I had a computer from PC World funded by them and it had PPI cover.

I have paid the loan off now but could I lodge a claim for refund of PPI do you think?

[gordonsanderson]

sounds all to familiar to me

Just in case anyone has missed the announcement at the top of the forum regarding the class action against HFC, this is now gaining momentum.

I have been personally involved with the formation of the committee of claimants that will be driving the action forward, however if anyone else wishes to get on board then either contact me, or the PPICG (Payment Protection Insurance Claims Group) via the addresses given in the announcement.

We are looking for anyone who believes they may have been missold PPI by HFC, and is either at an early stage with their claim (perhaps up to exchange of AQ's) or has not yet commenced action.

Should your claim meet the criteria for joining the group, the solicitors (Clyde & Co LLB) have guaranteed that any adverse costs will be covered.

We are happy to answer any questions or concerns that you may have, and of course, any discussions will be treated as confidential.

Hi All,
Just recieved a response from the Financial Ombudsman giving HFC 8 weeks to respond to my complaint, as if that will make a difference, what i need to know is...my S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) (Subject, Acces,Request) from HFC fell on deaf ears as they have only sent me a pile of nonsense from this one particular loan from 2004 with no proper documentation not even a statement, they also said that any system generated letters cannot be enclosed with their response as copies are not kept (b******ks) so where is the default notice they served on my account in 2005 gone,they are just hiding all my info and yet i have had 4 finance agreements prior to 2004 from 2000/2001 and they have failed the 40 day deadline and have been non-compliant with my request, so i've been looking on the HMCS on obtaining a court order to force them to comply, do any of you know which order i need to complete so that i can get all my information out of HFC and claim more PPI/Charges etc

Regards Gordon

Hi ALL,
I've just recieved a letter from the FOS giving HFC 8 weeks to respond to my complaint on my PPI, so will wait to see what bull they speel, on a different note, i've been looking at the HMCS site ad trying to gather info on obtaining a court order as HFC have failed and have not complied with my S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) (Subject,Access, Request)after nearly 55 days they have only given me read outs from a computer concerning the loan i have had from 2004,ie telephone call logs all though i have had 4 other finance agreements three years prior from 2001-2004, they cannot or just didnt bother sending me this info, not one statement of charges etc and not a copy of the default notice they served on my account in 2005 (without me knowing), the also said that any system generated letters cannot be enclosed with the rubbish info they sent me because copies are not kept, i mean howay man, what are they like? total idiots, so do any of you know which order i need to complete to force them to comply with my request. Any pointer in the right direction would be appreciated as the HMRC site is a mine field.

Regards Gordon

I am starting a claim against HFC for ppi - can i join?

[alanfromderby]

Certainly - just send your details via the link in the announcement.

[wills7]

does anyone know when the FOS started with HFC? if my loan was taken out in 2003 whould it be pointless to complain to the FOS?

[alanfromderby]

As a bank, HFC have been regulated since 2000 - but for the sale of insurance they have been regulated since January 2005. There are numerous other factors that come into play though, as I believe that the PPI would be classed as a linked transaction to the credit agreement - on that basis, they should look at claims back to 2000.

Probably depends on the particular circumstances.

Hi All,
Just had a phone call from a DCA about my loan with These lot, she said she has got the info from HFC and wants to help, but as the conversation went on HFC did not give her the corrct info, she didnt know where i been working for the past three years, she didnt thought i was living with my parents, so i explained i was not going to give any info over the phone, and also said that because HFC have the same info regarding many issues i have with them then she should ask for all the info and not just some stupid employees account of my buisness with them, so they got none or all the wrong info, they are confused as to what issue i have with them, and now they've envolved a DCA, now we are getting somewhere, i have also recieved a letter stating that they are looking into my complaint (hope those idiots understand what mis-sold PPI means)so seem to be going in circles, but as i said i've saved and filed all communication i have had with HFC so they cannot say they are unaware, i now know that they have incorrect info relating to my personal circumstances, this list of incompitance grows longer and longer, and i am also still waiting for My S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) so i'll send them a letter in the morning (recorded)giving them a week, then i'll also phone the HMRC to ask about a court order for their non-compliance. HFC are just the most useless people i have ever known, can wait to stuff'em.
