overdraft protection, does it come under the remit of PPI?
I had an account that was closed in 2004. Are PPI claims restricted to 6 year rule?
Sorry if this info is else where on the forum, but have searched and found very little about overdraft protection.
Trucker
First I have heard of overdraft protection
IMO it will be the same as PPI as it will be an expensive insurance policy to protect if your overdraft gets out of hand.
Claims are not restricted to 6 years you can claim back as far as you want and you can claim and complain if you have only recently become aware of the issue of mis-selling. Companies must by law retain any documents for at least six years after the last transaction on an account.
I will have a look for overdraft protection to see if I can turn anything up.
Have you tried googling it?

Please do not PM me for advice as it may be sometime before I can respond.
Keep at them. Do not give way and do not accept all they tell you, they will delay and stall for as long as they can to prevent repaying you your mis-sold PPI.
Yes i have tried googling it. The is a lot of info about regarding PPI, but very little which specifically relates to overdraft protection. It was my hunch that it was one in the same thing.
I am just about to go off to work, but will post up a more detailed version of my story tomorrow.
An overdraft occurs when withdrawals from a bank account exceed the available balance which gives the account a negative balance - a person can be said to be "overdrawn".
If there is a prior agreement with the account provider for an overdraft protection plan, and the amount overdrawn is within this authorised overdraft, then interest is normally charged at the agreed rate. If the balance exceeds the agreed terms, then fees may be charged and higher interest rate might apply.
You should go ahead and claim if you believe it has been mis-sold, but be sure to start with a Subject access request.
