    Default ppi refund used to offset my loan

    i recently won all 3 of my PPIicon claims against HBOSicon.
    1 of the loans is still active and i recieved a cheque for £546 for ppi paid. then i got the redress letter from hbos saying that i have got a cheque for £546 and the remaining £1467 has been used to offset my loan, it states in the letter i got from the bank that they will use refunds if the account is in arrears as to reduce charges and interesticon etc,
    my account is not in arrears and is in good order and up to date. do i have the right to ask for the £1467 to be returned to me??? i thought there was certain criteria the account had to meet before the refund can be used to offset?
    any advice would be great

    I'm not 100% sure but I believe the fosicon say they must pay you by whichever method you require.

    HALIFAX: 13/01/07 Sent S.A.R - (Subject Access Request) letter (marked as rec'd 16/01)
    Paid in full in March 07

    If the PPI was mis-sold as appears to be the case with your claim then any rebate of PPI should come directly to you by personal cheque or payment into your bank account. The only time any refund can be used for any other reason is if the account is in arrears then the bank can use part of the refund to offset the amount of the arrears. They can not if you are in arrears use the whole amount of the rebate to offset the amount remaining on the loan only the arrears amount that is due.

    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.

    Default Re: ppi refund used to offset my loan

    well i called customer services regarding the money offset to the loan and was told that i would not be getting the money back as i have not paid for it.
    The refund i got of £500 odd pounds was what i had paid so far towards the PPIicon so the remaining amount is taken off the loan, is this what usually happens???? im a bit lost now.

    Hiya GT,

    That does sound right let me explain to you, the PPIicon policy cost was front- loaded onto the loan right.

    And you then pay for it monthly part of that monthly payment is the PPI policy cost and the rest is interesticon at what ever rate they charged you.

    What they have done is refunded the policy cost back into the Loan there by reducing the amount owed and the interest payable.

    What you got back was the monthly payments made to the policy cost plus a reduced amount to pay each month for the Loan.

    The only time you will get the PPI POLICY COST refunded is if the loan was paid in full before the claim started.

    Hoping this clarifies the matter for you.

    Regards

    PF

    thanks for your reply,
    i had two loans that were settled in full early.
    is the remaining PPIicon taken off the final settlement figure??? or does the insurance keep it??
    i never got much back on them, £1300 refunded on a £3200 plus interesticon ppi that ran for 9 months before being settled
    And £452 refunded on A £951 policy that ran for 6 months.

    In a loan that paid up in full early there would have been a PPIicon rebate due to you.

    But this method gets confusing as they always say more of the PPI ispaid of in the early years so the rebate would not be pro-rata.

    This i find hard to believe as the amount you pay off the PPI each month is the same.
