Barclaycard PPI Claim, please help!!

Hi there,
I am currently in the process of claiming back my PPI and interest gained from Barclaycard. After a very long battle I have finally got an offer from them but it is nowhere near the amount I have calculated. The policy started back in February 2001 with an average interest of 1.7% per month They have offered:

A
Refund of payments for PPI Cover
£673.33
B
Refund of interest charged on PPI Premiums
£217.46
C
8% simple interest per annum
£493.86
D
Total Refund payable (A+B+C)
£1,384.65


This doesn’t make sense to me as I calculated it as using there average methods.

A
Refund of payments for PPI Cover
£673.33
B
Refund of interest charged on PPI Premiums
£1,520.19
C
8% simple interest per annum
£601.51
D
Total Refund payable (A+B+C)
£2,795.03


However I have done a full breakdown of the payments and interest gained on a monthly basis and worked it out to be about £4,000.


Can anyone help me with what I should be accepting as settlement?

Many thanks!!!

    Just out of interest who did you contact?

    Did you sign the acceptance form? You can always ask them to re-calc it

    When you win redress with a credit card,the card is reset to a nil balance,when they recalculate the redress,you get the 8% only on a credit balance,some only go back 6 years unless you have proof of ppi paid previous to this and send the statements,does this help at all?.

    Who did you contact?

    I need to push things along, they've had my complaint in 'rework' for 4 months. They initially said they can't find the account and I sent them statements, since then i've had nothing back from them. Every time I call i'm told the 'rework' team have no time scales and it can take as long as it needs. That's ridiculous.

    The Ombudsman is likely to take a long time, maybe 2 months if you're lucky or longer if the bank disputes the refund amount. A wait for an Ombudsman is about 18 months.
