Should i just keep sending them the amount thats on the financial statment? and how do i stop them harrassing me im at my witts end.

Refer them back to the CAB, you can only afford to pay what you can pay. I would also mention that all other creditors are accepting your offer and it would be unfair to offer them more as it is not in the interest of the other creditors.
There are also a number of other things you can do. I would request on the phone followed up in writing, that they take your phone no off their list and contact you only in writing only through the CAB.
And welcome to the DFW board..don't worry you are not on your own. Bob xxBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Hi
Welcome to the forum.
Couple of things, request your CCA fro Lloyds TSB, this will comfirm the debt is enforcable, send this letter, including a £1.00 postal order:
Your Address
Date
DCA / Creditor
Address
Dear Sir/Madam
Re:− Account/Reference Number: XXXXXXXXX
With reference to the above agreement, we would be grateful if you would send us a copy of this credit agreement.
We understand that under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 (Sections 77−79), we are entitled to receive a copy of our credit agreement on request.
We enclose a payment of £1.00 which represents the fee payable under the Consumer Credit Act.
We understand a copy of our credit agreement should be supplied within 12 working days.
We understand that under the Consumer Credit Act creditors are unable to enforce an agreement if they fail to comply with a request for a copy of the agreement under these sections of the Act.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully
Next, send them this letter:
Your address
Company Name
Dear Sirs
Harassment by telephone
Account Number: XXXXXXX
I am writing in relation to the quantity and frequency of telephone calls that I have received from your company, which I deem to be personally harassing.
I have verbally requested that these stop, but I am still receiving calls. (Delete if necessary)
I now require all further correspondence from your company to be made in writing only.
I am of the view that your continued harassment of me by telephone puts you in breach of Section 40 of the Administration of Justice Act 1970, and the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.
If you continue to harass me by telephone, you will also be in breach of the Communications Act (2003) s.127 and I will report you to OFCOM, Trading Standards and The Office of Fair Trading, meaning that you will be liable to a substantial fine.
Be advised that any further telephone calls from your company will be recorded. (**Even if you don‘t yet have recording equipment!!**)
I request confirmation that my telephone details have beem removed from your databases.
Yours faithfully,
[YOUR NAME HERE]
SEND BOTH LETTERS BY RECORDED DELIVERY, come back and post once you have an update
