Genworth/Dorothy Perkins 2003

Hi, I have recently found a load of old paperwork and came across lots of statements from my Dorothy Perkins storecard from 2001-2003. The first few statements do not include any insurance but the rest of them do, so I'm going to claim. I have never requested any insurance so I'm sure I haven't signed for this. So, I've found the address for Genworth as I understand they deal with the claims. Can anyone help me? Shall I send the PPI form or a letter with a copy of a statement?
Thanks... fingers crossed.

I'd be very interested to know how you got on with this claim as I have one with DP too and was wondering whether it was worth even making a claim. Mine is even older than yours but if you've had any success I might give it a try:)0

If they declined it because it was pre-2005 they have the law behind them - essentially like changing a 40 limit to 30 then issuing fines to everyone who drove at 40 the month before it was changed - pre-2005 purchase = not regulated = regulator can't do anything.
FOS will take anything on pretty much, they will look at the case and see it is not regulated and suggest you try the underwriterSam 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.
