    Re: Lifestyle Claims

    I started my PPI claim with lifestyle in December 2011, paid the up front fee of £223.29 pounds a filled the forms in and sent it off, a few weeks later i had another phone calling saying i could speed up my claim by paying another £599 pounds which would come off lifestyle fees if my case was won or refund back to me, i paid up and waited. I contact Life style a number of times over the next few months and all i was told was my claim was on going. I was then told my case had been handed over to Ultimate law as it would be going to ligation, i phone Ultimate law and was told i had a few forms to fill in which i did and sent back. A month later i had heard nothing so again i contacted Life style and Ultimate law, again i was told my case was on going and they were just waiting to hear from my bank. Last week i phoned Life style to be told they had gone into administration i contacted ultimate law and was told the same. I contact the Administrator and was told i would be getting a letter in the post, which i did the next day. The letter said that the business had been sold as a pre=package sale this was to preserve the business and the on-going PPI claims, i again phone the administrator with reference this statement only to be told that my claim had failed , i guess because i paid up front. I am now trying to get my up front fees back from my credit card company. All in all a very bad experience , i just feel conned and scammed and think something should be done about the way these company scam you.

      Contact your credit card provider and advise that they have not provided you with a service and you paid £xxxx and under section 75 you want to claim the money back. See how you go with that as I am not sure once they are in administration that you can still claim this way.

      Also, I would write to Ulimate Law advising that if your claim failed, you want to know why it failed and that they have to return to you the money that Lifestyle Claims took from you as this was returnable. If they have purchased the business they must of also taken on their debts as well.

      Just looked at Ultimate Law website could not see that they are authorised by the MOJ to carry on the type of work that they are doing and this is something that I think we will have to take up with the MOJ to get their opinion on this, I will revert to you on this once I have more information.
