    @Grizebeck will tell you that you can in fact ignore that CIS letter.  ALL CIS LETTERS.

    Why not just search for other threads about the same firms? It's been said on every CIS thread that they are to be ignored.

    I have been in Ignoring a number of letter from Debt collectors for a few months now (been over a year) and then got a letter from Gladstone which I sent an email using the template (saying I’m going to defend this and got the following reply 

    As this appears to be a template response commonly available online, we do not intend to engage substantively with its contents, particularly as it is unlikely you fully understand the implications of the statements made.

     

    However, we note your assertion that you will "vigorously"defend any court proceedings. In light of this, we have today arranged for legal proceedings to be issued to recover the debt in full.

     

    Upon receipt of the claim form, we recommend that you follow the instructions provided within it carefully. At this stage, if you are uncertain about any aspect of the process, we strongly advise that you seek independent legal advice.


     

    Do you think they will look at taking this to court or just another scare tactic 

    Im not going to give in and happy to defend myself if needed
