PPI Reclaiming successes and failures

Hi all
I have received my 2nd offer from santander today for £3243.86. I first complained last tuesday 26/7/11 and have gotten results on both previous loans. I am delighted and £5500 better off. I would advise anyone with a claim against santander to phone the complaints department on 0845 600 6014 as i thought they were fantastic to deal with, not to mention a VERY QUICK response. Should have the money paid into my account within 2 weeks0 -
After reading all the reclaim advice many times I decided to give it a go, I didn't expect much as I didn't even know if I qualified as my account with MBNA had been closed for some time, instead of writing I rang them. (a freephone number)
2 Weeks later a letter arrived telling me they would investigate, 1 week after that a letter arrived informing me the complaint would be upheld, about 3 weeks later a cheque arrived £3002.40.:j:beer::D
Without this site I would never have bothered thank you all so much, gave me the bottle to get MY money back, thanks again.:T0 -

Just received £1107.29 from barclays for overdraft protection payments.
This was put directly into my account today. I am still waiting for them to pay for the ppi on 2 loans, although this shouldn't take long, hopefully.
This is a brilliant site full of help and inspiration.

I put in a PPI claim to Halifax (credit card), it went to the FOS but yesterday I logged into my online banking and my credit card is £1127 in credit!! I guess that means I've won (have not been advised via post or anything yet either by halifax, solicitor or FOS!!!)
Is this the way it usually works, I would have thought I might have received an offer letter in writing first. Not complaining though, £1000 is very handy at the moment!
I havent continued to read any further posts in case anyone else has commented but apologies for any repeats.
I got my Halifax cc ppi put back on my card and 3 days later they took it back to replace it with a cheque so i could do what i wanted with it. They told me they were NOT ALLOWED to put it back onto a credit card so pls pls double check this xxx2025 Wins ::

Another letter of acknowledgement from RBS, this time in relation to my AA Credit Card.
and my questionaire to Egg has been returned in a Royal Mail envelope with a note stating that "this article was found loose in the post" ! So much for recorded delivery!0 -
Just a quick note on timescales my Central Trust complaint was logged with the FOS on the 24th June 11, received a letter today from the FOS to say " due to receiving 5000 complaints a week it will be another 3 months until we get to the adjudicator" there is also a warning saying the case could take well over a year.
I hope this helps anyone wondering the length of time it takes at the FOS.
Hiya Nat
