    Wow! You have given me some hope that I can claim PPI back!:j

    I have sent SAR letter off to Sainsbury's Bank this week. Checked my last 7 years bank statements on line and it appears that I have had 5 loans with them, probably with added PPI.
    Hopefully this will be confirmed once I receive the documentation from them and then I too may be able to claim back the PPI.

    Well done on your success. I really hope I can do the same to pay off some of my debts!:T
    hi there, nothing to do with claiming, just wondered how you got 7 years of statements on internet banking? i am trying to get 5 and it wont do it, looks like i will have to request from the bank and pay!!!

    • What were you reclaiming: LOAN
    • Who was the provider: WELCOME FINANCE
    • How much did you get back: £7000
    • Did you get it back after a letter or did you go to the Financial Ombudsman: 1ST LETTER
    • And then write your brief reclaim tale:
    Hi all
    I have now had a total of £7000 back from Welcome Finance and was all due to the information from this site (Thankyou All Very Much). My claim took a total of 5 Months but was well worth the effort.
    So chin up all those that are still waiting on Welcome as they will eventually pay out.

    Greg


    Well done and Congratulations Greg :beer::T:beer:

    Hi and your welcome.

    If your not happy with the offer then hopefully they will reconsider at least a higher amount for you, fingers crossed, and hope they get on with the others too with a good outcome, good luck.;)

    I used your first template letter to ask EGG for a PPI refund on a £5000 loan that was paid off last year. I wrote to them on 11 March and expected this would be a bit of a drawn out process and that I'd end up having to write to the Financial Ombudsman. In fact, I got a letter from EGG yesterday, 24 March, saying they are going to issue me a cheque for the full amount of the PPI plus interest on payments - a total of £1451.04. I suppose as it isn't a huge amount they thought they may as well just pay it.

    Great result. Thank you for your advice!

    Fantastic Grace :T:j Congratulations :beer: Every penny adds up, well done X
