Thank you for that I have printed a copy off and will send it. Probablem is I cant find their reference number or any paperwork from them (I think I binned it all) (Been dealing with a funeral Parents and I think I may have thrown it out with their stuff).
I cant even MH address anyone have it. If they are that good they wont need a ref number will they!
Or should I wait till they write again?0 -
They really try it on!
3 Times they rang I put the phone down and they rang back. They dont have the home phone number only mobile, but I have 2 and I can see whos calling.0 -
I would send them this letter from the national debt line web site
http://www.nationaldebtline.co.uk/england_wales/temp/1152_82371.pdf
That link works now for some reason.
Odd.....

I would wait until they write again, bub.
Next time they phone, simply refuse to answer the 'DPA' question that they are legally obliged to ask, in order to verify that they are talking to the right person, and tell them you will only communicate by letter. It will, doubtless, take many such calls before they get the message, but they will, eventually.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

I do agree with you, my son who has been persued by 1st credit, now we had about four phone calls to my son, by Mackenzie Hall, who wants to speak to him. Though son was out at the times they called, l also knew about them from logging on here.
He wanted to know when son going out to work, or when l can speak to him. I said midnight, lol. I said if you want to get him put it in writing, he said we already done so, l know they did think about five years ago. We do not know what debt they are after, or if son owes any money any where. We are not a messager service, l know if he does speak to them he could be acknowledging the debt, or like one comment on here, they can twist words round. thank to all who fight on behalf of rights on people xx lindann xx0 -
You can only acknowledge a debt by making a payment or in writing. Speaking to them on the phone doesn't acknowledge a debt so don't let them try to pull that one on you.After falling off the gambling wagon (twice): £33,600 (24,000+ 9,600) - Original CC Debt: £7,885.91
