Empire Stores Catalogue Credit Accounts
As with the vast majority of catalogues, Empire Stores offers a credit account to pay for purchases. These accounts are subject to credit checks and enable you to pay for purchases over an extended period of time.
PPI was often added onto these credit accounts and may have been mis-sold to you. It’s possible that PPI wasn’t appropriate for your circumstances or you may not have been told that it was added.
Empire Stores PPI Claim
Many did not carefully read the small print of the account terms and conditions, and PPI was often included to accounts without being brought to the customer’s attention. It was also often added as an afterthought, and you may have received a letter telling you that the product had been added to the account.
Before making a claim for mis-sold PPI, find out if your Empire Stores catalogue account had PPI attached to it. This applies to both the online catalogue facility and the more traditional paper catalogue.

What Is Empire Stores PPI?
There are many ways of referring to Empire Stores 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 Empire Stores if they couldn’t due to an unforeseen event, such as sickness, injury or redundancy.
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 Empire Stores were added on to a loan, credit/store card, mortgage or an overdraft.
How Was Empire Stores PPI Mis-Sold?
Some customers were sold Empire Stores PPI without knowing it had been added to their loan. Consumers say that Empire Stores advised them their loan, mortgage or credit card application would not be approved if they didn’t buy Empire Stores PPI. This meant borrowers took out the Empire Stores PPI, even though they may not need it because they didn’t want to risk losing the deal.
