Finally no more PPI adverts

It’s been a long time coming but we made it in one piece. Never again will we have to watch adverts for reclaiming PPI!

    I wouldn’t be so sure, I’ve a sneaking suspicion they’ll just switch to county court threats.

    ‘The PPI deadline has passed but here at Gladstone Crooks, we’ll take your complaint on through the courts for 40%’
    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)

    I'd be going for 'We've found a loophole that overturns the deadline. £250 up front and we'll take your case on. You keep 100% of any redress. (Success not guaranteed.)'

    Or the ultimate

    "Were you scammed for 30% of your PPI claim by a PPI claim company "

    Small print ... We will take 30% of any successful claim against a PPI claim company

    We are joking about this, but the fact that CMCs are now regulated might well leave them open to such complaints about their recent activities (and other "representatives" might well be only too pleased to benefit).

    It will never be the "gravy train" PPI was though...

    I think it would be amusing to see the "sharks" feed on each other in a killing frenzy

    The FOS is already upholding over 40% of complaints made against CMCs.

    So, CMCs attacking each other would be fun
