Hi Still Barclays and FOS. Settlements figures are simple 8% and rebates are without interest. Have only just got back so am going to print out all e mails etc and compose response to FOS. Perhaps when I work it out can I PM to you see if I am missing plot or something here. Do not want to post on Forum as am sure FOS and c ompanies check on here and do not want to be identified at mom:mad::mad:0 -

I have one in now with the adjudicator, they rang yesterday about the co-op bank and hopefully that will be sorted soon. Trouble is co-op are delaying sending things to the FOS and its going to take a little longer. I did ask yesterday what would happen if they don't and they said they would just uphold it in my favour. I also got asked about when i became aware there was a problem with the PPI and i told them in April this year when i found this site. We had 4 loans with the co-op and never asked for the PPI but it was applied and we just assumed it was compulsory. I now know it was not and that we could have added to our income protection instead.
I don't feel sorry for these banks either, i don't blame them for my debt in the first place but i think the adding to the problem and enduring us to more debt was not very professional at all. Who can you trust, thats what its done to me, i don't know who to trust now and I feel myself having paranoid thoughts about anyone in the future to do with finance.
I look back at the time with Firstplus when i asked them for a settlement figure and they gave it to me and it was more than we borrowed. Never once did they say it was anything to do with the insurance being paid front loaded, they always said it was Rule 78 and that was why. I remember the stress i was going through at the time through other things and then this. I hope we all win.0 -

I know what you mean about the "lookings" on this site but sometimes i wish that companies did look to see the strain they were putting us all through. As regards FOS looking I think they will all be too busy sorting out our claims.

So glad things have started moving for you Marshallka lets hope they get their finger out and play ball. It would make things a lot easier for all concerned:D
I know that FOS check this site 'cause some time ago somebody was complaining about time they had to wait and they were suffering severe hardship and basically their adjudicator was useless. Within a day the FOS had tracked down who the complainant was and contacted them re hardship issues:rolleyes::mad:0 -
