    Excel? "them" isnt helpful, as we have to guess.

    To whom?  Why are you phoning?  You need a paper trail.  

    You appear to be making heavy weather of this imo.  
    You never know how far you can go until you go too far.

    Yep. 
    Send cleared funds, copy of order, and state this is full and final resolution of the court order....
    You require they notify the court befroe... that payment of the Order was made in full
    If they fail to do so, you have already lodged a copy of this with the Court, and will hold Excel liable for any damage to credit rating. This is estimated in the tune of £5000 as you wil need a new mortgage / whatever in the next few years.

    just spoke to CCBC and their advise is to submit an N244 to have it set aside as Excel are refusing to accept payment. I'll give national debtline a call now to see what their advice is first, and then call Excel once more and escalate to a manager immediately

    Then use email.  CC staff are not la creme de la creme, I could tell you horrific stories about their incompetence.

    A set aside seems unlikely. Under what grounds would you give to set aside the judgement?

    ELMS are refusing to take payment for anything less than £245, I have already tried that.
    I could send them a postal order, recorded/signed for delivery. That still leaves me in the position of proving that there was actually postal order in the signed for mail though
    Do not send anything recorded or signed for as, if they refuse delivery they then have absolute proof it wasn't delivered.  Just use First Class from a post office with a FREE certificate of posting, this is then deemed delivered two days later.  You could get a bankers draft or a cheque from your bank drawn on your account.
