PPI Complaints and Enquiries

Exceptional Circumstances

However if you have failed to submit a complaint before within the deadline due to exceptional circumstances only, you can contact us on our dedicated telephone on 0345 450 7935*, write to us at the address below or email us on custcare.ppi@aib.ie giving us the information.

Information we require

We will ask you to explain clearly with reasonable supporting evidence the circumstances that have caused you to complain after the deadline and why you consider those circumstances to be exceptional. We will review this information and respond to you.

Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS)

If you have received our final response to a complaint and you are not happy, you can complain to the FOS. You’ll need to submit your complaint within six months of the date of our final response letter. In general FOS will only look at complaints outside of six months where there are exceptional circumstances.

If you have already submitted your complaint to FOS you should continue to make contact with them if they haven’t provided an update to you.

I received a letter saying my complaint has been closed as No PPI policy was found but I have since discovered PPI was included.

Send us the details including copies of evidence and we will review your complaint only if you can show there was a PPI policy in place and complete a full investigation using the evidence provided.
I want to claim tax back from my payment?

You may be able to claim back the tax from the payment that you received. You will need to contact HMRC. Proof of the tax retained is contained in our payment of redress.
