Reclaim PPI Lloyds axes Deloitte
An undercover report in The Times claims that staff at Lloyds, Bank of Scotland and the Halifax were taught complaint handling techniques to dissuade customers from trying to reclaim PPI. The staff were briefed:
- To dissuade customers from trying to reclaim PPI
- To act as if Lloyds had never mis-sold PPI so the customer could not try to reclaim PPI
- That most claimants would give up on their PPI claim if it was rejected first time
What have Lloyds Banking Group said?
“Some of the comments made by trainers to The Times reporter are not endorsed by Lloyds Banking Group and we believe they do not reflect our high training standards or our policies. We believe the comments to be isolated and they are now being addressed.”
What have Deloittes said?
Deloitte said:
“It could not comment specifically due to client confidentiality. Our role was to process PPI mis-selling complaints from Lloyds Banking Group customers who were sold policies by the bank, in accordance with [its] policies and procedures.”
