I've just been threatened by Triton

Right chaps, I'm back! :rolleyes:
I also need further help, if possible please.
I CCAd Triton as was suggested, and got a reply from RBS (?) stating that they could not locate the account with the Triton reference number I had given. As I hadn't written to RBS requesting a CCA, I ignored their letter and waited for a response from Triton.
Non was forthcoming, and I was just about to send out the 'account is dispute' letter, when through my letterbox this morning came a letter from.... (drum roll) Moorcroft!
It's from their pre-court division and they want £8632.68 within the net seven days, or they will take me to court etc etc etc.
Now, my agreement was with Triton, and I have been faithfully paying them £80 per month, every month without fail.
So, my question is - what next? Do I CCA Moorcroft, tell them to get lost, or do I go to court? (I'd rather not go to court if it's all the same...)
TIA,

Isn't the account now in dispute as you have not received the CCA request?The Daily Mail

Hi Marcowil,
I think it is in dispute, but I'm confused. I pay Triton who took the debt over from Tesco, I CCA'd Triton, but RBS replied saying they can't locate my file using the reference number Triton use, and now, I get a letter from Moorcroft on behalf of Tesco, whom I haven't paid since sometime last year.0 -
Right,
I've come to a decision/conclusion.
The account is in dispute, and I can stop payment if I want. I need to write the acount in dispute letter to both Triton and Moorcroft, telling them to:
1: Prove it - Triton
2: Cease and desist - Moorcroft
Is this right, and if so, where are the template letters? I can't seem to find them anywhere
Thanks!

Jus a quick question (or 2!)
I have received a statement from Tesco showing that I took out the loan on 6 March 2007. This means it comes under the old legislation, is that right?
Also, if I stop the payment, and I do end up going to court (if/when they find the CCA), will that not mean the judge will look less favourably on me, rather than if I was paying?
Sorry for all the questions,
Tracy0 -
Sorry I can't answer your questions Tracy so am posting to bump your post, hopefully someone will be along to help soon.
Take care.0 -
So, after my last post, I duly cancelled my DD to Triton, and wrote a bemused letter to Moorcroft and the 'account in default' letter to Triton.
This morning, I receive a letter from Tesco (who the account was originally with), using the same address as Triton, again stating that they cannot action my letter using the reference I have given, they do not hold my signature on record and please provide them with another form of identifcation.
They also ask for the original account number and sort code - again.
Now, I asked Tesco twice last week, and they stated categorically that they had 'sold on the debt to Triton' and no longer owned it. So, why am I now receiving letters from Tesco, using Triton's address?
What do I do now? HELP!!!!
TIA,

Anyone?
I've also just been told that I should keep paying, and that if it was to go to court the judge wouldn't look kindly on me requesting the original copy etc.
Also I was told that Triton/Tesco/whoever only have to send a true copy of he agreement, not a copy of my agreement, and so, if it went to court, the judge wouls ask if I took out the loan, when I answered yes, they would say 'what's the problem?' and find in favour of Tesco/Triton etc, leaving me with all the costs. Basically, it's not worth my time and effort to pursue this, as Tesco/Triton would win as I was being awkward.
I'm so confused (and quite worried)0 -
Creditors will tell you anything [lies] so that you will pay up.
I suggest that you contact the CAB and ask them to contact them on your behalf.0 -
Thanks, Always,
The information I've just been given came from the National Debtline. The lady on the phone basically saif that I should keep on paying, and not pursue the CCA route as I would end up in trouble.
I'm just quite worried as I've stopped the payment, and don't fancy going to court.0
