PPI is a type of insurance, which is often sold when you take out a loan or credit card. Previously people had been claiming for the refund of policy on the basis of it being 'mis-sold' to them, meaning it was not suitable for them. This type of claim has now closed.
However, you may be able to claim again or for the first time if the policy included a commission paid to the broker you weren't aware of. This type of claim has no time limit and is sometimes referred to as PPI 2.
BACKGROUND
An independent financial broker or lender is supposed to act in your best interests and not in the interests of the insurer that they have recommended to you. If your broker/lender has received commission payments from an insurer and kept this hidden from you, or they informed you that they would receive a commission but did not say how much the commission was and how much this would cost you, then this is a breach of their professional duties and you may have a claim.
HAVEN'T PPI CLAIMS ENDED?
The time limit to claim for the mis-selling of PPI has now passed. BUT, there is no time limit for a commission you were not aware of. If this commission was not disclosed to you, you could be entitled to a refund of all your premiums plus interest.
IF MY BROKER GOT A COMMISSION, WHY DOES THAT AFFECT ME?
In most cases involving a hidden commission, the commission was not paid by the insurer to the broker, it was paid by you without you realising. The commission was added on top of the monthly premiums you paid which accrues interest over the term of the agreement.
