They will legitimately take your money in return for posting your complaint.
If you have access to a Post Office, or even a computer, you can send it off yourself and keep all the cash.0 -
Follow the MSE guide and do it yourself for free and keep 100% of any refund rather than paying 20% of it for a company to put a stamp on an envelope
Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Ok i had this company phone my mobile back last year a nd just thought nothing to lose id I did not have ppi so told them to ahead.
I know i electronicly sighned a form givig them permission to look into it (vis my mobile).
I have had a text then asking me to sign a letter of authority to go ahead and claim the ppi back, I have however never signed it.
The bank phoned me via my mobile and checked a few details and said they would be in touch in a few weeks. Well had a cheque land on my mat this week and then a letter off my bank explaing the payout.
I have had a text from HTC stating the bank were going to put the refund in my account but nothing since. Do I legally need to pay the (HYC) if I have not signed then letter of authority to actually go ahead and claim?0 -
If they placed the complaint for you, the bank accepted they had the authority to do so, so expect a bill

If the Claim Company are already aware that you have received a refund, that means the Bank have accepted your electronic Authority and that you can expect a legally enforceable bill in the near future.I know i electronicly sighned a form givig them permission to look into it (vis my mobile).

Sorry, but the correct procedure should have been to cancel the Claim Company's services. You didn't and will therefore pay.
Hopefully the actual OP of this thread didn't do similar..0
