There are millions of people who have yet to receive compensation for Payment Protection Insurance. If you have taken out a mortgage, loan or credit/store card then you may be eligible to retrieve the fees that were taken from you.
You may apply for PPI compensation within six years of ending the policy, although you may still be able to claim for cover shortly after the policy has ended. The reason for this set amount of time is that the lenders must keep your paperwork stored for a minimum of six years.
Many individuals avoid getting in touch with PPI advisors to enquire about PPI which they may have been mis-sold to them, yet the majority of them aren’t aware of the sum which may be repaid. The value of the PPI claim varies depending on the personal circumstances but there is an average sum of £2000, excluding excess which is being repaid to people all over the country every day. When taking out a loan or credit you are placing your trust in a specific lender, mis-sold PPI is a breach of trust.
People are also worried about their financial background being affected by claiming any of this money back, although your credit rating and any other loans you have taken out will not be affected. Also the ability to apply for loans and credit in the future will not change at all, in fact the money you receive may help to pay off any outstanding loans and credit you may have outstanding.
