Firstplus Query re PPI

Hello, hope someone can clarify.

I successfully managed to claim back the PPI added to my loan last year. The 5 year PPI policy that was added to my loan came to an end in November 2011 and I received a letter to advise me that I would be advised to look at investigating alternative PPI cover to cover my loan in case of illness. Fair enough I thought.

However, Firstplus are still collecting the same monthly premium from me as before. I contacted them saying that as the policy had ended surely they should revise down the monthly instalment (especially as I would also now have to pay an additional insurance premium to a company I found if I decided to protect the loan).

Firstplus have replied saying that the monthly premium will remain the same as the amount was calculated over the full term.....

I am confused. Surely this isnt right? Can someone advise?

Many thanks:(
