Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I have been going back through previous loans and credit cards to check if PPI was added. Have found a large single premimum ppi for a loan we took out with First National Bank in 2001. Is it much more difficult to claim back single premium ppi that was issued prior to the 2005 change of regulation? I also wondered if anyone else has dealt with First National Bank (now GE Money I believe) and should I send SAR request to GE Money ?

Many thanks as always for invaluable help....

Hello Feebs,
It is only more difficult due to the fact that the Financial Ombudsman will probably not investigate your complaint. But there is no reason why you cannot do it and if they refuse, you can issue a small claims county court claim against them.
If the first national bank is now ge money send your SAR to them, they will very quickly tell you if it is not

Feebs not sure which of these would be your GE why not write a letter and copy it to them all it will give them something to do in responding rather than selling more PPI.

Busy little forum and going to get much more so before the credit crunch puts them all out of business
Many thanks for all this.....I'm grateful for any nuggets of help I can get. I was quite horrified when looking back at credit cards (MBNA) and past loans all paid off to see how much PPI I've paid out. My MBNA is the worst, this wasn't a single premium but as expensive looking at the monthly repayments !!
