I seem to be continuously arguing with PPI claims people.
"You may be able to claim back PPI payments that you have been mis sold."

"I don't have any."

"But you could be entitled to £3000."

"Maybe if I had taken out a PPI policy, yes, but I haven't."

"But how do you know?"

"I just do."

"Hadn't you better check?"

"No, I know I don't have any PPI. I always get asked if I want it and always refuse."

"So you don't have any PPI?"

"That just about sums it up, yes."

I get at least one of these calls a week.

As if I'd ever watch ITV.

Pikeys like Quinten only watch ITV,
and ITV2, ITV4 plus 1 etc. Him and Dawn cuddle up in front of their 95in plasma television, a bowl of McCain Micro-chips each, and watch 'Ant and Dec'. Dawn prefers 'Ant', but Quint prefers 'Dec'. They have laminated flooring. Quinten enjoys a bottled beer whilst Dawn favours the Lambrini. After a few hours of mind-melting inanity they go to 'Ritzys' in the precinct*, after which Quint has a kebab and Dawn has yet more chips. On Sundays Quint polishes the Ford before they go over to Dawn's parents for a bit, before looking at 'settees' in 'Furniture Village'.

*He doesn't drink to excess though, and probably has a 'mountain bike' which he goes out on occasionally. On roads.

+ because it's easier to clean when you're constantly dribbling from the side of your mouth.
Alright Monters? I hear you drank tea on Saturday and went running at 7:15 in the morning yesterday. Are you feeling alright?

I'm not surprised.
A jog down to the newsagent to get more fags can take it out of you.

I'll bet the rest of your 'unit' were well impressed.
I bet they bought you some 'brews' down at the Officer's Mess that night, and you high-fived everyone.

I can quite happily spend a day off sick watching Poirot and midsummer murders on ITV4
or is that itv3? I can't remember.
(PsychoChomp, Mon 19 Mar 2012, 10:49, Reply)

Both entertaining shows, esp Poirot.

I meant mainstream ITV. Or ITV1, if you prefer.
4 will occasionally show some decent films or classic TV.

I have a similar issue although often via text.
Since I've never been stupid enough to take out PPI on anything then I can't see there being any likelihood of it having been missold to me.

Oh, I get the text messages as well.
I'm of the opinion that PPI probably isn't worth the paper it's printed on, therefore I'm not going to spunk an extra £30 a month on it.

I am a little unhappy people are getting money back on it
as, like the lottery, it was rather a tax on the stupid in the first place.

A lot of people were getting it added on without their knowledge, though.
Although if you're stupid enough to not check any documentation, or do and don't notice any extras...

Yeah i get unsolicited texts from them as well.
My argument with the debt collection is currently going like this.
Them: You owe us £160! We're going to take you to court!
Me: I don't think I do
Them: Well you should investigate it.
Me: I'm not going to investigate it, you do it.
Them: We don't really do that
me: Well the office of fair trading says that you must or you'll lose your licence.
Them: Ummm, we'll get back to you in 40 days.
