30/08/12 Received letter claiming to be from LTSB but does not give correct account number for the current account in dispute and is on poor quality LTSB headed paper, and sent from Huddersfield so is actually I think from Westcot on Lloyds headed paper!

"As we haven't been able to agree a suitable repayment plan we've transferred your Lloyds account to a debt collection agency. We have instructed Westcot Credit Services Ltd to arrange a collection of the outstanding amount........Please contact WCS as soon as possible....."

Should I send "account sold in dispute" to the LTSB address on the letter, even though this has obviously not come from them?
Or should I wait for something on WCS letter head?

Any advice is appreciated thanks to all.

They have just sent copy bank statements from 2008 up until 2010 when the account was closed, no mention of my request for copy of the agreement.
Also, these statements show charges for non payment of dds and standing orders and interest that I had not included in my original tally.
Total bank charges on this account from 2002 - 2010 for non payment of direct debits and standing orders are in excess of 4.5k with a further total of over 1k for interest charges.
As always, any advice is really appreciated

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

Hi

If the actual charges are more than the debt then why don't you consider a reclaim thus cancelling all charges.... we could then look to seek write off against the charges refund.

Or continue to ignore them till they get too stroppy.....

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

Hi Niddy
Thanks for the reply. could I still do this even though Fos rejected me when I went to them with the charges?

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

Hi Niddy
Thanks for the reply. could I still do this even though Fos rejected me when I went to them with the charges?

ermmm, possibly not then. Bugger - why did they reject it i.e. for what reason and when did you apply?

[bosdog]

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

Have sent a copy of the Fos ruling to Niddy for evaluation and comments. Not sure wether I need to continue with the cca requests on this od as I have sent part 1 and 2 and all they have sent is a few bank statements, or if I just wait for their next move.
Cheers to all

In the absence of any alternative dispute, we are unable to defer payment on this acc....payment props within 14 days or collections resume.."

26/07/12 letter from HF solcs "we note that despite previous correspondence you have no resolved this debt....we urge you to pay in full...or affordable payment plan....."

26/07/12 Sent part 2 of OD letter again with copy of part 1 (cc Rob Way) to HF solcs
and Sent part 2 of OD letter again with copy of part 1 (cc HF solcs) to Rob Way

03/08/12 Received from HF solcs dated (presume incorrectly 1st July 2012!)
We refer to recent correspondence received 30th July....
Please be advised your CCA request is irrelevant under part V of the CCA 1974 as no agreement was signed when opening your bank acc.
This has been previously advised, we will not continue with repetitive correspondence.
You account has been delayed for 10 days while we await you proposals

16/08/12 Sent Niddy/Elsa Special letter to HF Solcs

30/08/12 Received letter claiming to be from LTSB but does not give correct account number for the current account in dispute and is on poor quality LTSB headed paper, and sent from Huddersfield so is actually I think from Westcot on Lloyds headed paper!

"As we haven't been able to agree a suitable repayment plan we've transferred your Lloyds account to a debt collection agency. We have instructed Westcot Credit Services Ltd to arrange a collection of the outstanding amount........Please contact WCS as soon as possible....."

Should I send "account sold in dispute" to the LTSB address on the letter, even though this has obviously not come from them?
Or should I wait for something on WCS letter head?

Any advice is appreciated thanks to all.

03/09/12 Received From Wescot in red with the heading "important notice of debt collection" it reads "we have been instructed by our client to collect the above....to prevent further action you must..." etc
Ignore or send in dispute?
Cheers all

06/09/12 Sent letter to Wescot stating acc in dispute with HF and Lloyds with a copy of the HF letter included

11/09/12 Letter from Westcot investigating and collections suspended meanwhile

13/09/12 letter from Westcot "having contacted our client they have advised as this is a current acc they are unable to provide a copy of the agreement"...... *please contact us"

FYI The above letter was dated by WC 12/09/12 (received 13th)

18/09/12 received letter from WC dated 14/09/12 "thank you for your recent contact....we acknowledge you have raised a query....we will suspend all activity whilst the matter is under investigation.

13/10/12 From westcot "we refer to your recent communication please find enclosed copy statement...payment is now required..call us"
They have just sent copy bank statements from 2008 up until 2010 when the account was closed, no mention of my request for copy of the agreement.
Also, these statements show charges for non payment of dds and standing orders and interest that I had not included in my original tally.
Total bank charges on this account from 2002 - 2010 for non payment of direct debits and standing orders are in excess of 4.5k with a further total of over 1k for interest charges.
As always, any advice is really appreciated

19/03/13 Received from Wescot "FINAL NOTICE" Our latest enquiries have now confirmed that you are still a resident at the address but we have not received a reply to our previous correspondence. Unless you contact us to agree repayment of £xxx.xx within the next 10 days, further collection activity will be taken to recover the full outstanding balance. Please do not ignore this letter......."

Any advice please? Thanks in advance

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

I would wait to see what they send next.

I assume that you have sent both overdraft letters.

Re: Bosdog and Lloyds TSB

Hi Vint

Thank you very much for your advice.

On 06/12/12 I had sent Westcot the "account in dispute" letter with a copy of the part 2 o/d letter that had been sent to HF Solcs and Rob Way in July (who had also been chasing this account.)

I have not sent the o/d letter part 1 or 2 directly to Westcot and did not respond to their letter received on the 13/10/12, should I have done?

Hope this makes sense?

All the best

Wescot had a Natwest overdraft and I sent them that letter and it did fend them off and I got a letter from them confirming that they sent it back to Natwest. I've a thread on a natwest/triton overdraft (merges into one about wescot).
