This isn't a question, this is a whinge ... I'm going through a PPI claim with Barclays, I've never experienced such incompetence. They sent a cheque out to my old address last February, I didn't know about this as I hadn't lived there for 6 months. When I finally found out I was told to go into a branch and change my address details and then they'd re-open the case. Not just send another cheque, that would be too simple. No they want to re-open and re-investigate the claim, like moving address is going to affect the outcome.
I spent an hour in a branch about 3 months ago and updated my address with them, still no cheque is forthcoming. About 3 weeks ago I found out a cheque would be sent out in 2 weeks. I took that information with a pinch of salt!
Yesterday I got a letter asking me to go to branch with proof of my new address ... NEW, IT'S NOT NEW ANYMORE!!! Honestly, to think I let these people look after my money for 20 years (I did have some once) ... OK rant over, sometimes it's good to let off a bit of steam. I can't believe my mum used to work for them ...
