DRO and debt collection agencies

tjretro

In January of 2013 I got advice from the CAB and they helped me get a DRO, all the companies were contacted in the process. My DRO was active from Jan 13 to Jan 14. In that time it appears that one of my debts was sold on to 2 separate debt collection agencies, both of them asking for different amounts for the same debt. My DRO was discharged in Jan 14, and I'm still getting contacts from both debt collection agencies. I keep telling them that the debt was covered by the DRO and they shouldn't be calling me but they still keep calling. They call me daily and I find it very stressful, I'm on the autistic spectrum so find the phone very stressful. What do I do about them contacting me every day? I've given them the DRO reference number and all the information I have. The original debt was with studio catalogue.

Thank you so much! I will complain. It has all been rather overwhelming.

Does your phone allow you to block numbers? Mine lets me 'add to reject list' any from debt collectors or PPI chasers etc.

I return all debt collector letters to sender with my DRO number written on them which I find rather satisfying. One of mine has recently been sold for a third time, the DRO ends in ten weeks.
