Claiming for ppi after Iva completion

cheesedoffwithdebt

I've not looked at this forum for a while as my Iva completed in 2015, but I've now looked at reclaiming ppi just because there's a deadline and I've not done it. Spoke to a company yesterday who said they won't touch claims unless the Iva completion is more than six years ago. I thought they'd got things mixed up but found there's a case where the IP claimed ppi and paid it to an Iva which may set a precedent - I thought it might only stand if the original agreement of the Iva specifically cited ppi claims but I'm just not up to speed , does anyone know please ? Thanks !

it doesn't need to state PPI specifically. I think it is something to do with having an 'All Assets Clause' although someone more experienced may be here soon to give you specifics .

I believe you would still be able to keep the interest though so if you do it through a company, which takes minimal effort on your behalf, and the money did go to your creditors you would still receive some money.

Don't under any circumstances use a claims company, as you will need to pay their bill out of your own pocket.

Plus of course it takes longer and lowers your chances of success in any case.

You need to check your paperwork, as any PPI claim can be taken by the IP even through your arrangement has ended, it is to do with the all assets clause of your arrangement, and has been ratified by the appeal court.

To be honest you may as well not bother if it is just going to go to the creditors, but it may benefit you to give National Debtline a call to explain things further.

This wasn't the case in the IVA company I worked for, although I appreciate this was a few years ago now so may have changed since then so thanks for mentioning that. Lots of IVA companies at the time opened PPi companies to be able to make the claims due to the lucrative fees they could charge, plus of course then were able to take more fees in the IVA when it was paid in!
