I dont have any outstanding debts, other than 1 that is being paid for through a debt company and my overdraft which is being paid off monthly. I just recieved an email from Buchanon clark and wells saying that i urgently need to contact them, so i was wondering what everyone else would do in this situation. Im living abroad now and do not want to incur high charges through debate on the the phone, so any advice would be great.
Thanks,
Reece

don't contact them, save yourself high phone charges. If your debt is already being serviced as you describe, then ignore them.0

Yes, ignore it. In fact, put their address into your spam filter so future emails are blocked as "junk".The best way to save money is not to spend it.:cheesy: "Smile first thing in the morning. Get it over with." W. C. Fields. :cheesy:0
