    Let me confirm, you opened an a/c and made payments into that a/c using the original a/c number.

    At some stage, they changed the a/c number but never notified you, is that correct?

    You cannot CCA anyone until you know what the correct a/c number is.

  • I know this isn't much help but are they harrassing you too? Mercers ring me ALLLLLLLLLLLLL day even after I sent them the harrassment letter to which they must have shredded because they haven't paid any attention to it!

    So report them, it states in the letter if they continue you will.

    Yes i oiganally had a Morgan stanley credit card, to which i have not used for years and have just been paying the dbt off, then out of the blue i got a Barclaycard statment saying Barclaycard Cashback at the top of statement with an account number at the top " which was obviously new to me" , then 1 week later i had a letter from Mercers saying i had defaulted on it and they ha tookm it over ? i queried this account and Mercers said " Remember Morgan Stanley well forget them we now have took over the debt? , i told cccs they said start sending Mercers the £1 i was sending goldfish which i did , and now Calder Financial have took over, " who are still mercers just trading under a different name !
    thanks hope this helps u understand the situation a bit more

    OK, one more question, from day one of this a/c right up to today have you always used the SAME a/c number when paying any money into the a/c.

    OK, so request your CCA under that a/c number, and send it to the company that you're dealing with NOW
