Letter requesting signature after ppi claim?

[N1son]

Hi

 

I Recently made a ppi claim to Tesco credit card

they responded saying they had signed agreement showing I had requested the cover,

the thing is I applied for the card online so they cannot have a 'signed' copy of any agreement.

 

I sent a letter disputing their response and asked for a copy of the cca enclosing the cheque for £1.

 

I have now received a letter asking for my signature

 

Dear Mr ******

 

Thank you for your recent letter requesting personal data held by the bank

 

We require a specimen signature supplied with this request that must match that of which we have on record

and to ensure that we are releasing the account information to the correct party we need to verify your identity

so please return a copy of this letter containing your signature

 

On receipt of this we will verify the signature and any information required will be forwarded to you.

 

 

Question

- is this their way of getting my signature so they can copy onto an agreement or a genuine requirement?

I'm thinking if I sign over the type they would struggle to copy it ?

 

Any advice gratefully received or a copy of any relevant reply letter

knickers and twisted me thinks

 

there is NO requirement fo a sig for a CCA request

 

however, as you signed up online, and the PPI box was ALREADY TICKED

i would point that out and also

could they ACTUALLY investigate your claim PROPERLY

 

as they obviously have not!!

 

any further delay will result in a complaint to the FOS

that will cost them the £850 fee.

Thanks Dx it just seems like a delay tactic to me or as my OH sees it an attempt at skulduggery !!!
