Completed IVA & PPI - Can I claim?

Hi guys,

I know this topic will have been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't find it. My uncle is in the following situation:

Settled IVA in January of this year with a final pay off.
Has paid about £20k in PPI across 6 different companies.
Northern Rock have paid him back no problems.
Barclays have said they'll pay back no problem.
The rest say because of the IVA he can't be paid back.

Are they right? Do I have to go with one of these no win / no fee agents do you think? I don't want to.

Thanks,
I'm kind of a big deal

    Hi there

    Well done on your Uncle's success up to now!:beer:

    I assumed it should be fine, but hopefully someone on here will clarify on this one.

    You do not need to use an agent/claims company, they will only charge later on if successful, and its just a matter of completing a reclaim questionnaire as on step 3 below, send to the head office or complaints dept of whoever sold the accounts, and remember to keep copies, good luck.
