McKenzie Hall

Hi All..new to this but wonder if you can help. I received two letters today from McKenzie Hall addressed to myself at my work address. I only got these as it is myself who deals/distributes the mail in the office. Can they do this ?

Thanks.

    Probably not - assuming you have never given them that address for correspondance - do the letters include details of your debts? or are they 'trying to trace' letters?

    This would be against the OFT debt collection guidance - clauses 3.7 p and q probably. UPDATED OFT Guidance on Debt Collection - READ IF YOU ARE BEING HASSLED UNFAIRLY

  • Thank you Tixy, i think they are tryiing to trace letters asking if it is me to call them otherwise if i am not then asking my Company to call them. I really dont want them contacting or sending letters to my work and no i haven't given them this address for contact. No details of the debt etc. I will have a look at the links you have given. thanks again.

    Have you not received letters at your home address (i.e do they even know where you live?)
  • I have received letters at home which is why i cant understand getting them at work. I dont want to do anything about it as it was something in my name but taken out by an ex partner so i am just ignoring them.

    who signed the contract for this credit ?
    If it was you, it is YOUR debt.
