Credit File Advice

Hi All, i'm now looking to clean up my credit file but, i need some advice.

I had some debt with Barclaycard and this was transferred to Pco Holdco S.a.r.l, I also had debt with MBNA (Virgin Money) this looks like it was transferred to Pra Group (Uk) Limited.

Now my question is who do i send the letters to, i have the account numbers to the CC with the original companies, but don't know any of the details for the companies they were transferred to?

Kind Regards

Ezzuk

    sounds like the debts were bought by PCO and PRA. i have just been and done all this and i just called the companies who bought the debt and settled it with them. I dont partial settlements and managed to clear everything off. I would work out what you owe each of them and pay off in full if possible. If not agree settlement figures with each of them thats affordable for you.

    You write to whatever companies have incorrect entries on your credit reports in their name.

    Links for address if they are in the buyers name.
