How to pay £0.02???
Comments

Wait till you are back at work and send a cheque or if you really want your finances settled early...pop into your workplace and access your chequebook....why give yourself unneccessary grief....or is that what you want?
No, not at all! What I DONT want to happen is that they return the 2p coin, or send me letters etc chasing this when I wont receive them. My workplace is about 200 miles away from where 'home' is - and I work away from home for long periods of time.
The issue is sorted now though
Thanks for all the replies however! I really LOVE the idea of sending a scrawled and incomprehensible letter with my very special 2p friend attached. If anyone does ever do that and post it on here, ill 'thanks' every post they ever made on this site!#KiamaHouse0 -

According to their website you can pay at a local Paypoint shop if you have a barcoded letter. That will deffo cost them more in fees. "If you require a barcoded letter please telephone one of our recovery agents on 0844 824 1155."
saynoto0770 suggests 01482 483250, 590500, 590590 or 0800 0920035 as alternatives.
This is the one which will cost them most to process (only if you use the 01482 numbers!!):cool:LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Personally I'd make them doorstep me for the 2p, then make the collections agent wait whilst I went inside to get it and return 8 minutes later with a 5p and ask for change.

It will cost them more if you can use 0800 as they pay to receive the call. How long can you keep them talking for?A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0 -
