Can I claim PPI/Compensation from Logbook Loans???

Hi All

Stupidly a few years ago I took out several logbook loans - I have cleared them all now:j (never again) but wondered if anyone knew of a way to claim back any compensation on the huge amount of interest I had to pay at the time....

One PPI company have told me they dont cover Logbook Loans so wondered if this was the case for everybody or if anyone has actually won a claim from them??

Thanks

    The interest on Logbook loans is not a mis-selling issue (nor is it insurance).
    You had the opportunity to refuse the loan at the outset, why would you now be able to reclaim interest?

    PPI does not cover log book loans.

    As for the interest, no you happily signed up to pay the going rate for interest.

    So you are on a hiding to nothing.
