PPI claim - advice please

*Rainbow*Warrior*

I would like to claim for PPI mis-selling. I have copied a template letter but I notice it doesn't suggest I put in details like the dates, the premiums I paid, nor the address I had at the time.

Can anyone tell me if all this info is required? The policy I'm trying to claim mis-selling for dates back to the late 1980s/early 1990s and I don't have all the details any more.

I suppose I just want advice from someone who has been through this - do the companies usually come back and ask for all this info if you don't provide it in the first letter, or will they just check their own records?

Thanks

Without comprehensive documentary evidence from your own archive, the chances of a successful complaint about finance from 20+ years ago are very slim. Your lender simply won't have records from this far back.
Sorry.

That's what I thought - still there's no harm in trying.

I just wondered how much info they will need. Maybe it's best if I just do a longer letter and give them all the dates and premiums I can find details for.

Expect a swift rejection letter, I'm afraid.
What valid and verifiable complaint reasons do you have?
