Hi all. Just looking for some advice.

I was about to decide which company to use to put a claim in for PPI as i have had letters from the claims guys and claim4you.

The reason i was going to use a company is because i do not have any bank account numbers or loan agreement numbers etc.

And also how far back can i claim?

Any advice will be gratefully received

    A claims company cannot do anything you cannot do alone.

    You can contact your former lenders yourself, why do you want a company to do it for you?

    There is no formal deadline of how far back you can complain, but obviously older accounts are less likely to be on record.

    Niether will they, you'd still have to provide them with the details.

    If you believe you were mis-sold ppi, and wish to complain, why not phone the bank or finance company involved and ask if they can help.
