Has anybody had luck claiming PPI from their Next Online/Directory account?

Hi all,

I have had a credit account with Next for nearly 6 years and I am looking to see if I have been paying any PPI against this credit agreement.

Does anybody have any success stories or advice to me on how I can go about starting a claim?

Many thanks.

    Look at your statements to start with, if you did have PPI then it will show on there.

    I've had a next account for years and years - like over 15... when I called they said they had a way of checking if there had ever been PPI on the account and that there hadn't. This was just normal customer services agent though so I'm not sure if they would have been able to see all the way back.

    PPI on an account like that is shown on every statement you ever had if you were charged it.

    It's also possible for an account to have a couple of different numbers e.g. one with PPI, one without which would allow a team to see immediately if you had

    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.
