In April 2011 the Supreme Court finally put an end to a Judicial Review challenge by banks over the way they were told to assess PPI misselling claims.

Payment Protection Insurance was sold to millions of customers who took out credit cards and loans. Some didn’t know they were being sold it, others felt forced to agree to it.

In October 2010 all banks except Santander decided to lodge a court action against the FSA over the handling of PPI claims. For customers it was another blow as it meant all claims were put on hold. The Financial Ombudsman Service became strained under the pressure of dealing with held up claims.

The Court judgment is welcome relief for customers and the banks chose not to appeal the decision. This has now allowed all existing claims to be assessed. There are still millions who haven’t put in a claim for missold PPI and it is time to lodge a claim.

It is important to remember that simply because the banks have chosen not to appeal does not mean that victory is an automatic one. Each individual PPI claim will need to be assessed and of course banks may try and reject claims.
