We had a phone call from cancel credit claiming they could write off a loan and credit card (which we have had for a while) as the paper work would probably not have been signed correctly. They would need £795 plus vat up front for each but if we put it on our credit card they would wipe that off to. They stated if they couldn't clear the debts they would refund us. It does sound too good to be true, but I wondered if anyone else had had any dealings with this company.

    They are shysters, don't know this company but you can get the same advice for free on here or through proper charities.

    For the LOVE OF GOD, do not give these people money or details of your back account, if you do, expect to be a very poor person soon.

    In summary, I would rather pluck my own eyes out than give these chancers a brass farthing.

    No wonder these companies continue to trade.

    Seriously, did you actually NEED to ask that question??

    Could the scam be any more obvious?

    ask them to write it all off, then you will pay them afterwards

    they'll definitely go for it
  • I'll do what jon boy suggested then. Tell them I will pay them when they have cleared my loan and credit card off. I'll time them to see how long it takes them to put the phone down, shall I guess at about 5 seconds!

    Strange they don't mention anything about cash up front on their website

    If that doesn't work out let me know and I can put you in touch with an exiled Nigerian Prince who has spare money he needs help to get rid of.

    :D
