In the UK, selling payment protection insurance without offering all the information needed at the point of sale is vastly frowned upon. Mainly due to the fact that the PPI Claims policies are too over-priced but deficient in real insurance coverage.
It is complicated to calculate a premium because of the various factors for consideration and inclusion to the total PPI claims. The very instant that the loan is pushed through; you are free to recover money which will substantially raise the total of your entitled amount.
When summing up an equation for reclaiming a PPI you should determine how much is the exact cost of the PPI charged on you. You will find this amount on the original credit agreement. Next is to compute the amount of what you have already paid. To do this, multiply the amount of the monthly repayment by the number of months you have paid for, this product is then the sum of money you should get as a PPI reclaim or the amount you should be able to recover for a Missold PPI.
You now have two amounts which you need to add together. The resulting sum should be added with an eight percent legal and statutory interest (allowed by the law) for every year that the loan is known to exist. There should not be a question in recovering a Missold PPI if your loan is still in progress or is already compensated for.
For a loan that has been already paid off, only one condition applies to avoid time disqualification when retrieving a PPI which is: ‘the loan has been atoned for no later than six years ago’ .
