If you have taken out a loan in recent years then it is well worth looking it PPI reclaims and how it could benefit you.

What Is PPI?

PPI – Payment Protection Insurance. It is an optional insurance that can be added on when you take out any type of loan or mortgage. The actual insurance itself works in different ways so you’ll have to read up on how it could work for you. However in general it protects you against times when you are unable to keep up with loan repayments due to illness and being unable to work.

It is important to read up about the policy and make sure that is going to cover what you want it for. For example some underlying health issues aren’t covered so it isn’t worth paying for the policy if you know from the outset that you are going to be unable to make a claim.

Why Is Everyone Reclaiming?

Although this is a very valid service, it isn’t for everyone! Years ago it became the norm for lenders to add on PPI without people knowing. This mean that many people were paying back more on their loan than was needed. PPI is a monthly charge which you pay for the duration of the loan which means that if your loan is taken out of a number of years, the amount can soon add up!

A few years ago people began to realise that this charge was being added on without consent and that people were paying extra – often for a service that could not be used! It was then that people, rightly so, began to claim back money they had paid without realising it.

Can I Make A Claim?

Of course every case has to be looked at individually however if you have taken out a loan that was active within the past 6 years it is likely you will be able to make a claim. You’ll need to have proof that you have been paying it – which can be found on copies of loan agreements etc.
