How to reclaim PPI from 28 years ago

Hi,
I’m looking for some advice as I’ve hit a brick wall with my PPI claim.
I had PPI on my mortgage 28 years ago, but I don’t have any documents.
I have contacted my mortgage provider and they don’t have any records as it was so long ago.
I also banked with my mortgage provider but due to everything being on paper they have no records of my bank statements.

So, is there anything else I can do to reclaim PPI?
Thanks

    If you have no records and they have no records then its usually game over. No-one can see if you had MPPI. No-one can see if the bank actually sold it (it may have been an estate agent or mortgage broker). Maybe it was life assurance. Unless either side has documents, it is game over.
