    Do it yourself. CMCs have no magic wand and you’ll have to tell them why you’re complaining, they just forward it on for you and charge handsomely.

    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)

    What "forms"? Just write the bank a letter telling them why your PPI was mis-sold. Why pay someone to put a stamp on the envelope contains your complaint?

    Do it yourself for free.

    The Royal Mail. Basically that's all they do -post or email. You fill it out and do the hard work so if you have a supplier/lender in mind research and see if you can claim via their site. All for free.

    But if you are insistent - xxxxxx removed. I used them at the start for a few small claims which I paid 20% plus vat but they didn't try too hard and missed loans with RBS - came back no ppi.

    Went direct and got near £13k back. So, please don't use them.

    Please remove the name of the Claim Firm from your post. Such "promotion" is against forum rules.

    Contact each company you had PPI with?
    I found banks tend to have a link on their website dedicated to PPI complaints, fill in their form and email or post it to them.
    Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear it in 2026.

    I'm starting to look into it, so when you do it yourself is there a central thing you can do or do you have to work out who you had accounts with and fill in forms for each one? I did one for Halifax last week but haven't heard anything, the implication was they were going to phone me.

    How do I know who I had potential PPI with? It all seems like a lot of effort and work and digging - what these companies rely on I guess

    You sit down, you pick up the phone and you call your lenders’ PPI lines

    With auto-conversion now in force, any ‘have I got’ queries that throw up a PPI policy are automatically converted into a complaint with most lenders.
