Not sure if I did the right thing?

I have had a couple of loans and a CC with LLoyds in the past, but can't remember of I paid any PPI on the account, so I sent off a SAR last week to get the information.
I got a call from Lloyds on Friday regarding my SAR. The lady asked me if there was any particular reason I made this request and I was honest and told her it was to check if I had any PPI on my previous credit with them.
She told me she could check the accounts and they would let me knowif I wanted and I agreed.
Does this mean I will still get the full information? Will she do a thorough check of my accounts, the same way I would have if I had all the information requested in an SAR.
I am wondering if I should have just said I would prefer all my information to still be sent through as per the SAR?

A smile costs nothing, but gives a lot.
It enriches those who receive it without making poorer those who give it.
A smile takes only a moment, but the memory of it can last forever.

Whilst frontline staff tend to have access to less info, the complaints team should be able to find everything that a DSAR would findI am wondering if I should have just said I would prefer all my information to still be sent through as per the SAR?
Doing a DSAR is the long way.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -

Thankyou for the reassurance and the very fast response.
You do some wonderful work on these boards and reading all these threads gave me the confidence and knowledge to start chasing some things up myself rather than using any 3rd party company.:):)
