Help please

I have problems with Welcome Finance going to reclaim PPI etc
I must state i am in default and not paid the whole loan off as they refused to cancel the PPI when I told them 4 yrs ago so I stopped paying, but I'm going to do it properly this time.


They have sent me a couple of letters demanding money that I'm not too concerned with at the moment, HOWEVER
the account number is a problem

The account number they have quoted in several letters since 2005/6 ends in 771

My account number quoted on the actual paperwork I signed for the loan ends in 711

Thankfully I kept the original paperwork


What do I do?

Can they chase me for money for an account that is nothing to do with me? or what exactly should I do?

I have worked out that once I get the PPI refunded and the interest on it then they will end up owing me money.


If it matters the reason I wrote to them to cancel and refund the PPI in 2006 which they refused to do was I already claimed on a previous PPI I had with them in 2004 and noticed it stated in the policy booklet that I I did claim again it they wouldn't pay out so it was useless to me.


Anyway I'm digressing - What do I do about the wrong account number?

I thought at first it was a typo the 771 and 711 but its on ever letter/statement they have ever sent me
