Limitations Letter

Posts: 2 Newbie
Hi I am being contacted by an old debt which i believe to be statute barred. I have sent the limitations letter and requested evidence of contact and or payment in the past 6 years: The Solicitors acting for the creditors have advised payment has been paid in the last 4 years yet have failed to provide the evidence to support this. My initial letter was sent 28th April 14 and i have received a second letter from them demanding proof of earnings and out goings with which to ascertain a payment programme. Being as they have not supplied me with the evidence requested, how much time am i obliged to give them to provide the evidence? Do i acknowledge their second letter? Thanks for any advise you can offer. Claire

I would refer them to your earlier request specifying, valid documentary evidence of payment in the last 4 years and make it clear that you will be unable to enter into further dialogue with them until you have received such. Reassert that you believe the matter to be statute barred. You may also want to request (under the data protection act) all your file notes relating to the the matter.0
