Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

Thanks u should have it by now. Will ithe letter do the trick or will it fall flat on its a4se?

Hi and thanks.

Well in my opinion its a fab letter and a good firm one too, I will be surprised and most certainly annoyed if this did end up flat on its a4se to be honest, but here's hoping for a good outcome to come out of this.
Fingers crossed.

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

can I email you my letter to the FOS? I would be very interested to hear your thoughts.

Hi just received it and replied to your message, so please do.

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

Hi

Sorry I did not get back to you yesterday, but in my opinion I would be doing the same as you, there is still a chance of this going more into your favour, plus getting the clean files, good for you.

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

Di, just to let you know, I told the FOS to screw their £150, I'm going to an Ombudsman instead! My adjudicator is woeful and I'll take the punt for that money. Worse case scenario I don't get the £150; best case scenario my credit files get cleaned up.

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

Its defo get that feel yeah. My dilemma is do I take the £150 or do I go the Ombudsman and risk losing that offer? This limb of DS -v- Marbles is about adverse data not PPI...............

Hi TDS

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

Di, I have the same problem on my marbles complaint with the FOS. He has also repeatedly phoned despite my insisting on written contact. Had a letter today which goes against me lock stock and barrell but which then offers me £150 to settle. Hmmm....I wonder if the adjudicators are under the cosh at the moment to settle disputes asap? there is a marked difference imo between now and this time last year..................

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

hi di, not been on your thread for a while so please forgive me if I've missed few steps, however I think you need to get a response in to the adjudicator regarding his email of this afternoon.

He seems to be trying to tie two separate arguments together in order to claim your contradicting yourself.

As I understand it there are 2 separate points here:

1. It likely given the changes to the credit agreement that EPF added the ppi after your original quote from Click which didnt include it and ran over a different term, in the event EPF did this then you beleive them to be liable.

2. Even if the adjudicator finds that click sold the insurance after the original quote as they packaged for EPF and therefore click are liable then you want to rely on the agency argument as detailed by TBD.

eitherway, whether he decided it clicks problem or EPF's problem your claiming agency agreements and as a result ultimately want to make hamilton liable for refunding you.

All your doing is saying if its 1 then fine, hamilton under agency, if its 2 then also fine, still hamilton under agency but just with another middleman to track through, either way your not contradicting yourself, just covering all possibilities as there is some confusion as a result of contradicting credit agreements aurrounding at whhat stage ppi was added and by whom.

You need to be careful that he doesnt try to paint your eveidence as contradictory and use this as an excuse to uphold on grounds of EPF by stating your version of events is inconsistant and therefore unreliable.

Thank you Paul and no worries.

I am happy to have as much advice as possible.

Good points made though, and that did also occur to me that he may try painting my evidence as a contradiction.

When I emailed him back about this matter and stated that we did previously assume HFC were involved as during the loan process but reminded him we did not know of their definate involvement on what role they taken on, I also reminded him that before he was meant to send out his decision via HFC, almost 2 weeks ago - that we stopped him in his tracks to confirm we had now found the paperwork via Click Finance which we did not have this to hand before, and this then was looked in further where we could then see the involvement of all 3 parties.
We told him its just as confusing for us as it it them but at the end of the day someone is responsible.

I also reminded him its the link he required as he did in the first place to link all 3 relationships of Click Finance/Endeavour/Hamilton (again where we only now came across the paperwork which is required to prove this).

I made a point to him that his colleague had suggested the Underwriter direction in the first place, which was then passed on to him to adjudicate, and due to the broker dissolving this was the action we're meant to be taking.

In my opinion though, even if its down to the underwriters, we had no actual contact with them either, so its down to the FOS to go this avenue to try to retrieve the refund.

(Sorry a bit wound up, my autistic brother got rushed in hospital as well today), so my head is all over the place.

Re: Hamilton/HFC/Endeavour - Reclaim PPI

I told him, and reminded him that we had recently found the paperwork (Click that we did not have on hand until we found it) which was why we stopped him in his tracks of him sending the letter out via HFC's decision, and re-sent him the email so he could see it again.

Of course he tried to say we contradicted, have a read below, he is twisting things, the whole point here if the underwriter and finding the involvment!!!!
I really don't think he can be bothered to be honest!




Mr & Mrs

Your post has been received this afternoon and I have had a quick read through. Before I go deeper and prepare to issue a view can you answer the following two questions.

1. Is this all the evidence you are going to provide to me or shall I wait to the 19 July deadline before beginning my review?

2. Am I right, following receipt of your evidence, that you believe that Click Finance did sell you the PPI and did so on instruction of EPF as a mortgage packer (those proving in your opinion an agency relationship). The reason I ask this is because it contradicts your previous testimony that Click Finance had no involvement in the sale of PPI and it was sold in a telephone conversation you had with HFC.

I thank you in advance for your response.

Yours sincerely
