Paying DCA's with a bank transfer

Posts: 18 Forumite
I have a debt with MMF that I am looking to pay £50 a month.
They have told me that they want more, but if I make a £50 payment then we can talk more.
If I transfer £50 to their account from a friends (I don't have an acc at the moment) they can't set up a recurring payment from that.
In the past I have been scuppered by giving other DCA's my card details and them emptying my account and as it isn't my account, I don't want this to happen again....

as long as its standing order they can't do anything about it, just keep on paying the 50 a month, tell them its all you can afford, they will most likely threaten you with court but its just them trying to bully you into paying more so don't worry about itA man's own hand is most to be trusted0

£50 per month is pretty generous, let them bluster but I think they'll be pleased to get so much. If they keep hassling, say you've done a re-calculation of your expenditure and you will have to pay much less. They will long for the days of a £50 offer!0
