Claim Back Your Mis Sold Ppi With This Simple Guide

Payment protection insurance is a form of insurance that has been sold alongside loans in the UK for over 10 years

. The concept is simple, you take out a loan and the insurance policy makes your payments if you lose your job or become ill and have to take time off due to illness. It is thought that there are up to 20million policies in the UK alone. The problem is that banks have sold these policies to customers when it was not in their best interests, either by selling policies that exclude them for various reasons including employment status, pre-existing medical conditions, not fully explaining the costs of the policies and even adding the policies onto customers' loans without the customer asking for them. When this happens the customer has been mis sold ppi.

Making a PPI claim isn't as complicated as you may first think. Your bank can provide you with all the information you need in the form of copies of your loan agreements - these documents are easily obtainable from your bank, simply go into your branch or phone them up and request them

You then need to do the following:

1. Make a formal complaint to your bank, request copies of all loan documents if you don't have them.

2. They will probably respond denying that they have not done anything wrong - ignore this and press on making a second complaint - this time threatening to go to the Financial Ombudsman's Service(FOS), the regulatory body that investigates complaints against banks.

3. Most Banks will acknowledge their mistake and pay you the compensation you are owed at this point. You should be very careful to accept any goodwill offers without fully investigating the amount of money you are entitled to. There are many cases of people receiving a payout of around 750 from their bank; only to later find out they were entitled to 1000's! For clarification you are entitled to claim back the full cost of the policy & any interest paid on payments on the policy - most banks will offer 8% interest PA as well.

4. If the bank still says they aren't liable you will have to take the claim to the Financial Ombudsmen Service(FOS). Most claims are settled in 8-12 weeks but if they go to the Financial Ombudsmen's Service then it can take up to 1 year.

You can make your own Mis sold PPI claim but many choose to let a claims management company such as Gladstone Brookes act on your behalf and manage your claim for you
