Hello,
About 5 and a half years ago I had 4 credit cards MBMA £2400, Barclaycard£750, Capital One £1000, GE Capital £1200. The payments for these began to get out of control and to be honest got me very down and in the end I ended up running away from the debts and moved away.
I have heard nothing from any of the cards until yesterday when I received a letter from Hamptons legal representing Lowell Portfolio over the debt owed to capital One. They are demanding payment £409.90 or legal proceedings will be commenced and bailiffs etc. I have no idea how they have tracked me down as I am not on any electoral roll and I am currently living with my mum, who is absolutely going mad about the threats contained in the letter.
Does anybody know what I can do?
