Back in 01/03/06, I took a loan with HSBC for £15k. Having looked again at the copy of the agreement, I now realised that I also signed for a personal loan protetion plan loan for £5150. Is personal loan protection plan= PPI? I am not sure. What I am quite sure is that at the time, I wasn't allowed to take that loan without the personal protection loan. In total I owed £20,150 and with interest of 10.9% total amount payable is £30,288.
I have been paying off the loan as per the agreement till 2 years ago when I wrote to them to ask if they freeze the interest & I am paying them less than the agreed amount which they agreed. End of last year my OH decided he had enough and want out so I was struggling a bit with 2 small children and can't afford to pay HSBC the small amount we agreed as there are other secured loan (mortgage) took priority.
I received a claimed form (dated 06/06/12) from HSBC under CL Finance taking me to court over the sum of £13,846. I would like to admit to part of the debt but not the PPI so am now trying to put together a part defense. Having said that I am not sure what to put in that defense apart from there's a PPI in this loan and its illegal. I actually do not know how much of that £13,846 is PPI & how much of it is the original loan? So even if I want to part admit what do I put in the amount that I admit to? In that case should I put an acknowledgement of service to defend part of the claim or the whole of the claim and make a counterclaim of PPI against the claimant? So in the end I put in acknowledgement that I want to defend all of it. I just don't know what to do. Time is running out on me to prepare my defence now.
Here is my loan agreement (which also include the personal loan protection plan loan). Would appreciate if someone coudl tell me how to prepare a defence based on the PPI

I would really appreciate some advice as to preparing the defense. As it is now the 2nd of July I have not got much time left.
Thanks
