in Reclaim PPI & other insurance
Hi,

I got a phone call from ACE Claims management saying I was owed some money! They even went into great detail of how much. I being careful not to give away any bank information listen.

They have sent me a form to complete, this is the authority to act on my behalf.

If there any way of contacting the lender directly to double check this information?

Or is it just the case this company are fishing just to rob me of all my debt... sorry I mean riches :)

    Don't touch them with a bargepole. You're owed nothing.

    If you have a mis selling complaint, make it yourself.

    Yup do it yourself. If you fill in those forms they take a large % of anything you get and sometimes you'll still owe them a fee if you are not given anything back.

    I used resolver, only because they mail it to the right dept at each company https://www.resolver.co.uk/

    Yes but unless you've had an account with them, surely you'd know! Then they'll just reply saying no.

    Maybe, but they will still find me if there is an account. Having an account number or not is totally important.

    And as I am pretty crap with money it is possible i had something with them... but you are right I would normally remember :)

    No just give them your name dob and addresses over the years and they'll find you.

    I didn't have account numbers on long since closed accounts and they found me.

    There is no guarantee of that. If they still have records yes, if the records were deleted due to account age then they won't

    Dear Wood2e3,
    And anyone else who this may concern,

    I am the Managing Director of Ace Claims Managament.
    Unfortunately we have recently been a victim of cyber fraud.
    We have reported this to the Fraud Team and they are investigating these scammers who are fraudulently using our company name and details.

    For future reference, we would NEVER cold call our clients asking for payments.
    If you ever receive calls claiming to from ace claims management, please report to the police immediately.

    While this is helpful, it is against MSE policy for companies to post on here without MSE permission (and presumably some proof that you are who you say you are and have the authority to make such claims)
