ppi with northern rock

My husband took out a loan with northern rock in 2006. He lost his job shortly afterwards and it took a while to find a new one. Any ways one thing lead to another, debts started to mount up and we found ourselves going down the debt mangagement route, it was the only way. Were still in debt mangament now, the debts are getting cleared slowly.
Anyway, when i looked back on statements he was still being charged ppi. I thought you couldn't make a claim on this because you were in debt management, so why are they still taking money for it?. When i rang them they said he was still covered, but how could that be? surely it would be void? I have to admit we were made to feel it would be better to take ppi when he got the loan out, i don't recall being told it was optional, but it doesn't make sense to keep on paying it.
I would be so grateful if someone could help, i seem to be going round in circles.
