Do Santander automatically check for Alliance & Leicester PPI claims?

I have requested confirmation from Santander re possible PPI on an Abbey CC and am awaiting results. I have since found paperwork relating to a loan from Alliance & Leicester which shows I did have PPI.
As Santander took over from A&L will they automatically include this or will I need to make a new request.

You will need to ask them about it as it depends when the loan was closed as to whether they had records moved over or archived or whatever. Provide any details you have
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.

Santander do not check automatically, it has to be a separate application.
Having further scrutinised my paperwork, I do not think the Loan Protection Policy I had is eligible for any claim. It was for Life cover only.
Thank you for looking.0 -

You need to understand that "eligibility " is not the issue, though.
It's not somehow automatically wrong simply to have insurance.
Even if you had PPI, you'd have to show that it was mis-sold to you-it's not a problem with the financial product itself.0
