Increasing PPI Claims Numbers Because of Dwindling UK Economy


UK is currently entering a double-dip recession and is at risk of a triple-dip recession according to economists. Low consumer activity and many markets fluctuating at the same time causes “false stability” in most economies and industries. Analysts report that the lowering economy is a factor in the increase of PPI compensation claims in the recent months.


The UK’s economic crisis continues to increase, leaving the cost of living to continually increase month after month. While industrial improvements in mining and construction prospered in the last two months, analysts estimate that these are only tethering on residential investments. This means that without a stable influx of construction and mining markets from different industries, the sudden growth may just be a shot in the dark.

The Financial Ombudsman receives 2,000 mis sold PPI complaints daily. In its annual report, the FOS stated mis sold PPI makes up a third of the work it had done in 2012-2013. Recently, the FOS is increasing its workforce by 1,000 personnel as a result of the increasing number of PPI claims.

Families interviewed by different news correspondents express that household bills are going up week per week. Some said that UK’s economic depression recently is the biggest financial drop they have seen in 40 years. Seaside businesses have been suffering and some had already gone from the industry.
