PPI

Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) is a method of protecting your loan or debt repayments in the event you're unable to make them due to being made redundant or suffering from long term illness.
You could be entitled to make a claim if you have had a mortgage, credit card, or other form of credit agreement with your bank. Recently the Office of Fair Trading raised the issue that clients who have taken out PPI in the past may have been mis-sold it, either by your bank not properly describing the policy or in some cases not even telling you about it at all!
For this reason, Curtis Law Solicitors has set up a claims department to specifically deal with your PPI enquiries. There are still millions of people in the UK who don't know they can claim their PPI money back and if this is you you could be owed THOUSANDS. For further information, you can contact us through our online enquiry form, freephone on 0800 008 7450, call free from mobile 0333 2400340 or text CURTIS to 82727.

What if I have used the policy or it has expired?
