Hiya! :hello:
Received a letter today from a company called "Westcot Credit Services Ltd" chasing my O2 contract payment. This went into my Bankruptcy back in June. My concern is it says if I ignore the letter the account will be referred to their collections team for further action.
Should I call them and give them my BR number, forward the letter to my OR, or just ignore it?

Hi Merry Happy new year. I hope this one is good to you.
I had similar letters 4 mths after my bc. I gave them my bc number,then they wanted a copy of my forms,it went on for few wks until in the end i sent all the letters to the OR. Never heard another peep out of them. On that score i would just forward the letter to the OR.DxFree impartial debt advice available from: National Debtline - Tel: 0808 808 4000 | The Consumer Credit Counselling Service (CCCS) - Tel: 0800 138 1111 | Find your local Citizens Advice Bureau

I just saved myself £90


Off to see my family in Birmingham in February - we were meant to be going up in January but problems with the car, etc meant we couldn't go. So I checked out train fares and just couldn't justify the £120
Bought myself a family railcard for £24, and have just booked the tickets. And because I have booked so far in advance got them for half price!! So £31 for me and the three girls to go to Birmingham - how cool is that?!!!
:cool:
Apart from that,
* not heard anything from the OR's office about the nil tax and HB query
;
* XHTB has said he will pay £175 child maintenance which I'm going to have to accept cos better something than nothing - will have to wait and see if he follows through at the end of the month;
* no news from from the CSA which is really aggravating cos really wanted it sorted on a formal footing.
And I have a day off from work cos I worked loads of extra hours earlier in the week, so I've been able to take my painkillers and rest which has been wonderful!! :jGet free advice before embarking on bankruptcy: CCCS 0800 138 1111 National Debtline 0808 808 4000
