Hi, ive been contacted by a company called ppi claims now(wilson tarquin) i know your recommended not to use a company but i just wondered if anyone has actually used them before and what did they think?
I would write letters myself to the companies I had credit cards and catalogues to but i dont actually know if i ever had ppi with them and only have customer numbers for them.
Any advice would be great

A claims company wont help you with that. You still need to give your complaint reasons whether you use a claims company or not. All they are really doing is putting a stamp on the envelope and taking x% plus VAT from you.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
Just ring up the banks or catalogues and ask if they have account numbers and if you had ppi,if this doesnt work,write a letter to each asking for all info they hold on you and enclose £10 for each.
This is what you will have to do if you employ a claims co and they have the cheek to charge you for doing the legwork yourself.
Give it a go,suprise yourself.0 -
Hey thanks, im lookin up the numbers now for the companies i had cards and catalogues with. I have my original account numbers for each one. I take it they have to tell you whether or not you did have ppi with them, its not like they`ll say i didnt but in actual fact i did?0
