Hi,

I have asked for a CCA using the letter "I do not acknowledge ANY debt....." and inlcuded £1 Postal Order.

I have tried looking for previous posts for advice but cant seem to locate any.

They have written back to me asking me to supply as many previous addresses as I can. Do I have to do anything else? Or Can I just sit out the 12+2+30 days and send the second letter????? Does it look like they haven't got the CCA?

The company is Thames Credit (part of Aktiv Capital).

Many Many Thanks !!!!!

Pablo

    It's up to them to prove you owe the debt and not the other way around... don't give them anything until they've sent you the CCA. IF they don't supply it within 14 days then they can't do jack.

    Its their responsibility to prove you owe the money. Not yours!

    They can do nothing LAWFULLY in chasing the debt until they have sent you the CCA. This means they can still ask, but cannot take you to court.

    Do nothing and just send them the second letter when its time is due. At the end of the day, the actual CCA will have the "address" on it, and they can cross check this with your credit file and other stuff anyway. So let them do the legwork.

    Sorry - one more question. When does the clock start ticking for the 12+2 Days? Is it from when you sent the letter or from when they receive it?

    Seems strange that they managed to find your current address and link it with the 'alleged debt', yet are now asking YOU for information because they are unsure.

    They're a strange lot in Debt Collection. :confused:
