/ Overview

What is Plevin?

Commission taken on PPI was often in excess of 70% of the premiums. The Plevin ruling allows anyone who was charged excessive commission — which was not disclosed to them — to bring forward a claim for repayment of all premiums and interest.

Mrs Susan Plevin fought against Paragon Personal Finance and won, because she wasn't informed about a 71.8% commission secretly paid to a broker. In November 2014 the UK Supreme Court ruled that failing to disclose high commissions on PPI policies created an unfair relationship under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 — setting a landmark precedent.

There is no official deadline for Plevin claims, and you don't need paperwork to begin.

/ Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

01What is Plevin?+
The Plevin case began when Mrs Susan Plevin was sold a Payment Protection Insurance policy alongside a secured loan in 2006. The lender had been earning a large commission from her PPI premiums and did not disclose this. In November 2014 the UK Supreme Court ruled this created an unfair relationship under the Consumer Credit Act 1974, awarding Mrs Plevin compensation and setting a landmark precedent.
02What if I already made a PPI claim — can you help me?+
If you previously received a full refund of your PPI, the commission was already refunded and you cannot claim again on Plevin. If you weren't awarded compensation despite your lender defending your PPI claim, or never made a PPI claim, we may still be able to help.
03What does it cost?+
You only pay if your claim succeeds. A fee of between 15–30% plus VAT applies on successful claims (depending on the level of redress secured). A cancellation fee may apply outside the 14-day cooling-off period.
04How long does the claims process take?+
We work on a No Win No Fee basis. There may be disbursements that we have to pay out — you will not have to pay these because we secure funding from a company set up to deal with cases like these.
05Plevin PPI vs mis-sold PPI — what's the difference?+
A mis-sold PPI claim relates to how the policy was sold to you. A Plevin claim relates to undisclosed commissions taken from your premiums. Even if your PPI policy was not mis-sold, a Plevin claim may still succeed.
