You will still hear from them . Have they got your phone number ? If they phone do not confirm any security details , just say you do not deal with financial matters on the phone . Have you recieved a notice of assignment confirming this DCA has the authority to collect on the debt ?0

oh god, I would have been so scared!!
I had a letter from HSBC yesterday refusing the reduced payments and it was quite horrible! That alone was upsetting for me, so really feel for you! Well done for being so brave!0 -

These people have no legal right to do anything at all.
They will try to sight assets, e.g. car and verify if you're the debtor in question.
Other than that, it might as well be Jehovas calling round.0
