A common reason for a mis-selling of a PPI claims are that the lender did not offer a choice. The reason for a possible mis-sold First Plus PPI is as follows:
- First Plus PPI claimed that the borrower had a poor credit rating so they were unlikely provide the loan without ppi
- A First Plus PPI is for the borrowers own protection
- First Plus would not sell a loan to a borrower without steady employment
- First Plus added the ppi without informing the borrower
- First Plus advised that the borrower would get a PPI cash back
There are many other reasons why ppi has been added to the loan without really giving the borrower an informed choice. As ppi is normally a secondary purchase when taking out a loan or credit card, the decision to take out ppi is often on the spot and the full implications of ppi are not explored.
