You are not short on time at all. Any PPI complaint received at any time prior to the August deadline will be fully dealt with as per the regulated complaint process.GraBaBargain wrote: »I was more trying the scattergun approach as I know I'm short on time.
Did you even have PPI?0 -
Thanks. I'm pretty sure that at least two of my previous loans had a PPI element to them.0

How could you make a complaint solely about Plevin?
Do you know for certain that undisclosed commission exceeded the 50% tipping point?
If not, your "complaint" was more of an enquiry...
You can make a Plevin only complaint, there isn't much point as few people who want to complain about PPI actually want to have the policy but it is possible, one or two banks allow you to do it directlySam 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.

It's hardly a suitable route for the OP, however, who does not even know if he had PPI. A Plevin only complaint is mainly for those whose PPI complaint failed some time back and for which they received no automatic refund as per Plevin.You can make a Plevin only complaint, there isn't much point as few people who want to complain about PPI actually want to have the policy but it is possible, one or two banks allow you to do it directly
It's got very little to do with people who still have PPI and wish to keep it.0 -

Yes but that wasn't the point I was making. You saidYou can complain about anything you want but, since Plevin only applies to rejected PPI complaints the sale of your PPI will be automatically investigated.

You only part-quoted my post. What I actually asked was how could the OP make a "complaint" solely about Plevin without knowing whether commission(if any) exceeded 50%. The OP is not even certain he had PPI!Yes but that wasn't the point I was making. You said "How could you make a complaint solely about Plevin?"
This is incorrect

Yes indeed, but it would still involve an investigation into the sale of the PPI before it was awarded. So not "incorrect" at all.This is incorrect, Plevin can be complained about directly
There is really no need for this back-and-forth, especially as you are quoting only parts of my post and the OP's query has long since been answered. 0 -

Once again, incorrect
You can make a Plevin only complaint, WITHOUT complaining about the PPI. To be very clear:
Some banks, e.g. RBS, allow you to look into Plevin commission AND retain the PPI policy i.e. those who wanted the PPI but were concerned about commission
Please see link below
https://personal.rbs.co.uk/personal/support-centre/how-to-complain/ppi-complaints/comission-only-plevincomplaints.htmlYou can choose to make a complaint only about commission however this will not consider any potential PPI mis-sale. (Commission Only (Plevin) complaint form)
It's not a "back and forth", it's correcting you giving out incorrect informationSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:

That has not been set up for those who wish to "keep" their PPI, though.Some banks, e.g. RBS, allow you to look into Plevin commission AND retain the PPI policy i.e. those who wanted the PPI but were concerned about commission
It was mainly set up for people who have already had their PPI complaints rejected, hence why such a complaint will not lead to the PPI itself being investigated.
Since mortgage PPI does not reach the 50% tipping point for Plevin to apply, one has to wonder who still has mis-sold loan and credit card PPI still running fully ten years after the Banks stopped (mis)selling it.0
