    Default Beneficial Finance

    I'm currently waiting for my PPIicon reclaim complaint to be dealt with by the fosicon, however, they have had the complaint since April last year and it still hasn't been passed to an adjudicator! Has anyone had any joy with a straight forward reclaim from these (or HFC) as i'm seriously considering getting back on to them to get it sorted as i'm struggling to make my payments to them every month and from my calculations what they owe me would pay the loan off! It just seems to be taking an age with the FOS and they told me i could only be fast tracked if i was in arrears with my mortgageicon, which i'm not.... Any advice???

    There is absolutely nothing stopping you from phoning or writing to the FOS to ask for an update on your case. I know they are busy and getting busier looking at this forum.

    Remind the FOS about the fast track issue.

    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.

    I tried that, they just said they are dealing with cases from Jan 08 and it was just a case of waiting, my case has been with them since March 08 so a long wait for me i think!

    I was wondering why people are referring these claims onto the fosicon when they could simply issue a claim in the county courticon? Are there pitfalls people are falling into when taking this course of action, or is it just considered easier to refer onto the FOS?

    HSBC recovered bank charges in full plus contractual interest
    IF.com recovered bank charges in full plus contractual interest
    Marbles recovered credit card charges in full plus contractual interest

    The choice is purely up to the individual. I advise the FOS route because if it fails you still have the option of the Court route but not the other way around. Also no FOS fees other than what the company complained against has to pay the FOS £500 per complaint.

    Also no initial Court costs paperwork etc and the risk of a legal person on the side of the bank etc being able to put up a fierce fight against a person not familiar with court. You would need to be well prepared IMO.
