Lloyds PPI fund tops £12 BILLION

It has long been claimed by British banks and lenders, and so called city experts, that the final PPI bill would stand at around £25 BILLION.

We, on the other hand, have estimated a much higher bill, taking into account the millions who have yet to stake their claim.

Our estimations place the final bill at well over £30 BILLION.

It would be higher if banks had handled consumer complaints fairly, but would we really expect that to happen?

Bank reporting season

Now is the time of the year when UK banks and lenders report their figures to the city, and inevitably admit that they have to add more to the ever increasing PPI compensation fund.

Yesterday we had the RBS / Natwest group adding £650m, and today is the turn of the Lloyds Banking Group.

Lloyds Banking Group, which includes Halifax, Bank of Scotland and Blackhorse, have been by far the biggest culprit of PPI mis-selling, and today we learn that they’ve added a further £700m to the Lloyds PPI fund.

This takes their total bill alone past the £12 BILLION mark, and the overall bill to UK lenders close to £27 BILLION, an extraordinary figure.

There is more to come

With Barclays, Santander, HSBC and the numerous smaller lenders still to declare their figures could we potentially see the PPI bill hit the £30 BILLION barrier before the end of the year?

If I were a betting man I’d certainly be placing my money that it does.
