Hi
Can someone help here. I have just started and joined the Resolver to claim back PPI. Although I can remember lots of years information I'm struggling to get the information from the company I bought my car from. Now this was back in the mid 90's. I've contacted the car company but I'm getting the run around. Any assistance would be appreciated
TIA

    Long time before regulation started for car dealers (2005) so they don't even need to look at your complaint if they even had any records left. Would let this one go

    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.

    Who are you trying to claim back the PPI from? If the dealer sold you the finance & PPI, it's the dealer you should complain to, however if the sale was pre regulation (ie pre 2005) the dealer doesn't have to look at your complaint anyway and can just dismiss your complaint - so you are pretty much on a hiding to nothing.
