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.
Sent a letter to Lloyds tsb on behalf of my partner with regards to the PPI applied on his 8k loan taken out in 2004. Ppi sum = 1737.58
Last week he received ny the looks of things a standard letter of refusal on teh complaint, although they are willing to refend aprox 658.99 of ppi, which is the total backdated to 13.03.09 when we first made the complaint.
The letter they sent is just them upholding the fact that thier staff are trained to explain fully to the customer the protection policy, they provide a mixture of oral and written documentation for the customer of what the policy would/would not cover, tehy provife its customers details of the costs of the insurance showing the difference in cost between loan with and loan without ppi...da....di...daaa.... .
To be honest I am not happy with this as its another fob off letter, and the fact that if i were to cancel and get a rebate, the rebate figure would be all of 172.72 if the insurance was cancelled now.
Lastly, if my other half did accept thier offer, they would refund the money off the loan.
Need to know how to takle this? We don't want to accept thier offer, nor does he want the money taken off the current loan.

Have you sent a Subject access request to get all of the data applicable to your OH if not that is how to start. Send the SAR with the Statutory fee of £10.00 (Postal Order is best) send the letter first class recorded signed for so you can track through Royal Mail.
You can be specific with what data you request although the Subject Access Request is really asking for everything. The Statutory fee is £10.00 Postal Order is fine but keep the details of the number for future reference. Send all correspondence by at least recorded to be signed for so you can track delievery through Royal Mail.
The things you should get from a Subject Access Request are:
True copies of your Consumer Credit Agreements (CCA) with the terms and conditions that were applicable to the agreement at the time the loan started.
Copies of all your statements.
Copies of all correspondence with regard to the loan, letter, fax, transcripts of phone calls or transcripts of phone calls, or other notes taken by them during the calls.
Also be specific in your request for full disclosure on any PPI added to the loans this should be identifiable on the CCA.
Specifically request the needs and wants/Customer duty of care questionnaite which should have been completed at the point of sale. This questionnaire should be filled out by the bank advisor to ensure all the relevant questions have been asked to ensure the product is fit for purpose and suitable to your needs. See this as an example.....
Quote: Can I reclaim on any PPI policy?
Your claim for compensation is dependent on when you took the insurance. PPI sales only came under the jurisdiction of the FSA on 14 January 2005. Any sales made before then are not covered by the latest rules.
However, it may still be worth complaining to your lender if you feel you have been mis-sold. If you bought before January 2005 it is likely that they will have been covered by a previous regime of rules. This means that the Financial Ombudsman Service will be able to consider these complaints. If you took PPI after January 2005, your claim is subject to the latest rules.
All of the above and more in this sticky at the top of the forum.
It's a lot of reading but some useful stuff in there
Hope this helps

Bank charge successes:
Halifax - Full settlement incl interest.
HSBC - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 75% of claim.
RBS - Settlement, goodwill no admission of liability about 70% of claim.
2 ongoing claims for bank charges with HSBC with more to come. (Supreme Court ruling could have upset these claims) They did
PPI Successes

2 claims settled in full with HSBC without FOS involvement
PPI Claims ongoing with:
Cap one Now with the FOS
Barclays. Paid up today 24/04/10 cheque received for over £4,500 and in the bank.
LTSB still have to decide on this as their SAR production was abysmal. Papers data mixed up documents missing etc
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.
Lloyds will stand by their fob off letter whether they bear any relationship to your complaint or not - you have to be prepared to take this one further as Lloyds just play delaying games
If you can keep you head when all of those around you are losing theirs try parking your helicopter somewhere else

This is true just started a Lloyds TSB claim and immediately came up against delaying tactics. Be patient the PPI issue is a lost issue in the case of banks, credit cards. mortgages etc so the ploy now is to delay any claimants for as long as possible and to hold on to PPI money for the same as long as possible. Better in their pockets than yours. Keep at them and your PPI will be recovered if it was mis-sold

Ok! So I’m ready to start this one properly, by sending the SARS letter today.
Just a note that since having the loan, my other half actually lost his job, although never making a claim on the PPI and was also made bankrupt last Jan. Would this help his claim? As I was actually going to use this as defence in claiming bank charges, before the current ruling was made.
Lloyds have written back to confirm receipt of SAR and £10 postal order, but are asking for a signed request by signing an attached form? is this ok?
the attached form has got a part for sign and date details, then it has underneath that 'OR' i will collect my parcel from a particular branch. is this a trick?
does my other half sign or collect?
also funny enough, they have sent following letter just dated January 2010. the jist of the letter says we recently wrote to you regarding your loan protection insurance policy on the loan. unfortunately enclosed is the correct version of your policy booklet and would like to apologise for any inconveinience caused, please destroy that version and use the enclseod booklet. Mmmhhhh!
it goes on to say you may be interested to knoe that your loan protection insurance policy provided life cover for your loan and access to positive job solutions, unemployments cover well he was made unemployed since he's had the cover and was also made babcrupt jan last yr.
