I recently completed our first yearly review, and the process wasn't even half as traumatic as I had worked it up in my head to be! Payments have increased and there was money to be owed, be we'd been expecting this due to various changes throughout the year. We had the paperwork to confirm the review and previous/future payments etc come through and it says a company has been approached to look into PPI, reading through this forum regularly, I also knew this was to be expected but I'm just curious as to whether a) I should've had a letter to give consent for this? I would sign it anyway but concerned I haven't had one? And b) if they are successful in claiming any PPI would they notify me how much they got? I would like to know so I can keep an eye into what's being paid off the IVA as we're due to pay 100p to £ early anyway, so if this would help it finish even earlier I'd like to know.
Thanks in advance!

They generally instruct without consultation, but the claims company will need your agreement to act for you, so should contact you .... at least that is how it has happened in my case. You should get mention of PPI recovered in the report following annual reviews.

Thanks for your speedy reply Foggy. I have contacted our case manager just to let her know that we have had no contact from the company they have chosen, just so it doesn't appear that we are being non-compliant and not signing. Thanks again.
