Redress paid to customers complaining about the sale of

Which? has long campaigned against the sale of PPI on credit

payout is finally starting to speed up but last year's compensation of nearly
£2 billion is less than a quarter of what lenders expected to refund. Too many
people are still finding the claims process too lengthy, the banks must
streamline the process to make it easier for people to claim.”
