Natwest PPI conned me

I took out a loan with Natwest whikst heavily pregnant and was told if i took out payment protection it would protect me whilst on maternity leave if i couldnt meet the payments, anyway have realised today that going to really strugle for next 2 months to pay loan repayments so called up natwest and after being pushed from pillar to post i was told unless i was sick or unemployed i wasnt entitled to anything. So upset as know dont know how we are going to cope finacially until i go back to work in feb. Any advise would be great

    Lolly,

    Sounds like you have been missold the PPI so you should certainly get any premiums paid so far refunded.

    As for making payments until February, go and talk to citizens advice. It may be you can negotiate a repayment plan with your creditors for a short while, although this may make it harder for your to get credit in the future.

    Good luck.
