PPI success

Many thanks to all on here. I've just received a very nice cheque from Lloyds for credit card PPI. I had intended to use a claims company until I saw this site so I think you've saved me over 10K in fees! I'm on a roll now. Can anyone tell me the earliest PPI was applied by Lloyds to loans and mortgages. I had 4 property loans during the 1980s. Any examples from that period would be much appreciated.

    Do you have any evidence of the loans back then (statements, loan agreements)? That will be the sticking point for claims going that far back

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    No nothing at all. I'm hoping they will find the details but I don't want to waste their time if PPI wasn't in use then.
