Re: Latest updates on PPI Judicial Review and claims on hold

Banks should process claims but the BBA view is different to that viewpoint, ie process to conclusion and payout only cases that are outside of the JR process.

Well they would have that viewpoint wouldn't they?

Simple fact of the matter is virtually all complaints made since Oct have been put on "hold" and that includes clear ICOB/ICOBS breaches, something which the JR has nothing to do with.

We all know that the BBA is using the JR as an excuse to park ALL complaints. Simple.

I suspect big fines will be forthcoming over the next few months, however what will a few million quid mean to L/TSB, HSBC and the like...while the consumer suffers yet again!!!!!

i think it all boils down to the fact that the banks have been ripping us all off without mercy or shame for years,they,ve gone against there and the regulators own codes of conduct i for one will be watching the result of this j.r very closely. as i,m sure you all will, will it be a victory for the man in the street or will it be a whitewash, i think banks have lost a lot of credibility either way.

Re: Latest updates on PPI Judicial Review and claims on hold

Article from The Times:



''Consumers mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI) may have to wait more than a year for compensation after the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) said that a judicial review brought by the banks has led to a dramatic jump in its workload.
In a letter sent to the bosses of claims management companies, which fight for refunds for consumers, Nathan Horner, head of the team handling PPI claims at the FOS, writes: “The court action is leading to delays both for cases that are directly affected and other complaints about the sale of payment protection insurance.

“Unfortunately this means there will be a delay in progressing the PPI complaints you have with us. While I am not able to give you a timeframe at this stage, I’m afraid some cases are likely to take over a year to be resolved depending on when and how the legal action is concluded.”

The letter refers to a judicial review brought by the banks against the Financial Services Authority and Financial Ombudsman Service, which began in the High Court in January.

A number of banks, including Lloyds, Barclays and HSBC, have put complaints on hold pending the outcome of the review. The FOS said the freeze on claims had forced more consumers to push complaints its way - it has received 43,000 PPI complaints since Christmas compared to 49,196 cases in the whole of the last financial year.

A spokesman for the FOS said: “The ombudsman is continuing to deal with PPI cases - and consumers can still refer their complaint to the ombudsman service if they feel they’ve not been dealt with fairly by the financial business involved. “While up to now we’ve been able to resolve the majority of PPI cases within six months, due to the ongoing legal challenge by some banks - and the way that these businesses are dealing with complaints - it is likely that cases will take longer to sort out moving forward. This does not affect the way that the ombudsman service is dealing with complaints about any other issue.”

The judicial review centres on a complaint by the British Bankers Association (BBA) that new rules introduced by the FSA governing the way PPI is sold will be used to assess complaints about policies that were taken out before the new regime came in. It also does not like the way the FOS is using the new rules when it assesses complaints that have been referred to it by consumers.

It is unclear when the outcome of the case will be known, but it is not expected this month.

PPI is an insurance policy taken out alongside credit cards, mortgages and loans to cover monthly repayments if the holder is ill or loses their job. It has been engulfed in a mis-selling scandal in recent years after it became apparent that lenders were often not bothering to check whether a customer would be eligible to claim. In other cases customers were wrongly told that they had to buy the insurance to be able to take out a loan, or the policy was added to the cost of the loan without the customer even being told.

Daniella Lipszyc, and director of law firm Ultimatelawltd.com, said: “The banks are doing everything they can to skirt around the issue. For example, a lender recently agreed that it had mis-sold a PPI policy to a client of mine, but would not pay compensation until after the outcome of the judicial review. Three months later, my client received a compensation payment from the lender.

“Although it was good news for my client, it shows that the whole system is in a mess and that most lenders will continue to hide behind the judicial review for as long as possible. Even if the judgment goes against the banks, I’ve no doubt they’ll appeal, thus delaying the handling of complaints even further.”

Potential claimants should remember that the FOS is free, but claims management companies will charge a fee for their services''

Re: Latest updates on PPI Judicial Review and claims on hold

So, again, someone needs to kick arse somewhere to get the banks to start processing claims in a fair and reasonable manner (both during and after the JR)

Re: Latest updates on PPI Judicial Review and claims on hold

It's disappointing that the FOS felt concerned enough to write to Claims Management Companies about the delays but not individual claimants.
