What is Plevin PPI Claim?

If you previously had any type of loan or credit card with Payment Protection Insurance (PPI), it’s likely it was mis-sold and you could have a claim.

The unusual ‘Plevin’ name comes from Susan Plevin who took Paragon Personal Finance to court in 2014. After reading the small print in her PPI contract, she realised that over 71% of the PPI fee was actually hidden commission paid to the finance provider. The Supreme Court agreed this was unfair and ordered compensation to be paid.

This case set a precedent for all PPI customers to potentially claim if they too had high levels of hidden commission in their PPI premiums. This means if more than 50% of your PPI fee went to the lender as hidden commission, you are due compensation.

Am I eligible to make a Plevin PPI claim?

If you meet any of the following criteria, you could be eligible to claim:

  • You have never claimed PPI
  • Your PPI claim was rejected
  • You had a PPI refund but it was only for the ‘Plevin’ part (also known as the ‘tipping point’ offer)
  • You bought PPI before 6th April 2007 and it is still ‘open’ after 6th April 2008
  • You bought PPI after 6th April 2007
  • You ever had an MBNA or Capital One credit card

1.2 million people in the UK could be affected by Plevin as it even applies to anyone who had a PPI claim rejected in the past.

Please check back soon, we are currently calculating the average amount per case. 

How is the compensation amount calculated?

Any PPI policy that included commission above 50% can be compensated. The amount you get back is dependent on how much commission your policy had over the 50% threshold. For example, if your policy had a 65% commission fee, you would be liable for a 15% refund. The FCA has also advised that the historic interest rate plus 8% should also be considered when calculating Plevin PPI compensation amounts.

What is the difference between PPI and Plevin?

Plevin cases are concerned with the commission that was included in the PPI premium and which was not disclosed to the customer. PPI cases on the other hand are concerned with the mis-selling of the insurance policy to the customer and whether the customer actually needed the product to start with. This means even if you were not mis-sold PPI you could still have a Plevin claim.

What’s the Plevin PPI deadline?

Yes you can. Plevin cases come under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 and do not have a deadline.
