I'm out now Smiling notice has gone today and I will be flying to Belfast this time in two weeks. I don't think GS/GAME will be going from the high street within the next 5 years but 10 years from now and it will mostly be gone for sure. New place is stable, kids will always want lego and soft toys.

How come you signed up to make PPI payments in the first place? Every time I got asked if I wanted PPI I just said no and that was the end of it

cos I was 18 and wanted a loan to go party on & put up my nose. Didnt know what ppi was and just thought it was part and parcel of the loan agreement.

At the end of the day it's still my money, not like it's a free payout.

Exactly. We've all paid thousands to insurance companies over the years. You've had the benefits of the insurance and now you're getting the money back as well. Not trying to argue with you, I'm just jealous

Also, you got the loan under false pretences presumably, so you deserve all you get... well, you did until you got your money back

Decent payout that Cool
If you did it yourself directly with the bank, just make sure you have got all that you are entitled to as they often lowball customers who are happy to receive 'some free money'
