    Who do the bank contact regarding the DD's if they're in administration??
    Liquidators??

    The administrators will be contacted and almost certainly they will provide the bank with verification of the correct amounts. The bank will also be checking the direct debit mandate completed.

    Once this happens, typically about 60-90 days laters, the bank will take the money back from your account again. You will find yourself out of pocket by the amount you have paid the claims company.

    To be honest I thought it was dead money, so when they rang I thought fair enough if I can get something back I'd be happy.
    So what are you planning to do now? Refuse to pay the claim company? When the Bank claw back the money refunded you'll still have to pay the fee you agreed...

    Think I might contact the the bank and explain.
    Another thing, is it possible to buy information regarding people's direct debit info, amounts, dates etc. They had all this info on a spreadsheet??

    No. That data is not in the public domain

    Probably ex staff members that have lost their jobs and are selling details on. That is the most common way these things happen. However, its not possible to really know.

  • Hi,

    I was just wondering if this company has a website so that we can all watch out for it?
