  • Letter from Mortimer Clarke

    Received a letter from MC on 15/04 . They give their client as Cabot. They ask to speak to me about a debt of £826.00. If I do not speak to them Cabot may ask them to issue court proceedings. What do I do now? I have not spoken to them or Cabot. Please can you advise. The original creditor was HSBC. Any help would be appreciated. They have started calling my work phone leaving messages as well.

    Hi

    I would not speak to them until you have given much more detail about the history of this account, when payments were last made, what correspondence has been taking place between you and the creditor.

    Have a look at the Unenforceable Diaries section to see the usual format for setting out history details. It is impossible to give advice due to the lack of information here. One thing, the usual advice on this site is to only communicate with creditors/representatives in writing, so that you always have a record.

    Also, I note that the letter is dated more than 2 weeks ago - did they give a deadline for response?

        Then I think you should set about providing more detail asap, to give time to get some advice from the forum.

          Mortimer Clarke are also part of CABOT
          As Still Waving points out to advise the MODs need more information.

          BUT I am sure that CABOT is NOT the name in that Letter rather its a abbreviation. Mortimer Clarke MUST be instructed by the Current Owner and this is the name that I ask you to check for in that letter and post on here!

          In the meantime you have some details sic the amount and the Original Creditor. So you can start to create a Diary entry here! Such as the type of Debt for instance,
