Payment Protection Insurance (PPI)
If you’ve taken out a loan or credit card which was covered by PPI, the chances are your policy has been mis-sold to you and you could be able to claim £1,000s back on your loan insurance. In many cases, people are completely unaware that they are paying PPI because of the lack of transparency when taking out a loan. Due to the massively high profit margins that a lender can make on PPI, this lack of transparency has led to unscrupulous lenders making huge profits at the expense of the customer.
A recent change to the consumer credit act – the first in over three decades – has seen the FSA successfully challenging financial institutions over the mis-selling of these policies with 100s of people receiving part or total refunds of the monies spent on these policies.
What is PPI?
It is a form of insurance that is designed to help the customer repay their loan in the event of accident, sickness or unemployment.
How do I know if I was mis-sold PPI?
There are many reasons why your policy may have been miss-sold - below are some of the most common reasons:
- The customer was told they had to have PPI when taking out a loan and not that it was an optional extra
- The customer was not told that they could take PPI out through another company
- The customer was not in full time employment
- The customer was informed that the success of the loan approval could be affected by not taking out PPI
