Hello all
I have been going through some financial difficulty and I am now in process of having lawrence charlton act on my behalf who have been brilliant might I add.
My main concern is from speed credit who have now passed my debt onto northern debt recovery - greg campbell.
I have received a email from them today advising that as I defaulted on my repayment plan they will be sending round recovery agents to obtain payments aka bailiffs? I thought they couldnt do this unless they had obtained a CCJ or something?
They cannot force their way in can they?
Can they enter if a door is unlocked if they are not proper bailiffs?
Nervous as I live alone and wouldn't know what to do if they come knocking? They also state they will take 9 times the value of the outstanding? I have nothing of value and I am worrying they will take anything and everything?
Sorry if there is already a thread based on these guys I cannot locate it?
Thank you x

No they can't use bailiffs without a CCJ that you have defaulted payments on.
They are full off hot air and daft threats.

Speed credit (aka MCO Capital ltd) had their consumer credit licence revoked in August - http://www.oft.gov.uk/news-and-updates/press/2012/69-12
Not sure what impact that has in terms of repaying the debt...?
But, it might be worth chucking it at Marshall Hoares!0 -
Independant - however brilliant Lawrence Charlton may have been, they have taken the first two payments of your DMP which means your creditors have not seen a penny. They will now take 17.5% of everything you give them from now on.
Please contact StepChange, Payplan or CAP and get a free DMP asap.LBM:1/1/12Debts @ LBM:£43,546 :eek: Debts now: £9,486 :cool: 78% PAIDFound YNAB 1/2/14 - the best thing EVER!0
