Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

It then carries on with the usual rubbish about it simply being another option available to assist me,
Any suggestions?

Replace assist wih hassle and I think they are are about correct. They just need a better choice of words there.

Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

Cheers all. They haven't replied to my threat o gram before action letter yet so I will wait to see what that says. Going back to the start of this story I never sent a missing prescribed terms letter to Barclaycard nor did I send the account sold in dispute letter to Credit Solutions. The threat o gram before action does tell them the account is in dispute though. Is not sending these going to be detrimental to me long term and if so can I correct it now?
Thanks

So today I get 2 letters regarding my Barclays overdraft.
The 1st from Barclays CDCS which is identical (other than the dates on it) to the letter sent by them in June about being in receipt of an offer from an appointed representative (whoever they may be!) So shall ignore this one again.
The 2nd one comes from Lewis Group telling me they are dissapointed I haven't made arrangements to pay and they now intend to transfer the account to their field agents and arrange for a collector to visit to discuss how the debt can be paid. Will respond to this one with the doorstep visit template unless anyone thinks otherwise?
Cheers all

Letter recieved today from Lewis group. We refer to your recent correspondence in which you made a request for info under section 77-78 of the CCA1974. Please be advised we are not the creditor in this matter and we are merely instructed to act on their behalf to recover any outstanding balance. The statutory obligation to provide this remains with Barclays and we suggest you submit your request to them directly.

So I prevously get a letter from Lewis Group Collection Department telling me they have contacted the original creditor and then a few days later get this letter off Lewis Group Compliance Department informing me it's my responsability to do it! Going back to November Barclays told me they will no longer accept any communication from me so dont think I'll be writing to them!
Shall await the next installment from Lewis Group!

They are misleading you and being deceitful.

You need to send them this -

Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

Cheers SH

I wonder wether their initial letter telling me they have reffered it is their reply to my original Overdraft CCA request and this then crossed with my one liner referring them to my unanswered CCA and they are fobbing me off with the second one not realising the original request has been referred? The reason I'm thinking this is because the barrage of daily phone calls and text messages stopped on the same date the letter stating the referral was dated?

Thanks

Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

In my limited experience Lewis do stop when you ask them too so you could be right.

However also in my limited experience they have gone from my most chatty DCA pre CCA request to deathly silent DCA post my CCA requests.

Wonder why?

Oh yes its because they will find the OC only has an application for a storecard for an account that morphed into a credit card without a new agreement being signed. Oh dear !!!!!!!

March 2012 - Stopped paying DMP
March 2012- Missing prescribed terms letter sent
May 2012 - Letter recieved from Santander head of collections stating concerns about payments not been recieved for some time. If I dont contact them within 7 days they will asume account is no longer being managed by a third party and furher action taken to recover outstanding amount........IGNORED
Oct 2012 - 6 monthly statement recieved from Santander. No charges or interest added to account and no payments made

After a period of calm and reaching page 6 of the UE diaries today I recieve a letter from Moorcroft Debt Recovery Limited. They tell me that they have been instructed by Santander to collect my overdue debt. It then goes on to state 'to prevent our recommending to our client that further debt recovery action be undertaken it is essential that you settle this debt without delay' They give me 7 days to make payment or give me the option to contact them immediately with my payment offer. It then says 'both our client and we do not wish to take this action but if agreement cannot be reached we may have no alternative'. They also inform me that Santander have registerred a default against my credit file in relation to this account (i know that was nearly 6 years ago!). Finally in bold type they tell me they are happy to discuss a repayment program.

As Santander have never replied to my missing prescribed terms letter sent in March last year I think I'll send Moorcroft an account sold in dispute unless anybody thinks otherwise.

Cheers all

Mar 2012 - Stopped Paying DMP
Mar 2012 - Letter from Apex acknowledging me making regular payments and offering a reduced settlement with a discount of up to 50% off the remaining balance. Still no CCA...............Ignored
May 2012 - Letter from Apex telling me paymant plan in arrears and is now in a state of default. Payment of arrears required within 72 hours. Still no CCA.............Ignored
May 2012 - Letter from Apex telling me account still in arrears. Contact them to discuss to avoid escalation of account. Still no CCA..............Ignored
May 2012 - Letter from Apex confirming "at present we are unable to obtain suitable copies of the required documentation from the original creditor in order to comply with your request" and "in light of this we will be removing your account from our normal collection activity." They go on to state "Although at this time your account is UE, we must advise you that the debt still remains, the balance is due and suitable collection activity may continue despite the unenforceability. We recommend payments are made to reduce outstanding liability and advise that at any time we may produce a recon copy of your agreement which would restore the enforceability." They have also sent me a cheque for £1.00 refunding the fee paid for this service........FILED

Well nice of Apex to leave me alone since may but have now recieved a phone call from them asking me to 'ring them and discuss this matter'. Being as it's an Egg product I wonder whether a recon is on its way? Hope not

Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

This is what has just happened to us.

However there is something not quite right with it.

But that not quite right has only come about because we have a SAR. Without that it would have been deemed and still could be EN.

Seems a few Apex egg CCA's have been found this year.

Fingers crossed yours is still firmly behind the filing cabinet.

Re: DaveyBoys UE enquiry

Cheers Ken. I'll await developments and hope it's just apex chancing their arm.
