Nov. 24, 2010 - PRLog -- Preparing for the worst, MBNA are setting aside a staggering £365m specifically for the compensation of customers who have been mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI). The Financial Services Authority’s (FSA) impending complaint handling rules appear to have sparked the decision of MBNA’s owners, Bank of America, to secure a substantial compensation fund.

Due to be introduced on the 1st December, the new guidelines are intended to prevent banks automatically rejecting PPI claims and stipulate that lenders must appropriately deal with all complaints; refunding customers where due. This is encouraging news for many MBNA PPI customers yet to make their claim. However, the FSA have stated that claims are climbing despite negative press coverage of the bank’s handling of complaints. Statistics suggest that PPI claims will persist in dominating the FOS workload and may continue to increase by 500,000 claims per year, over the next 5 years. With this accumulation of claims and the current banker freeze on claims processing, analysts predict many claimants could wait up to a year for their grievance to be resolved.

PPI Return would like to reassure PPI customers that if they have insurance to cover their loan or debt repayments in the event of accident, sickness, reduced income or loss of employment; they can still complain about the method used by MBNA to sell them the policy. PPI Return http://www.ppireturn.co.uk observed that many banks have falsely insisted customers needed PPI to be approved for a loan or credit and even sold the policy without their knowledge. In some cases, sales-driven staffs were encouraged to push sales and mis-sell cover that was ultimately ineffective.
