default that no one can talk about pt2

Quick background on my problem if you have not seen it

I have been given a default from the lowell group for a account I have no idea what it for

Emailed lowell they said they cant speak to me, its with morcroft

emailed morecroft, sorry not with us its with lowell.

emailed equifax (advised of here) who contacted lowell......the end



right so I get a email of equifax saying that lowell have come back to them saying the default is correct and wont discuse it with them any further.

so I have contacted lowell and guess what, sorry that account is no longer with us as we have told you its with morecroft. I have explained that morcroft have said its with them and im going round and round getting no where fast and have a default I cant talk to anyone about
Any ideas?????

    Give the FOS a call. They will log a complaint on your behalf. They may take notice of that...

    Play dumb. Tell Lowell that as the debt is no longer with them, they must remove the default from your credit report to enable Moorcroft to place one.

    Would be great for you if Lowell remove theirs but Moorcroft don't place one.
    What will your verse be?
