What puts you off from reclaiming mis-sold PPI?
It was announced this week that the majority of people likely owed compensation for PPI haven’t claimed it yet. There are only two years left for people to claim, and given many could be owed thousands plus a new ruling means just having had PPI makes it likely you were mis-sold, we want to know what is putting people off. So if you've an inkling you've had PPI in the past, what puts you off reclaiming? Please select the single biggest reason which applies to you.
