If you were missold a payment protection insurance policy, you may want to know how to get your money back.
You may not be able to get the money back if the institution that sold you the policy followed the rules for PPI policies that are now in place. You do not know if this is the case until you make your claim, however. The best way to get started making the claim is to find the paperwork. The banks may have this type of paperwork on file, but they are still reeling from losing the recent court cases and are not likely to send it out to you.
What you need to do if you were affected is to find the necessary paperwork.
Consumer watch-dog groups have made a PDF document that contains the forms a person needs to fill out in order to get his money back. He needs to send this paperwork into the bank that sold him the policy. If a consumer does not have access to a printer, which does occur, he can contact the consumer watchdog organisations. If a person does not file the claim, he cannot expect to reclaim any of his missing money. The banks may contact people who were sold these policies, but they have not done so yet.
