    I've had a similar problem. i know i had ppi on loans and a store card late 80's. Tried the companies, i could remember who they were, but they can't trace anything and i don't have any documentation left. Any hope, or is it a lost cause?

    If you have nothing and the companies have nothing then it is game over. The older things are, the less likely records are going to exist.

    80s PPI is not that common. It exists but it wasn't as mainstream back then.
