    You'd be entitled to pay the company. They applied for the claim on your behalf and you received the PPI claim.

    As above. The provident wouldn’t have acted without a signature.

    bear in mind some of these CMC’s who offer a ‘free PPI check’ via Facebook adverts rely on people not checking the small print and often included the term that you were giving them permission to pursue a complaint on your behalf as well as the information check.

    ask the CMC for a letter of authority and maybe ask Provident, but prepare to find £800 to pay them.

    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)
