    You cannot "claim" back interest charges, that is the nature of borrowing money, you pay interest to the lender. If you want to complain about some aspect of the loan (such as a PPI policy) you need to establish there was one in place first

    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.
