PPI Reclaiming successes and failures

  • Hello all,

    I have received a letter from HSBC that they are upholding my PPI on a loan, and they looked into previous loans I have had too.

    They are paying out £18,000 - needless to say I absolutely speechless! This will pay off the remaining two years of my loan and leaves me £12k and debt free.

    Again, a huge thank you to everyone on this forum for their help and encouragement - I wouldn't have done it without you!
    I love this post, such a success well done! i am currently waiting for a reply from my ppi form sent in, did you have to ring them at all? wondering what numbers to ring as i am no longer a hsbc customer, what time scale was it from start to finish chick? x

    Well done guys, some great news.

    I really need to stop reading these success stories, as I'm waiting on another 1 or 2 to come back, I was delighted with £90 I got back, then ecstatic when I got back £460 from another, now I'm hoping for big massive pay-outs of 1000s of pounds, LOL, I'm getting too greedy now looking in here all the time.

    Hi everyone, i was wondering if anyone knows the timescale in which HSBC deal with there ppi claims?

    I sent it of on the 14th of feb and was wondering whether i should follow it up with a phone call?
    They should acknowledge by 14 days and give a final response by the end of 6 weeks after this.
  • phoned santander to see if they had received my claim, which i sent in dec 2011, as i have had no correspondance. i was told i probably sent it to the wrong address(even though it was the one off the website). i was told i could claim over the phone, however i dont have account numbers. i have just sent a letter to their archive dept to see if they can retrieve them. anyone know how long this can take????

    thanks
  • Hi

    Can I ask you knowledgeable people whether you have any advice on my attempt to claim ppi.
    I dug out 2 old Credit agreements for 2 cars I bought in 2002/2003 where there was a pre-ticked box for PPI.
    Purchased cars through Autolink Services Ltd with finance through GE Capital Bank trading as GE Capital Woodchester (now part of Santander)
    Santander wrote back and told me to go through the dealer but they no longer exist!!
    Called the FSCS who could not trace them and advised as it is prior to Jan 2005 they could not assist.
    Is that the end of the road??
    I have several pending cases which I shall report on as and when
    Thanks v much in advance

    You need to ask FOS if you can go for the insurer,if you can,the FOS can help if they reject you.

    Did you enclose £10?,if you did they have 40 days to get this info to you.
    When were these loans settled?,if less than 6 years ago, get a free trial of your credit report,as you can use the last 4 digits of the account,or try your bank for the DD,if they find this,the account number will be there.
  • Hubby successful in reclaiming mis sold PPI from American Express. They did however say that this was a goodwill gesture and were not admitting liability.
    £1800 refunded to his account.
  • Sorry to jump in on your thread santa, but i am trying to find the email address for the ceo of HSBC, would you have it to hand?

    I didn't realise that you can't type an email address on here so if you look on the web for company CEO's it's the first one that has a list
