Who do I make the PPI Claim against

winskill15

Hi,

I am in the process of claiming for my PPI and not sure who to make the claim against. Our mortgage was with Halifax, however a mortgage broker through Sesame dealt with the application for us. The broker also sorted out our insurances, including an accident, sickness and unemployment policy (PPI). The insurance was with Royal and Sun Alliance. So who is the claim against? Sesame Ltd (mortgage broker), Royal and Sun Alliance (insurance company) or Halifax (Mortgage Provider)?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

If it is before 2005 then you are pre-regulation and they dont have to consider the complaint. If it is after 2005 then you complain to the advice firm or you can complain to Sesame directly.

However, it is worth noting that MPPI via mortgage brokers would be an unusual complaint. They account for under 1% of PPI sales and most are rejected. They tend to have much better audit trails from banks. Plus, unlike banks, the individual staff members are held responsible. So, this is not going to be faceless complaint. With banks you have nothing to lose from a try-it-on. With mortgage brokers/advisers, you are playing with someone's livelihood. If you have a valid reason for complaint then that is fair enough. However, if you dont then do not do it. I have had a mortgage broker come to me in tears in the past because of a try-it-on PPI complaint against him.

What are your complaint reasons?
