PPI back to the 1970's

Grumpy_Old_Duffer

Just watched the MLM Show and I'm now wondering if I'm one of those who may have buried-their-head-in-the-sand regarding PPI.

I've had Mortgages and Bank Loans going back to the 1970's and Credit Cards since they came out.

I've always stated on Mortgages & Bank Loans that I did not want PPI, but after listening to the MLM Show this afternoon I'm now not to sure whether I was mis-sold PPI or not!!

With regards to Credit Cards I have ALWAYS paid off my Card debt EVERY month.

My questions are:-

1. If I've paid off Credit Cards every month, would the claiming of mis-sold PPI be relevant to my situation?
2. I must be like most people and I don't hold paperwork going back to the 1970's, so how would I go about finding out if I actually paid PPI on my early Mortgages and Bank Loans?

Then you will not have paid any PPI even if there was a policy attached to the card.

how would I go about finding out if I actually paid PPI on my early Mortgages and Bank Loans?

You could phone them and ask, but it's rather a long time ago . . .

Trouble is, if you don't even know if you had ppi, how will you remember (and prove) any miss-sell reasons?

PPI was an 80s product.

If it wasnt available in the 70s, how did you state it?

PPI was charged on the amount borrowed on the card outside of the interest free period. So, if you cleared it each month, it wouldnt be charged. Even if you were charged, it would have appeared as an entry on the statement. So, you couldnt miss it.
