I am new to this forum, apologies if my terminology is incorrect or unclear, or if my questions duplicate those already discussed.
The basis of my claim is:
In 2003 I took out an "Unregulated" loan from Paragon via broker called "easy-loans" (now gone bust) for home improvements, included was a "one-off" payment protection premium.
In 2006 I refinanced again with Paragon via broker called GEL (now also gone bust) at a lower interest rate, again also included a "one-off" payment protection premium.
I consider that both PPI were mis-sold for various reasons.
I initially contacted Paragon, who told me that as both loans were via a broker any mis-selling was the responsibility of the brokers rather than Paragon.
As GEL fell under the FSCS scheme I was able to successfully claim 90% of mis-sold PPI on second loan.
However the initial loan was not covered by the FSCS scheme so reluctantly accepted there was nothing else to do.
Having done further investigations I was hoping to clarify a few points:
Is it possible to use the "Plevin" case to pursue a PPI claim on my initial loan? Or will Unregulated loans be excluded? I would appreciate any clarification that could be provided.
For the initial loan could I consider pursuing the underwriter, London & Edinburgh Insurance now part of Aviva.
If this is possible I would appreciate advice on how to go about this.
Once again apologies if the above is unclear, bur hopefully someone may be able to assist me.
