Debenhams and Plevin

Options
Hi All . Has anybody had any luck with Debenhams( Santander) with regards to Plevin . I was rejected with regards to my PPi claim but the final letter said that i could qualify for recompense under Plevin and that they would write to me in due course following further advice from their regulators. It has been about 6 weeks and nothing heard . I was thinking it may be worth giving them a call tomorrow but just wondered if anybody else has had the same experience?

    Thanks I appreciate that people have been waiting for ages and I know there is a substantial backlog. However my question is more about has Santander come to a decision as to whether they are liable for Plevin or not yet . The reason I ask this is that seemed to be what their letter inferred .

    Plevin only applies to cases where there was more than 50% commission and if there was, you get back the amount over 50%. If it's over 50% they pay it if they are liable, if they aren't liable, they won't have to. You'll need to wait and see

    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.
