    hello,
    im looking for some advice please,
    my problem is as follows, i have a BOI advantage credit card since approx 2007 with a limit of 3100, i was made redundant in feb 2011 and was out of work until thankfully may 2012, whilst out of work i had struggled to meet my repayments and unfortunetly ran up interest to a total of around 3700 at its most. when i returned to work i contacted boi card services and agreed to repay 100 a month, which is fine and my card is now down to 3200 again.

    My question is this, was i or am i still entitled to claim on my ppi since i was out of work for over a year? was completely unaware i was even paying it to be honest but was told by a friend that i may be entitled to claim?

    any help would be greatly appreciated.



    Also i have two loans paid off with boi 3000 and 10000, and am pretty sure that i had ppi on them too. i am quiete sure that it was sold to me as part of the loan and i was certainly not aware i was even paying it until iv heard so much about ppi recently. again all help is much appreciated

    Thanks in advance
