They gave all the correct words on the phone but trust me I'll be checking the letter, might even post it or pm it to get checked. For now I'm jumping up and down with excitement, its over half of DH debt and will leave us with only one DCA to get rid of.That is fantastic. :beer:

Who was the debt with?
I am getting the impression that there are some good F&F deals to be had at present. Another thread mentioned BLS were giving good deals on LTSB debts.
Could it be that the credit crunch has affected the market price that bad debts change hands at? Would it be worth having a sticky to compare F&F deals like the credit card board has for unofficial balance transfer offers?0 -
