Philips Bailiffs/Lowell Financial??

petesellit

Today these idiots sent me an e-mail demanding money for a debt but the debt is not mine and refers to another name I have never heard of!!

They must be getting desperate to drum up cash?

Numbties :j

Hi everyone,

I thought I'd add my experience to this list as it could be helpful to others.

Today, 5th March - I've just had two letters from Philips demanding £300 and £317 - for supposed debts to North West London ? ( as the others above have )

Absolutely no idea what it refers to and had no previous communication about these alleged debts from anyone

Please keep posting your further experiences regarding this as I will too.

Very intimidating indeed!

If you've received a letter like this DONT PAY IT until we know what is going on.

it doesn't say North West London Magistrate court by any chance
there has been a lot of these letters sent out by Philip's in the last few week mostly north east/west London magistrate court for very old fines

have a read of the consumer action group web site

Hi,

it says North West London on it.

I've started a new thread over there as well.

We'll see what happens and I'll post back on Monday.

A few letters were sent to my address from Phillips chasing someone that used to live here for non-payment of Magistrates Fines - at first I returned them to sender but in the end got sick of it and opened one, I emailed Phillips to remove my address from their records - I got the 7 days automated response and have received nothing further from them since - two months maybe.

I have had the same letter last week and this week , they refer to South East London.
I also waited for ages on the 0844 number but stupidly texted my mobile
number to be called back.

will try sending a letter

As we see there's loads of stuff about Philips on the Martin Lewis money site.
They seem terribly dodgy. A good bit of advice it seems is to send
them a letter telling them to prove there's a debt and that if they
can't prove it, then you'll report them to the office of fair trading.
, call the office of fair trading anyway
