Barclays PPI fund increases by £200m
With Lloyds and RBS confirming earlier this week that they would be increasing the overall PPI compensation bill by £1.35 BILLION, up next is Barclays.
It has come as no surprise that they have followed their competitors and added a substantial sum to their own Barclays PPI fund, taking the total set aside this week between Lloyds, RBS and Barclays to over £1.5 BILLION.
This latest increase of £200m by Barclays follows on from £900m and £170m increases in the last two quarterly releases of 2014.
£1.27 BILLION in just over 6 months
With the banks and lenders who have been caught up in the biggest financial scandal ever to hit the UK seemingly unable to put a true figure on what the final bill will be, we have taken a closer look at the numbers.
Our estimations have always placed the final PPI bill at over £30 BILLION, much to the disagreement of city experts who have until recently suggested a number closer to £25 BILLION.
This latest round of figures released puts the overall PPI bill for UK lenders at over £27 BILLION, and with the end clearly a long way off it appears these so called experts have got their numbers very very wrong.
Millions still to come forward to claim
It’s generally accepted that the vast majority of people who were aware they had paid PPI have now made a claim, although many thousands are still coming forward on a daily basis.
However, with PPI often being hidden or not explained to a huge number of customers, most people who are now coming forward are not initially aware as to whether they’ve had PPI.
Our estimation puts the number of people yet to stake their claim at close to 7 million.
