statutory barred debt, in contact again

Hi guys, wonder if you can help me please.

10 years ago i took out a credit card with egg, owed them money, couldnt pay it all back moved address etc, then by the time they found me again (sure it was wescot) the debt became statutory barred, so i came on here and printed off a letter informing them of this, and then never heard no more.

Then a few years later another debt company contacted me regarding same debt, i sent letter off again with copies of other letters to prove.

Now i have recieved another letter from Aktiv Kapital who bought the debt off of egg and has requested me to contact them. What do i do? DO i call them and say it is statutory barred or write to them again using same letters i used twice before?

Really appreciate some help.

Thank you :)
