Don't Let the Banks Fob You Off - How to Make a Successful PPI Claim

Online, July 1, 2010 (Newswire.com) - One of the biggest financial scandals of the last decade has been Payment Protection Insurance (PPI). PPI - a policy aimed to protect consumers, backfired dramatically as it was sold to hundreds of thousands of consumers who either did not need it or were unaware of it. The problem did not stop there as PPI often came with other unfair exclusions or charges.

Today there are still hundreds of thousands of financial consumers reeling from one of the worst cases of the financial industry mistreating consumers.

The scale of PPI mis-selling has been so huge that the Financial Services Authority (FSA) has extended the period to make formal complaints to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) for any previously refused claims.

Vera Cottrell, principal policy adviser at which? highlights the ongoing issue of PPI claim issues 'Of the two million people we reckon have been missold PPI, only a minority ever complain. It's outrageous that so many consumers are still waiting for fair redress, and we hope that this decision encourages more of them to persist. Our advice to people is: don't let your bank fob you off.'

Barclays responded to this decision by stating that they "still maintain that to prohibit PPI being sold at the point of credit sale, and for a fixed period afterwards, will limit rather than enhance customer options and will result in customers being exposed as unprotected."
