Claims firms take a quarter of PPI cash


21 May 2011

http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/credit-...ge_id=506&ct=5

Those seeking compensation for mis-sold payment protection insurance could lose hundreds from the money they are owed by using claims management firms, Which? has warned.

With the total bill for the PPI mis-selling scandal estimated to be between £7bn and £9bn, the group said claims management firms could take up to £2bn of people's compensation if everyone lodged their claim through them.
Which? added that people who took out PPI alongside a loan could find themselves owing the firms money, even if their claim was successful. It said people who received compensation for PPI that was sold with a loan they were still repaying, often had their outstanding balance reduced by the sum of the redress, rather than being given the cash, meaning they would have to find the money to pay the claims management company.

I DO wonder though, if the Bank Charges issue can be revived because I feel that that is unfinished business.

Govan Law Centre have a ''test case'' being heard in August but I wouldn't hold your breath.

I didn't bother with PPI originally because I didn't trust the banks then(how I right was!).
I DO wonder though, if the Bank Charges issue can be revived because I feel that that is unfinished business. My profuse thanks btw yet again to ALL those at Legal Beagles who've helped
me and others to fight these organisations who think ordinary people are fair game because they don't know their rights. The battle goes on!!

Thincat.

Very annoyed. I called Egg for another update on my complaint today, but was told it's still on hold - despite another Eggployee telling me earlier in the week that the hold had been lifted. Apparently that's only for Egg Loans, not Egg Cards.

Why on earth is it taking them so long? Ridiculous.

Since I've been refusing to make any further repayments until this was sorted (a matter of principle for me) Egg will issue a default notice next month. Is there anything I can do to delay this, other than pay off the arrears?

Egg, are notorious for dragging their heels...!

Re: the default notice:

Egg (Barclays) should not be issuing same, whilst the account is clearly in "Dispute"; and
if, the information is recorded on your CRA credit file, the information would be incorrect, which would breach the DPA.

[Emphasis] firms must take great care about registering defaults with the CRA's in this particular situation.

update on the RBS situation following the iron mountain posts in the last few days -

spoke with my contact in ppi concerns, saying new guidelines and processes to be used in reviwing cases to incorporate FSA policy statement havent been rolled out to case handlers yet, as yet no case handlers have been told when this will be so cant give an indication as to how long before responses start being issued.

Official line from RBS is all cases will now be reviewed asap and responses issued in due course, reality is if theyve not rolled new guidleines and processes out to staff then its unlikely to be any time soon.

Re: Latest Update on PPI Judicial Review - NO APPEAL - get your claims in......

the HSBC one was only received this week, maybe it only applies to cases that have been on hodl in a bid to clear the backlog without FOS intervention.

[skv123]

Re: Latest Update on PPI Judicial Review - NO APPEAL - get your claims in......

HSBC are also making goodwill offers without interest.

RBS are making a goodwill gesture to settle, not an offer of full redress so technically its not a breach of FSA guidelines.

Its possible these are on accounts where its a bit of a grey area, i.e. they are struggling to recover info from time of sale etc but suspect is a case they may be able to defend, it may be the goodwill offers are a bid to clear the backlog rather than have to spend time dealing with FOS (and of course the case fee).

Also if looking at it cynically then you could say they are pushing their luck hoping some complainants will be desperate enough for money after waiting 7 months on hold that they will accept a reduced sum.

I've had clients this week who've chosed to accept goodwill gesture and forgoe interest in a bid to avoid delays of going through FOS so shows that the tactic is working for them.

I've only ever experienced correct offers from HSBC other than the one occasion i spoke to someone who had complained directly. I wonder if they are dealing with some people differently than others.

When the RBS letter said it was a goodwill offer I telephoned them and the advisor stated the complaint had been upheld. I think you are right they are trying to make it seem a grey area as to whether or not its been upheld.

I do however think that the more people who contact the FSA about the practice the more likely it is that RBS will make the compliant offers.

You are also definitely right to look at it cynically and right that people who have been waiting months on hold will accept this rather than wait another year for the FOS to consider it.
