    Depends how much the charges were, if its the standard £12 charge no chance, if its older charges like £25 - £35 then maybe.

    But lots of missed payments is your own fault, it isn't the same thing as bank charges.

    Here we go again. If you had paid on time, then you wouldn't have had late payment fees. I'm so sick of this greed culture now. It's people who do pay their debts on time that suffer from all this greed.
  • To answer OP NO!
    Try it if you must but be prepared to lose your home if it goes wrong.
  • the loan has now been paid off!did take ppi for the first month but then cancelled it,is it worth the hassle trying?
  • 1-months PPI claim, if sucessful will get you £10-50, hardly worth it.
