Has time run out for me to claim back money for PPI?

The Financial Conduct Authority set a deadline of 29^th August 2019 for PPI complaints and delivered a nationwide communications campaign. Therefore if you have not already complained, you won't be able to claim money back for PPI.

If you couldn’t complain within the time limit because of your personal circumstances then you can write to us making a complaint and we will assess all information provided to decide if there were any ‘exceptional circumstances’ and whether we will therefore accept your complaint despite the deadline.

If there were exceptional circumstances that prevented you from making a complaint prior to the PPI deadline of 29^th August 2019, please submit your complaint with your name, address and any previous name(s) and addresses that might help us to identify you, as well as the details of the exceptional circumstances.

What is Payment Protection Insurance (PPI)?

Payment Protection Insurance is insurance that could cover monthly repayments on credit agreements, such as unsecured loans, mortgages and credit cards. The payment protection policy helps if the person, who takes out the protection dies, has an accident, is sick and unable to work or becomes unemployed, depending on the level of policy cover that was taken out. The insurance company pays the monthly repayments (or a percentage of them) on the policyholder's behalf for a fixed period, or the outstanding balance is cleared in the event of death.

What is Card Repayment Protection (CRP)?

Card Repayment Protection is a form of Payment Protection Insurance sold on credit cards. CRP premiums were charged monthly as a percentage of the outstanding balance on the credit card.

Which Products did you sell PPI on?

Canada Square Operations covers the following products which sold PPI or CRP:

Egg Card and Egg Money Card*
Citi Card**
Egg Loan and Egg Mortgages
CitiFinancial Loans and Future Mortgages

*If your Egg Card or Egg Money account was transferred to Barclaycard please contact Barclaycard directly on 0800 282 390

**If your Citi Card was transferred to NewDay (previously known as opus/SAV) please contact them directly on 020 7160 8800 if you have any concerns on PPI cover on your account.

I previously made a PPI complaint can I still complain about Plevin?

The deadline to submit your PPI complaint has now passed, as of 30^th August 2019 Canada Square Operations are no longer able to accept any new PPI complaints, this also applies to complaints relating to any potential unfair commission that may have been present on the account.

You contacted me some time ago telling me that I may have been mis-sold PPI / CRP. Is this letter still valid and what do I need to do to register my complaint?

The deadline to make a complaint relating to PPI has now passed, as of 30th August Canada Square Operations will no longer accept any new PPI complaints, this includes any complaints which would be registered off the back of previous letters from us.

My complaint has been upheld, when will my money be paid?

If you are entitled to receive a refund, we will write to you to confirm how we have calculated your refund. We will provide any refund payment by cheque within 25 working days of the date of our final response letter. This is the letter that provides the outcome of your complaint investigation. If you have changed your name, we will write to you requesting identification evidencing your change. Please note that we will be unable to pay any refund until we have received valid documentation.

If you have a debt relief order, bankruptcy order or you are in an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) which was entered into after the sale of the PPI policy and a refund is due, it will be sent directly to the Official Receiver or Insolvency Practitioner.

If this is the case we will explain this clearly in the letter we send you with our calculation breakdown.

Can you pay the money directly into my current account?

Any redress that is due will be sent directly to the former account holder(s) in the form of a cheque as we are unable to send the funds electronically.

Can you pay the money to someone else?

Redress will only be paid to the complainant and not a third party person, such as a Claims Management Company or persons making a complaint on behalf of the customer. However should you be in an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement), the redress will be sent directly to them. If you are making a complaint on behalf of someone who is deceased the redress will be paid directly to the executor of the estate.

I am in an active Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) or have been made bankrupt, who will receive the redress?

If you are in an active IVA or have been made bankrupt after the sale of the PPI policy, any redress due will be paid directly to the insolvency practitioner or the company managing your insolvency arrangement.

Once you have made your complaint, it may be worthwhile contacting them to inform them that you have submitted a complaint to ensure that they still require any redress that is paid.

How is PPI compensation calculated?

As a general rule, if your complaint is upheld and you are due a refund it will include all insurance premiums paid, interest on those premiums and where applicable, interest calculated at 8% (less basic tax). A full breakdown of how your refund was calculated will be included in your final response letter.

Is there tax payable on any refund I might receive?

From 1 October 2013, the tax laws changed and Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs (HMRC) requirements mean we must deduct income tax at the basic rate (currently 20%) from any interest paid. HMRC treat the additional payment which relates to 8% interest as taxable income and as such we will deduct income tax at the basic rate.

If you are not liable for income tax at all, you can reclaim any tax deducted from HMRC.

My account was sold and is still open, what do I need to do?

If your account has been sold, when calculating the amount of redress owed to you we will consider our own records and where possible contact the current owner of the account to obtain relevant information about your account.

If your account is still open you may wish to contact the current owner to make a payment to either clear or reduce any outstanding balance remaining on your account.

What can I do if I am still not happy with your decision?

In your final response letter we will have detailed if you have the right to refer your complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).

The Financial Ombudsman Service was set up by Parliament to resolve individual complaints about financial services. They can give a free and unbiased answer to mis-sold PPI complaints procedures. You can contact the FOS as follows:

We will liaise directly with the FOS to deal with complaints as quickly as we can. In the meantime we will be unable to discuss the complaint with you, whilst the FOS completes their investigation.
