whats best PPI company to use?

Hi

I have had many credit cards over the years transferring balances and I have had loans, car finance and mortgage protection all over the last 18 years.

There is no way I can remember who with and whether had protection or account details.

I realise using a company they will take a percentage but thats fine if they can do the work for me.

I know some have a fee up front and with some I will be liable for charges if it goes to court so i was wondering what is the best PPI company to use out there?

Many thanks

    It really isn't best to use them, as they can take 30-40% of any refunds. This site can't advertise particular firms anyway, sorry.


    It's worth attempting yourself or asking a family member or close friend to help you. [Martin Lewis on ITV+1 now covers PPI reclaims tonight, so is worth watching on catch up at your convenience.]
    Please be polite to OPs and remember this is a site for Claimants and Appellants to seek redress against their bank, ex-boss or retailer. If they wanted morality or the view of the IoD or Bank they'd ask them.

    And you cant remember then no-one else will as your policy details are not in the public domain.

    Claims companies cannot magic the information out of thin air. They need you to tell them who you used and why you thought each one was mis-sold. Some of the dodgy ones may put in generic/fake complaint reasons but they still need to know who to send them to. All a CMC does is stick a stamp on the envelope of the form filled out. Complete and utter waste of money.
