Barclays Directions revoked
1 November 2023: The CMA today has revoked the Directions given to Barclays on confirmation that Barclays has completed all the actions in the Directions and that it has exited the PPI market.
One of the measures introduced in the Payment Protection Insurance Market Investigation Order 2011 (the PPI Order) was that all customers would receive an annual statement from their provider setting out the cost of their payment protection insurance (PPI) and a reminder of their right to cancel. Barclays failed to send annual statements to some Littlewoods credit card customers in 2016-2017. The directions ensure that Barclays has adequate systems in place to prevent something similar from occurring again.
