    I've tried to do a photobucket upload but it doesn't seem to have worked, is there a way to upload a photo directly from the laptop hard drive?

    I just wrote a rude reply for that rubbish, posting as SRM in this thread (post # 9):

    You can see from that thread what a joke this firm are, and that NTO certainly is not compliant nor even allowed under the BPA Code of Practice.

    But as you've already gone past 28 days from when you got it, I do hope you have already sent your first challenge?

  • Hi, yes I sent the first challenge off within the deadline, using the template letter and adapting it to reflect the fact that they sent the NTO (which should be a NTK) after 106 days instead of within 56.

    I got a proof of postage which I've kept should I need it, and I recieved a letter on Friday which doesn't acknowledge my letter at all. This second letter states that I've made "no effort" to pay, that they'll let me off with £80 instead of £100 if I pay within 10 days :rotfl: otherwise they'll be sending door to door debt collectors round!

    I'll upload a copy of that letter now.

    'Approved for Court Action' - squiggle. :rotfl: :rotfl:

    You should complain to the BPA by email and show them all the letters (being careful not to talk about who was driving). There are soooo many lies and misleading words in the NTO (Charge Certificate!!) and now you have the lie that they 'WILL sell the debt' when we know that a PPC cannot sell a debt (there is no credit agreement and no scope/small print allowing an AOS member to sell a charge on to a firm outside of the BPA Code of Practice). They can get a debt collector to write but they can't sell the 'debt'.
