PPI Reclaiming successes and failures

- What were you reclaiming: Personal loan (graduate)
- Who was the provider: HSBC
- How much did you get back: £1081
- Did you get it back after a letter or did you go to the Financial Ombudsman: After a letter
- And then write your brief reclaim tale:
HSBC wrote back a few weeks later to say they were processing my complaint. This was followed by another "please wait" letter about 4 weeks later.
Then.....HSBC wrote to me upholding my complaint and offering to settle! :T
They also said they are not selling PPI anymore....what a coincidence with the new regulations....:rolleyes:
The amount included interest-earned and reflected what I had paid over the last 5 years of the loan (2 to go), so I accepted.
I had to go into a branch to sign papers restructuring my loan (as they couldn't just cancel the PPI apparently) and then....
I GOT MY MONEY!!! :j (about a week ago).
So....it's definitely worth doing.
I guess I'll be using the money to pay off some debts....how good am I?! :rotfl:
Good luck everyone!
Wow, fantastic, well done and Congratulations !

result, after nearly 2 years i finally recived a letter from HFC making an offer of over £7.000 pounds (which includes 8% interest) to refund ppi insurance misol
d on my loan account.
I had to take to ombudsman as my first request to HFC was refused, and while it was with the ombudsman they got fined so didnt have a leg to stand on, they call it a gesture of good will rather than admit they where at fault but it was worth the wait. Next stop capital one.
Brilliant, :T
Congratulations and well done, good luck with Cap One as well.
