    Looking for any advice please.....took out a debenhams store card in 1995 was pressured into taking ppi protection and accepted. I cancelled 5 years later and have recently put in a claim for misold ppi. It was rejected on the grounds that I ticKed the ppi box. Do you think I can pursue this claim further as they have said that they are closing this case now
    Reject the reason for mis sale that they gave and show that you could have paid this card should the worst happen so you had no need of this PPI.

    You send the complaint to Barclays in the first instance,
    Relax, you've started repeating answers I've already given while you've been away;
    Unfortunately, your paperwork is not categoric evidence that you had PPI. The agreement only shows if PPI was initially agreed to, not if you cancelled it during the 30 day cooling off period or subsequently.
    As for your credit card, it's a simple matter to check if you have PPI because, if you have it, it appears every month on your statement. If it's not on there, you don't have it.

    So, before you rush off to complain to the official bodies, I'd write to the Bank and ask them about the discrepancy between your paperwork and what they stated with regard PPI non-payment.

    If you are adamant that they have information showing PPI then phone first and see what they say. If they say they cannot find any details apply for a SAR request and request all information that they hold on you. Costs £10 and you will find a template on here. The bank must give you any details they hold on you, but you must follow the template and not request specific information.

    This will only likely be information from the last 6 years.

    You will also find addresses for all major banks in

    Friday 13th Success
    had offer letter from CT Capital
    Full repayment of Life insurance and payment of proportionable rebate of PPI plus interest :j
    All in all £7k

    However offer letter states payment will be made by 31st October
    (interest has been calcluated based on this date):(

    Can I accept the offer but amend it so that payment is made in a more reasonable time scale i.e. 4 to 6 weeks
    3 and half months to raise a bank payment sems excessive.
    I have spoken to them and not surprisingly they said this is the best they can do given the 'backlog' they have.

    Any advice gratefully received

    PS Massive thanks to Amersall for his posts and support, I wouldn't have got such a speedy offer without these threads :beer:
    :j:j:j:j:jBrill :j:j told you so:D:cool:
    It may not take that long, just hang on in there :D
