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 have an account with Studio which is currently in dispute as they have not provided a proper agreement following a CCA Request.
I am in the process of claiming back all the PPI premiums ever paid which is in the region of £1500 without interest. I wrote asking Studio to refund the PPI premiums and all penalty charges, they refunded the penalty charges but are refusing to refund the PPI premiums.
What I need to know is should I send them another refund request or ask them to reconsider and if after further consideration the answer is not a positive one then they can consider the letter as a letter before action.

(if you have their refusal in writing you can submit a claim to the Financial Ombudsman Service claiming mis-selling of the PPI) providing you do have a valid claim for mis-selling. Check out the stickies at the top of the forum for reasons PPI was mis-sold here is a link and there is much more info available if you read the stickies......

This is your call it would be inappropriate for me to offer advice which you may not be agreeable to.
So the choice is yours to:
write again asking them to reconsider your claim.
tell them you do not accept their decision on the repayment of PPI and that you intend to take further action through the fos or Court (again your choice on the preferred route)
Any thoughts
All my thoughts are in blue including links to help you out.

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
PPI 4 settlements on 9 loans. FOS involvement on 7 added on the 8 % Statutory interest another 30% to both.
2 claims settled in full with LV without FOS involvement.
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.
I will make another request to Studio asking for the PPI premiums but this time i will also be wanting contractual interest(i know you think 8% statuory is the way to go) in-order to make them take the request more seriously as it more than doubles the ppi premiums.
If they dont respond then i will take up the fos solution or look into the court route.

Good luck, you have made a start on the road to getting your money back.

Update:
They wont up-hold my claim and the letter they sent had the following paragraph.
[quote]
We sell insurance on a non-advised basis and therefore only provide customers with clear balanced information to enable them to make an informed choice. On this basis we do not take into account existing insurance that a customer may have in place nor do we make any recommendation on the suitability of the product
[end quote]
Oh and they remind me of my rights to refer the matter to the fos
Anyone have any thoughts.

I have tried exactly the same with Studio. They refunded the charges but refused to refund the PPI payments quoting the same wording.
Any advice on how to proceed would be appreciated.
Hi, you might want to take a look at the industry practice regs which were reported in Oct 2008 RE: PPI, Studio now known as ACE are one of the companies that were looked at for the PPI. info@cc.gsi.gov.uk
i found some interesting facts from this re: Freemans PPI.
also like to say i got excellent advice and help from BankFodder re: PPI. Within a couple of days sending letter all PPI dissapeared from my account like it never existed. No explanation/no apologie/no regard to the fact that this may have caused an unfair advantage in there favour. But hey....I havnt finished yet.
Claiming PPI from Studio Catalogue
premiums ever paid which is in the region of £1500 without interest
