    I wish I'd taken out more loans now. Other than credit cards and mortgages the only loan I ever took was to buy my first car.

    Where's my free money, that's what I want to know? It's Only Fair.

    I found 10 years worth of statement a while back and it has details of PPI payments on it, so I've spent the last week preparing letters for three credit cards and numerous loans.

    Expecting the banks to fob me off (but then you go to the FOS) but you never know. I remember hearing on the radio last year that Barclays has set aside 1 Billion poonds for all the PPI mis selling.

    I remember being offered PPI in the late eighties for something or other and thought it was shockingly expensive. I knew then that being self-employed I wouldn't have a cat in hell's chance of claiming, so declined.

    Same story as those who wanted a repayment mortgage but couldn't actually get a mortgage unless they opted for an endowment ripoff, really.

    started a topic PPI Claim Bonanza

    PPI Claim Bonanza

    A few weeks ago I made a speculative claim to my bank about reclaiming the PPI on a loan I had about 10 years ago. I didn't have any details of the loan, couldn't remember how much it was for, or even if it was actually from them! I do specifically remember that when I took the loan out I was told that if I din't take out the PPI I wouldn't get the loan, obviously mis-selling. I was expecting them to say they couldn't find any details of the loan, or maybe they might repay a couple of hundred quid at the most.

    Anyway, looked at my account this morning, they have repaid me thousands of pounds. Thousands. OMG!

    Worth writing a letter for! I feel a trip to the shops coming on!

Working...
