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 took out a secured loan with Welcome in Jan 04, lost my job in Apr 04 and was told I couldn't claim on PPI. Loan was paid off early in Aug 04 due to remortgage. I understand I can claim back the PPI cost, as I remember being told I had to have the PPI or no loan, is there a rough timescale, from start to finish, of claiming it back? The loan was for £2500, over 3yrs if thats any help.

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.
