Watchdog uses Arnie to enforce PPI termination

Arnold Schwarzenegger has been enlisted by Britain’s financial watchdog to help raise awareness of the termination of a deadline to make a complaint about payment protection insurance (PPI).

The Hollywood giant turned politician will feature in a Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) television advert in which an animatronic model of his head is seen urging people to decide about making a PPI complaint before the deadline on 29 August 2019.

The FCA’S advert featuring the Terminator star’s likeness is aimed at prompting people to check if they had PPI and whether they want to make a complaint as the decade-long scandal draws to a close.
