Barclays PPI compensation pot rises
Barclays have today confirmed that they are having to set aside more money to compensate customers for the mis-selling of Payment Protection Insurance (PPI).
The additional £150m added to the Barclays PPI compensation pot is becoming something of a regular occurrence.
In fact the Barclays fund, which includes claims against Barclaycard, has increased by almost £1.5bn in under a year, taking it beyond the £5.5 BILLION mark.
When will it stop?
Like many banks and lenders Barclays initial estimates of how much the biggest financial scandal to hit the UK were way off the mark.
Indeed some so called city experts continue to claim that the end is nigh, despite clear indications that the compensating of innocent customers has years left to run.
Our estimations show that up to 7 million customers have still to come forward, with the majority of these still unaware that they’ve had PPI added to their finance agreement(s).
More bad news for Barclays
In addition to the £150m being added to the Barclays PPI compensation pot, the troubled bank has also confirmed it has set aside £800m by way of compensation for rigging the foreign exchange rate.
From LIBOR rigging to foreign exchange rate rigging, from mis-selling PPI to mis-selling Packaged Bank Accounts, it is becoming apparent that if it is possible to cheat and manipulate in order to rake in profits our banks are more than willing to do so.
Despite the fines and compensation bills rising Barclays did achieve £1.3bn in profits for the first three months of the year, which begs a question…..who have they ripped off in order to generate these profits, and why aren’t the regulators fining the bank more to deter them?
