    No but some people ARE daft before they find MSE (not saying this poster is!) and TBF he/she was asking about a different company to any mentioned on the thread so far.

    Maybe he/she wanted anyones experiences with the company he named but didn't know how/where to search for it?

    Cut people some slack.
    Thanks glad we are not all perfect! you are right cut some slack please, sometimes it takes a lot of guts to list your first post so please do not judge people just because they do not know how the boards work, I for one took a long time to get used to getting it right, after all we are all suposed to be helping not making poeple feel they are stupid just because they asked the same question:A

  • I read the posts and would like to share my own experience. I received a call today from Consumer Credit Services. There was a guy Gary Bush and he told me the same story about wiping out the loan. He has given me the address which is Consumer Credit Services, 15-16 Cowel Street, Llanelli, SA15 1UU. The registration number is same CRM20280. This time he gave me a new Customer Services number and that is 0844 384 3168. Then he asked me to pay 199.00. I said I did not have my credit card with me and he said he would call me tomorrow. When I checked all the posts, I came to know that these guys are in operation for a long time. I thank everybody who shared their experiences and posted comments.

    Another number to add to this thread for CCS is 02071486490, called me twice over past two days.
  • I have had calls from them. Glad I put the phone down quickly
  • I see this is an old thread but wanted to let you know I've been twice recommended to contact CCS within the last 10 days. One of them by a credit card company and the other within the last hour by a senior financial adviser from a call initiated from my enquiry on this site. I checked the link supplied in Oscar52's post & see that CCS has been suspended.

    Are you sure they don't mean CCCS? A completely different thing altogether, CCCS are a debt charity who will help you out for FREE :j
    Excuse any mis-spelt replies, there's probably a cat sat on the keyboard
