Mis Sold PPI Claims | Payment Protection Insurance compensation | Reclaim PPI

Mis Sold PPI, or Payment Protection Insurance to give it its full name, has become a controversial subject lately, with an increase in mis sold ppi claims being noted across the finance industry (loan, mortgages and personal finance). There are many reasons for this, not least the evidence of mis-selling of policies uncovered by the recent Financial Services Authority (FSA) investigation. As a result, the proposed revisions to the way PPI will be sold look to make the loan insurance market a much safer and more competitive place for the consumer.

However, the changes won’t affect those who have already been paying unfair ppi charges and you may be unaware you have PPI claims or indeed a PPI policy and be entitled to PPI compensation. If you have taken out a loan or mortgage you may well have been sold an insurance policy to cover you in the event that you can no longer keep up the repayments. This cover is known as PPI and if you weren’t offered it at the point of borrrowing, it’s worth checking your statements as some lenders simply included the policy without telling consumers or explaining the terms and conditions fully. To find out if you have an eligible PPI claim or to get one started simply fill out the quick form above or give one of our dedicated teams a call today on 0800 840 72 92.

PPI in the News…

In other cases of PPI mis-selling, consumers where told that they were obliged to take the PPI policy offered by the lender or even that they wouldn’t agree to the loan without PPI being included. These ‘terms’ were false in many cases and many lenders have been found guilty of such practices meaning that you could have a solid base upon which to make a claim to get PPI compensation.

When sold correctly, PPI is actually a useful product that can help you out of a sticky situation, the problem is, it hasn’t always been sold correctly. Some individuals were mis sold ppi policies promising them cover in situations that they later found they were not covered for. If this applies to you, again you have a good basis for making a PPI reclaim.

The revisions to the market have made it illegal to sell to the borrower at the time the loans are taken out. This allows you 7-14 days to shop around for the best possible deal and also stops the practice of coercing people to go for the loan providers potentially uncompetitive offerings.
