4 loans, 10 years ago - can this be correct?

Hi All,

Just hoping for some advice - not sure how much light you could shed on this but here goes.

I had a chain of 4 loans, starting from 2001 with Barclays - all of which had PPI added. FOS wrote to me about 2 months ago to say that following their intervention my reclaim was successful and Barclays would contact me in due course with details of a refund that would be in line with the FOS guidelines.

I have not received any correspondence from Barclays however a payment of £14.63 has been made into my account - can this be correct? For 4 loans?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks :)

    I'd contact the Bank to ask exactly what this payment pertains to. If it is in fact your PPI redress, then you should request a breakdown of how they came to such a low figure. Did you default on these loans by any chance? Or pay them off after a very short time?

    Thanks for the reply Money, no - it was a very straightforward loan term - not large loans at all but never defaulted and paid off in full across the full term. I'm going to see if I receive correspondence today and if not I'll call them :)

    I've received correspondence from Barclays to say that's the total amount they're offering me :-( I don't understand how this can be right when it was a chain of 4 loans. If I copy the breakdown onto here will anybody be able to make sense of it for me please?

    hmmm...sounds a bit wrong.
    How quickly did you consiolidate them and did they all have PPI?

    They all had PPI and the dates are as follows:

    Loan 1 - 24/9/1999 - 26/4/2000
    Loan 2 - 20/4/2000 - 9/11/2000
    Loan 3 - 9/11/2000 - 24/5/2001
    Loan 4 - 23/5/2001 - 7/5/2002

    Thank you for trying to help me - I'm at my wits end feeling messed around by Barclays.

    And how much PPI did you pay to start with on each one before you consolidated it.

    I'm not sure. This letter says £186.56 but I'm not sure if this is supposed to relate to just one of them or the entire chain of loans :-S
