Mbna ppi

After successfully claiming a PPI refund from Egg, I have sent the PPI questionnaire to MBNA for two loans, one in 2005, and one in 2006 (both taken out over the phone).

I have cited the following reasons as to why the PPI was missold: It was a lump sum 'up front' premium, I felt pressured into purchasing it, I did not need it as if I fell ill, I would continue to receive full salary, I was not told that pre-existing conditions I had were not covered by the policy, and I am concerned that the salesperson was not financially qualified to sell me the policy. With regard to the second loan, I need to check, but I think the PPI would not cover the whole term of the loan.

Although on the form, it does say the PPI is optional, I did feel pressured into purchasing it.

Any ideas about what my chances of success might be?

Would welcome any suggestions. Thanks

  • I'm waiting to hear back on my MBNA loans too, but the general consensus on here is that front loaded PPI is pretty much a guaranteed win.
  • Thanks Davey, I only posted the letter a week ago, so I'll wait and see. The PPI refund would allow me to clear the loan completely, so fingers crossed.
