    Hi, just wondering if anyone could advise me on this, l was advanced a personal loan from Bank of Ireland in Nov 06, amount 15,000 plus PPI of 1700. I was made redundant in may 08 and the PPI paid the term loan for a year but I had to reconstruct it across a longer period after this as I wasn't able to afford the payments. To date I have paid back roughly 26,000 and never missed a payment. There is still a balance of 5,500 left to pay plus the bank will take their quarterly interest rising the amount back up again so in reality I'm paying interest on interest. I'm a single parent and have barely nothing left after bills are paid each week. Even if I could get the quarterly interest stopped I would be a bit happier. I'll end up paying back around double what I borrowed. I would have been better off going to a loan shark.

    Hi coco boo
     
    Thank you for contacting us on Boards.
     
    To fully investigate this query for you, it will be best to contact a Customer Advisor within the branch the loan was taken out with. They will have full access to the initial loan application and also a detailed account of the lending history. The Advisor can answer all your lending queries relating to the PPI attached to the loan.
