PPI Claim, Alliance & Leicester and Egg.

Hi all

I've finally decided to try and claim or see if I had PPI on previous credit cards.
My only issue is both cards were with companies that no longer exist. Can anyone get me started? I know I had PPI on an Alliance & Leicester credit card that actually lead to me receiving a bad credit rating because the payment kept on going after i'd closed the credit card. Do I approach Santander?
The second was a credit card with Egg from around 2003 and no idea where to start with that one.
Has anyone had experience with either of these?

Any help much appreciated.

Kelly

    PPi on a CC is charged on any outstanding balance. Did you not pay off the balance on the card before "closing" the account?
