What is Cheltenham & Gloucester PPI?

There are many ways of referring to Cheltenham & Gloucester payment protection insurance (PPI), these include credit insurance, credit protection or loan repayment insurance. The purpose of PPI was to help a borrower make their repayments to Cheltenham & Gloucester if they couldn’t due to an unforeseen event, such as sickness, injury or redundancy.

PPI is often confused with income protection insurance. They are two completely different products. PPI provides short-term cover and is provided alongside loan and credit products. Any pay-outs under PPI go straight to the loan provider instead of the policyholder.

Income protection insurance is designed to cover 70% of the policyholder’s income if they can’t work due to accident or sickness. This is long-term protection and can cover a person until they retire if they are too ill or injured to work.

Many PPI policies sold by Cheltenham & Gloucester were added on to a loan, credit/store card, mortgage or an overdraft.

The duration of Cheltenham & Gloucester PPI usually covers a period of 12 months allowing the borrower to time to seek employment or return to work, if appropriate.
