I then read all of the posts, yes all of them! to see whether it was worth challenging Egg, as I am never lucky enough to get my money back. I took the plunge at the beginning of this year and this is what happened...
I wrote to Egg on 14 January, sending the PPI questionnaire with all the information I had about my loan.
Received acknowledgement letter of my complaint from Egg a week later
4 weeks after my complaint they wrote again advising they were still investigating
Yesterday, and 2 days before the 8 week deadline, I received a letter advising my complaint had been upheld and a cheque for £6500.
You have no idea what this money means to me, and now it has given me the confidence to take on Barclays and Capital One for rate-jacking me!
I have so much respect for you all, and thank you once again for giving me the confidence to beat the nasty banks!! xx

Just wanted to thank MSE for its advice as we have had a result!
After reading through the forum and using the template letters our claim was upheld last year. We were informed that it would take 3 months to process the payment, which we thought was excessive. However we held out and yesterday our bank account was £2656 better off.
THANK YOU MSE!0 -

Hi everyone
I had an Egg loan for over 13 years and had an insurance payment scheme attached to it. After reading through the information on this website, I contacted Egg and started the process to reclaim the insurance. After going through the process online, I sent off my forms to Egg and received a letter saying they were looking into my complaint.
After 2 months and a few letters from Egg (stating they were investigating my complaint), I received a cheque for £9,700! This has enabled me to pay off my remaining Egg loan! Yippeeeee!
I advise anyone to go through the guide on here and stick with it, patience pays off in the end! :j Thank you Moneysavingexpert.com!
