Can I Claim My PPI Payments Back?
If you have taken out a mortgage, personal loan or credit it is almost certain that you were sold payment protection insurance from your lender. PPI ideally covers your ability to repay your debt should you find yourself in difficult circumstances such as injured or unemployed, however, the lenders found a loophole and have been selling PPI to customers who were not eligible for the cover or who did not fit the particulars of the PPI they were sold. If you have paid for PPI you may be entitled to claim this money back. What you may not be aware of is why you could be eligible to claim and why the banks could face a huge wave of payouts
Banks To Refund 4bn To PPI Customers
Refunds for Payment Protection Insurance on loans, mortgages or credit could cost banks well over 4bn after it was revealed that most customers were a victim of a unlawful sale. It had previously been estimated that up to 1.2bn could be claimed by customers who attempted to reclaim payments but this new figure includes the added amount of customers who the banks will be required to give refunds to.
