PPIs are expensive and have been linked to higher risk of some problems. Talk with your doctor before taking them for longer than two weeks. Be sure you have a good reason to take the PPI, and take it for the shortest time possible.
PPIs interact with some common prescription drugs. This can increase the risk of heart attack and even death. If you take Plavix, talk to your doctor about whether you should take a PPI. Both the prescription and over-the-counter versions of PPIs are usually more expensive than antacids and H2 blockers. If you are worried about cost, talk to your doctor. He or she can help you find the least expensive medicine that will work for you. You may have had other fees deducted from the pay-out, so you should ensure that the amount you are attempting to reclaim is just the tax element.
You also need to include on the form any other taxable income that you received in the tax year — including the state pension. You normally have four years from the end of the tax year in which the overpayment arose to claim a refund.

If you do find PPI on your statements, start your claim right now. If you were mis-sold PPI on a product you paid off within the past six years, you may be in luck and be able to get information straight from the lender. As mentioned, the six-year mark is from when your debt has been closed or is considered inactive. It does not start from when the account opens. For example, if you had PPI on a mortgage you took out in and you paid off the mortgage in , the bank will still have the details about the account, because it was less than six years ago.
As long as you have the proper paperwork and information to provide to the bank that you had the policy and that it was mis-sold, they are required to investigate your case. You can claim back as many years beyond the six-year time limit if you believe that PPI was mis-sold to you.
If you have all of the correct paperwork, it will make the claim easier. You might not know if you had PPI on any of your financial products, or when they may have been mis-sold. If this is the case, you can contact your lender, a creditor, or a PPI claims company to find out this information for you. If PPI is discovered and you believe that it was mis-sold to you, you are able to make a claim. You need to be aware of the PPI deadline.
