can i still claim back PPI if i dont know the lender?

Options
15 years ago I took out a loan on a property that I owned, which has now been demolished. I definitely paid a huge amount of PPI. How can I trace the lender? It was not paid through direct debit it was done through a paying in book. Has anybody got any advice? This bank was First National Bank.

    Before you go about that, what is your reason for mis-selling?

    15 years ago so this predates regulation by some time.

    The only records you can check are your credit files. If it doesn't appear on there, you can ask first natioal if they remember/have records, but if the didn't sell it to you, it was probably a broker, and that means the broker probably wasn't regulated.
    So don't get any hopes up at all yet.

  • First National Bank PLC was acquired by GE Money.
    You'll need to speak to them for further advice.
    Thank you all for helping me make my day by saving money!

    First National now GE are the lender! But its about the sale, so you need to find out the seller/broker not the lender as you know that.
