Put PPI check at top of bank holiday to-do list, urges FCA
A survey by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) found that the average UK adult has a list of 33 tasks to complete each week.
About 60% feel overwhelmed by the volume of tasks they need to complete, from sorting out finances to walking the dog and mowing the lawn.

Two-thirds (67%) feel like they are operating on autopilot, meaning to-do lists get forgotten.
Three-quarters plan to use the long bank holiday weekend to tick things off their job lists.
“Almost half the population say a deadline is the motivation they need to get things done, so we’re urging everyone to make sure they get one important thing ticked off their list this bank holiday, and that’s checking whether they’re eligible to claim for PPI, said FCA CEO Andrew Bailey.
