    You want to complain about selling that took place 29 years ago?

    Did PPI even exist back then?

    I doubt you'll get very far...

    MPPI or ASU wasnt around in 84.

    So, why do you want to reclaim something you did pay?

    "Claim" on what grounds?

    In 1984 the only Ombudsman scheme was the Insurance Ombudsman Bureau - and even that did not cover all insurers. So the chances are practically nil.
