Vodafone and Bryan Carter Solicitors

Hi sorry this is an old one. A two years ago while i was in my second year of uni i had a phone on contract with vodafone. Around the summer time the phone was cut off for two months for no reason. I hadn't missed any payments or anything. Then when they put the phone back on they charged me double for those two months saying i had gone over my limit in that time. After trying to sort it out i paid and then did not renew the contract as it had almost ended. Now i have received a letter dated 27th of March 2014 from Bryan Carter Solicitors claiming that they have been trying to contact me and i owe then £164.79. This is the first i have heard of this. The contract came out of my mothers account and was in my name but was paid off in full at the time. My mother is disabled and i can't afford this. They said they would put the account on hold for 14 days while i gather evidence to prove that i paid this but this happened two years ago and neither me nor my mother can find anything. I don't live with her any more. I can't afford a CCJ as i am getting married and want to be able to start a life, plus this is completely wrong that they are harrassing me for money. Could anyone offer any advice on what to do next please. I would greatly appreciate this. Thank you in advance.
