Credit Security Limited ? Lloyds?

Can anyone help me? I received a letter from Credit Security Limited on 01 Nov 10. I wrote back the "I do not acknowledge any debt.... request copy of my credit agreement ..... should be supplied within 12 working days" letter on 4th November enclosing a £1 postal order. On 15th November received letter from CSL saying they will pend recovery action and that the Credit Agreement will be forwarded from their client. Around a week later I received a compliments slip on "Lloyds Banking Group" header with a handwritten note saying 'Unable to locate Account NUmber quoted therefore Postal Order returned, with said Postal Order attached. THEN on 31 March 2011 (obviously a LOT more than 12 working days since my letter) I received a copy of the Credit Agreement from the original company and a statement showing that on 20 Feb 11 I have made a payment of £1. Now, the £1 Postal Order for the cost of the copy of the Credit Agreement is in my file as it had been returned to me, so I have not made any payment at all to them. Today received a letter dated 11 April from CSL telling me that they 'cannot allow any further delays in the settlement of the debit and require a payment and a repayment proposal within the next 7 days (in caps and bold) to avoid further action.
What do I do now? As they didn't supply the copy of the Credit Agreement within 12 days of my request have they complied with the CCA?
Any help would be gratefully received.

  • Yes they have, all a CCA request does is stop them from enforcing a debt at court, until such time one can be produced, and now even a copy or consituated one complies with the act, as the recent high court cases have showed, I think the CCA request route is dying a death now.
  • But what about the fact that they sent back my PO, saying that they couldn't find a record of this account but then a magical payment of £1 has appeared on my account - that obviously didn't come from me?

    So when are you saying you last paid, the only point this matters is if you say it was more than six years ago ?
