How long do most people get their money?

Options
Hi

I had a PPI claim upheld with the bank I have sent the forms back and it said on the letter it can take up to 6 weeks to send you the money. I know they may be saying this to cover themselves but I wondered on average how long did most people have to wait for their money?

Many thanks

    Hello. The banks have to investigate all complaints made to establish if the cover was mis-sold. They have 8 weeks to respond to you and, if they find there was a problem with the way you were sold they will make you an offer.

    Sorry, I have re-read your post and can see that they already found in your favour, that being the case it can take up to six weeks to process a payment.

    Did you have to sign to accept the offer?

    Every one will be different. If you work on 6 weeks, then if it comes earlier it will be a nice surprise...... Well done by the way
