    news that someone already received 14k compensation over this paperwork blunder
    As this "news" is completely uncorroborated, and comes from a user who has made one post and never returned to the forum, I wouldn't be counting any chickens….

    Nothing applies at all unless you receive a letter from your Bank.

    Personally I was hoping it was the end of the bankers misdemeanor fest but if true its here we go again !!!
    Redress for PPI and CPP is likely to go on for years in some cases its a never ending minefield :mad:

    Mortgages do not fall under the consumer credit act.

    This is not misdemeanor. This is consumers getting lucky on a loophole.

    We are already entering the final stages for most. In three years time, most of this will be over.
