Presuming you have your certificate etc I personally would not get involved. That was a past life and you I am sure would prefer it to remain the past.

Agree with luluj - not least because why would you want to involved again with a company that let you go to someone else?
Also the only one really making money out of this is everyone but you.

At the moment the law is that if a PPI is not asigned as part of the IVA and you have your CC then you can keep any post IVA PPI monies however the case is currently going through the Court of appeal, due to be heard this summer (Wright v Greene). If that law stays the same then it clarifies the position for everybody and will mean that you can make a claim for your PPI and keep it.
Personally I would wait until the outcome of that case is known and if its in the debtors favour - make a claim direct.

If you paid back 100p in the £ then any PPI claims would be yours to keep - if that is the case then you would be better off making a claim yourself and not using a claims company as they will take a large % for themselves - if you do it yourself, then you would keep it all

Good point. As long as it was 100% plus all the costs and any applicable interest etc otherwise the IP might try and snaffle it.
