Thread: Wants to claim PPI for Barclaycard due to unemployment

Hi,
I need some information and help before claiming PPI from Barclaycard. I recently lost my new job due to a bad verbal reference that was given by my previous employer. I was dismissed from my previos job on the grounds of gross misconduct although I have made an appeal and the issue is still under process. I worked for two years for that company and the very next day after my dismissal I was offered a job with a rival company but after three days my employment was ceased due to the bad reference. Can I still make a claim as I was not sacked from my new job due to gross miscondut? Any suggesions please? Thanks

Best regards,
Epman

Hello Alanalana,
I think I have placed it at the wrong topic. It is not about the miss sold claim. It was about the actual claim I wanted to make for the services PPI are providing and what I had been paying for. As they say in there terms and condition If I am sacked due to gross misconduct they will not process my claim. I just wanted to know if bad reference does consider as gross miss conduct? Will they consider my ex job as the reason to deny my claim? Thanks for you help

Hi this is I found in there web site: And thank you for threard, I will go through it.


What is not covered?
We will not pay benefit for unemployment that occurs under any of the following circumstances:

- where you knew you were going to be made unemployed, or you had reason to believe that it was likely to happen, at the start date; or
- where you have not been in continuous work for 6 months with one or more employers immediately before your employment ended (if you were not working for 2 weeks or less, we will not count this as a break in your employment); or
- your conduct (including misconduct such as fraud, illegal activity, dishonesty or anything that led to or might have led to a disciplinary procedure), your resignation, any unemployment of a voluntary nature, or where you have taken early retirement; or
- where your work is seasonal or temporary and in both cases unemployment is a regular feature of your work; or
- where a fixed-term contract reaches its expected expiry date unless you have an employment history with your employer and none of the above circumstances apply.
Subsequent claims
If you become unemployed (for example following a period of temporary work) within 3 months of a previous claim and we have not paid the maximum aggregate amount allowed, we will consider your claim as being part of the original claim. We will continue to pay this claim as long as the aggregate amount is not more than the maximum benefit we pay. We will waive the requirement to be continuously employed for claims that occur within 6 months of a previous claim.
