, both of which had PPI on them up until April when I tried to reclaim this from Santander. As they were so old (Pre 2005) I followed the advice on this site & decided to use a Claims Company. I've given them all the information & someone from the company phoned me today to say that PPI cannot be reclaimed from Storecards anymore. Has anyone else heard anything similar or do you think they've just decided it might be abit too much like hard work?

Who on this site has given that advice. Apart from some obvious stooges the advice is consistently not to.

Possibly. More likely they do not have the necessary knowledge and expertise to make it worth trying.

Thanks for the reply. I went through the guide on the main site for reclaiming from credit/store cards, because Santander or G.E Money as was were not covered by the FOS at the time the PPI was sold, the advice is 'use a claims co' or engage a solicitor. I decided to use a claims co as my thinking was that 70% of something is better than 100% of nothing! I know I've got a good case, I've already claimed over 12K from 2 credit cards myself, Santander just don't seem to be playing ball!
