swinton ppi help!!

[abi_cutie09]

Thank goodness for CAG, my saviour!

I hope this is the right place,

 

I have had car insurance with swinton for a couple of years now,

To my shock, I recieved a letter from them this morning,

 

Saying that I have purchased a ppi by swinton and

THE FSA have found failures with their process for selling ppi, and

I may be intitle to a refund.

 

I dont remeber purchasing ppi with them and I never recieved t&c's or a policy,

 

Please can somebody advise me, I can scan the letter if need be,

I just need the letter putting into barbie language for me to understand, lol

Any takers??

This is the letter that was sent,on the back it says

Date of ppi premium of ppi policy

11.12.2007 £20

 

[abi_cutie09]

this was also included along with t&c's

[dx100uk]

tbh this will not be worth much, poss max £35-40 on a refund

up to you its a n easy reclaim as they are admitting misseling.

Thanks dx,

The way they have written this letter and the fact it was out of the blue kind of got me a little confused, I guess I should just call them and tell them I didn't know anything about it?

 

£20 ..... in my house every penny counts ...lol,

Thanks again,

hi, i had one too. was a rip. £20 for a policy worth £1.21, or nothing really. nice easy money as they not only admitted but got their wrists slapped by the fsa. see this bbc article. 350,000 of us being conned x £15 or £20...

got one myself.....just phone the number and they'll refund the money

[abi_cutie09]

I phoned them and they said the cheque is in the post!

Even if it is only 20 odd pound!

And yesterday my hubby got a letter aswell!

I can't believe they added ppi to my insurance without even telling me!

Great idea, I'll ring them tomorrrow. TY

Motor Policy's didn't have PPI - but it is welcome they got hit.

thanks buzby for that great link. i saw in my letter that the policy part of the £20 was £1.21. the rest was a 'fee'. gotta laugh, now!
