How do I get more exact PPI info?

Hi,
I have made some successful PPI claims in the past for a few credit cards I used to have. I know of one more credit card that I had but don’t have any details to claim that one, unfortunately. However, I remember having some accounts with GE capital bank, a couple of store cards (Top shop and possibly River Island). A couple of weeks ago, I filled in an enquiry form via Santander who have found a former account and have given me the account number, but nothing else. When I ran it through a BIN lookup, it told me it was a GE capital bank Maestro debit card, so I still don’t know which store card it was. Is there any way of finding this out - a subject access request maybe? I don’t want to start a PPi claim yet until I have that information as obviously I won’t be able to give specific details as to why the PPI was mid-sold.
If anyone could advise me of what they think I should do next, I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks

It will be an old GE Capital Bank ltd store card e.g Topshop, Burtons, Debenhams, Dorothy Perkins, House of Fraser etc, one of that group. Send a SAR to Santander, it's free now and they might be able to locate a copy of the credit agreement which should reveal the store who issued it.0
