Hello
I know that the best thing to do is claim it back myself but to be honest I really don't have time to do it myself.
So does anyone have any recommendations for companies that claim it back for me please?

Buy your bananas in bunches of 5 on Sunday. Then arrange them in order of ripeness and write a day of the week on each banana in felt pen, Monday on the ripest, Friday on the greenest to save time making those decisions on a hectic weekday morning

Nope. And you won't find reocmmendations on a money saving site for companies that take your money either.
And you do know that a claims company make you get all the info anyway, then just put it on the same form on the how-to on this site?
They then charge you 30% for putting a stamnp on it, then you pay 20% tax on any interest too.
Still don't have time?Non me fac calcitrare tuum culi0 -

Yes, some of of my colleagues even tried to justify using them by saying that the CMCs actually got them more than they would have by acting alone. Nonsense of course; claims companies often demand up to 30% of any redress and add VAT!0 -
Chuzzle, it's as hard claiming back PPI as it is foreplay, but when you send one off, that feeling of exhilaration is tangible. believe me, the first couple of payments were like the biggest back-lift and run up i've ever experienced then hitting the target. PPI really is that good when you do it yourself!0

Very colourful metaphors, but I guess I agree!:)0

May I respectfully suggest that if you are getting the same level of exhilaration from these two activities then you are doing something wrong?!!!!! Only thing is, from what you have said, it was the PPI reclaim that you got right!!!! :rotfl:I am an IFA.
