Well all they'll see on my CRA file is 18 Defaults on over £100k debt and not a penny paid to anyone since 2009. I hope they'll sum me up as a 'no-hoper'

Re: PriorityOne & CPUTR 2008
If you don't provide a previous address to a credit ref. agency, then it/they won't link you up.... hence all the phishing expeditions from DCAs who often contact people in the hope they'll confirm this for them.Originally posted by Fine Vintage View PostI'm sure that is the case. They must get a flag when your credit file is accessed.
If you link yourself up to a previous address however; either by requesting your credit file or, by applying for credit somewhere, then they've got you.

I never knew thatOriginally posted by PriorityOne View PostYou don't need to check your credit file and if you're in as much of a mess as I was in some years ago, it could be the absolute WORST move to make. I was shot down in flames for saying that the CRAs are linked to debt collection outfits, despite having personal experience of being traced that way.... and, stumbling across info. that implied that Westcot were owned by Equifax (I think

The only way around it is NOT to check your credit file and if applying for credit, NOT to link yourself up to the previous address you were at....

Re: PriorityOne & CPUTR 2008
You know, when I first started this, I was mainly fighting my PDL's and I got suckered into believing what they told me, eg Loan+1months interest, change bank account etc etc and I sadly perpetuated the myths. Then I went onto the green looking at B/R advice and a very nice very large lady
plucked me from there to here. As I was silly enough to use the same name on all 3 sites , well Jon is my name I was soon banned from Cag and again and again etc etc. About 30secs is my record.
In a purely selfish way I hope this site doesn't get too big as Niddy would never be able to cope but there are a lot of us that need help.
Oh and the other thing I love about this site is that people cope with me when I get carried away or go down the wrong track.Last edited by jon1965; 20 May 2012, 18:59.

You know that if you have been defaulted, you have listings there.
There are still a few over there trying to help with advice and legal stuff, but the Lets take hem on attiude seems to have deserted most, with the exception of a few.

Re: CPUTR 2008 Thread
But you still need the bodies if you are going to attract advertisers.Originally posted by PriorityOne View PostThe fight started going some time ago. I'm not sure whether it coincided with all those ads on there or not but it seems to provide a politically correct kind of information these days.... no more than that.
The future is indeed orange....

Most of the old faces seem to have moved over here.

I know all about rogue posters
although last week I finally admitted defeat and gave in as I had no more IP addresses I could use. They are welcome to themselves.
Seems that debt is run by Mr check your CRA and the wannabe general and PDL's by a very silly (not been a girl for a very long time ) and a renegade who wouldn't know the law and common sense if it came and punched him in the face which is what I frequently wanted to do
. Alas I was outnumbered and out gunned but went down with a fight. Doubt I will ever venture back there as it raises my blood pressure

There seems to be no fight left, although there are 2 or 3 still battling on.
Not sure what has frightened them, or who.

Re: PriorityOne & CPUTR 2008
It seems it was removed but has been put back up today as someone was questioning where it had gone.
There is a post on there directing the OP here.
