Frequently Asked Questions

Why have I not received a Claim Pack

Our Packs are normally sent via an email link and are instant, so please check your spam folder if you have not received an email. If we do not have your email address, then we send the pack in the post.

If you have waited for more than 7 days after asking for a pack in the post, you can either:

email us at ppitax@claimlionlaw.com and we can arrange for your forms to be re-sent to you
or download the Pack from our site.

Are the forms complicated?

Any forms we send to you allow us to act on your behalf and will have most of the necessary information filled in – the most important thing you need to do is simply read, sign and return them to us.

The first thing you will receive from us will be your Letter(s) of Authority. These forms allow us to contact your lender to start the PPI Check process.

If we need more information, we will contact you. We have a dedicated web page for providing further information and will direct you there for quick and easy process. If we need something more bespoke we will email you or call you directly.

Can you help me complete the forms?

Any form we send to you will have most of the information needed. We strongly recommend that if we ask you for information that you provide it to us using our dedicated web page. If on the rare occasion we do ask you to complete the form, then you can ask for help by emailing ppitax@claimlionlaw.com, or speak with us on 020 7112 8616.

What are your fees?

Our fees are 35% + VAT of the total settlement. If we are unsuccessful there will be no charges whatsoever. For more information around fees please see out terms and conditions here

How Long will the process take?

The whole process can take between 8 to 12 weeks. However, should HMRC ask for more information or your submission is made during the end of the financial year (April) then the process can take longer.

I have returned my pack but not heard anything from you?

Once all of the documentation has been returned, the file needs to be checked to confirm that we are in receipt of everything that we need. If anything is missing we will contact you and ask you to provide the necessary information.

How do I know what is going on with my claim?

At every key stage of your complaint we will write to you to notify you what is happening. If we need any information from you during the claim we will ring you to ask for it. We will also use text messages and emails to communicate with you, so it is important that you keep us updated with any changes in your contact details.

Why do you need my National Insurance Number?

In the same way a bank uses a Policy number or account number to identify you, the HMRC uses your National Insurance Number. HMRC will not speak or deal with us unless we are able to provide them with your National Insurance Number. Therefore, unless you can provide us with your National Insurance Number, we will be unable to act on your behalf.

I cannot find my National Insurance Number, can you help?

You can find your National Insurance number on your payslip, P60, or letters about tax, pensions and benefits.

If you are still unable to find your National Insurance Number then you will need to either call HMRC and answer a few simple questions, or Complete a CA5403 form and send it to HMRC. The first option is the fastest, but should you not be able to answer the questions, then a form will need to be sent. We can help you with this.

I have received a letter from HMRC saying my claim has been successful, what do I do?

HMRC sends a letter to you and to us at the same time, so we should receive this letter at the same time. A few days after that we should received a cheque which we need to check the figures match our records and then bank the cheque.

Once the cheque is banked and the money released to us we will send you either a cheque, or make a bank transfer to your nominated account. This process should not take longer than 14 days, but on occasion it can take a little longer. Please be aware that we cannot release money unless you have passed our anti Money Laundering Checks.

Should you received a cheque, we will be notified and we will contact you regarding our fees.

The letter from HMRC states the settlement figure, is this correct?

Part of our investigation is to work out how much we expect the settlement to be. When we received the outcome we check this against our records. You do not need to do anything, we will verify the sum is correct.

When will I get your Invoice?

Our Fees are deducted from your settlement, and when we sent you your cheque you will also receive a breakdown of our fee calculation.

I do not understand your Invoice – What should I do?

We try to keep our billing processes as simple as possible, however, if you do not understand the charges after reading this Information Suite and the literature we have sent previously, please do not hesitate email us at ppitax@claimlionlaw.com or speak with us on 020 7112 8616.

COMPLAINTS STAGES

1. Communication with lawyer

Your first point of contact will be the lawyer or legal executive assigned to your case. The lawyer will consider your case fairly and efficiently, taking into consideration the seriousness of your complaint. Should a resolution not be reached, the lawyer may pass the complaint to the senior member of the firm or request a written formal complaint be sent to our offices.

2. Communication with department manager

The lawyer will be in contact with you to discuss your complaint and try reaching a resolution. Failing this you will be asked to put your complaint in writing or electronic mail with full details of the complaint to start the formal procedure.

3. Acknowledging your complaint

We will send you a written or an electronic acknowledgement of your complaint.
We reserve the right to decline to consider a complaint that is made more than six months after the complainant became aware of the cause of the complaint. However we have discretion to waive this time limit and still undertake the complaint. We will confirm to you in writing or electronic mail if we are prepared to consider a complaint that has been made outside of the time scale of six months.

4. Investigating your complaint

Your complaint will be investigated by the lawyer and overseen by the senior partner. We endeavor to ensure that the person investigating the complaint has not been directly involved in the matter to which the complaint relates. The senior partner and the senior solicitor have the authority to settle complaints.

5. Responding to your complaint

Within four weeks of receiving your full written complaint, BlackLion Law LLP will send you either:
a) An acknowledgement, which explains that BlackLion Law LLP is in receipt of your complaint in addition to indicating when BlackLion Law LLP will make further contact with you ; or
b) A response setting out BlackLion Law LLP’s full investigation of your complaint.

Within eight weeks of receiving your complaint, BlackLion Law LLP will send you either:

a) A response setting out BlackLion Law LLP’s full investigation of your complaint; or
b) A holding response of the following:
i. Explaining why BlackLion Law LLP are still not in a position to provide you with a response, giving reasons for the further delay and stating when we expect to be able to provide you with the stated information; or
ii. Informing you that you may refer the handling of the complaint to the Legal Ombudsman if you are dissatisfied with the delay.

6. Redress

Where we decide that redress is an appropriate solution to the complaint, BlackLion Law LLP will provide you with fair compensation for any acts or omissions for which we are responsible and comply with any offer of redress which the complainant accepts. Appropriate redress will not always involve financial redress. It may involve an apology or an offer to redo the work.

7. Final response

If after receiving our response you’re still unhappy we will refer our decision to our Senior Partner who will then send you a final response.

8. If you are still unhappy

If you are still dissatisfied with our Final Response, or if a complaint is not resolved after eight weeks, you may refer the complaint to:

Legal Ombudsman
PO Box 6167
Slough SL1 0EH
enquiries@legalombudsman.org.uk
0300 555 0333

The ombudsman will only intervene once all steps of the firm’s complaints procedure have been followed. The ombudsman can review the handling of the complaint and investigate the complaint further, ultimately making a determination about the complaint and giving binding directions about how the complaint should be resolved.

The Legal Ombudsman investigates complaints about service issues with lawyers. The Legal Ombudsman expects complaints to be made to them within one year of the date of the act or omission about which you are concerned or within one year of you realising there was a concern. You must also refer your concerns to the Legal Ombudsman within six months of our final response to you.
