Hi Snudgerchops,
Re your Doorstep letter for Scotland, I've edited the standard template and Niddy's OK'd it, so here you go:
Dear Sirs
Account No/Reference No: XXXXXXXX
Please be advised that I will only communicate with you in writing. I have noted your repeated attempts to contact me over the past few weeks and these have been duly logged by time and date. Should it be your intention to arrange a doorstep visit, please be advised that under OFT rules, you can only visit me at my home if you make an appointment and I have no wish to make such an appointment with you.
Any attempt to visit will be pointless, as no discussion will take place and you will merely be asked to leave, which under Common Law you must do immediately upon request.
For your reference I also draw your attention to the Land Reform (Scotland) Act, 2003, specifically chapter section 6 (1)(b)(iv) which States:-
6 Land over which access rights not exercisable
(1) The land in respect of which access rights are not exercisable is land—
(which)
(iv) comprises, in relation to a house or any of the places mentioned in paragraph (a)(ii) above, sufficient adjacent land to enable persons living there to have reasonable measures of privacy in that house or place and to ensure that their enjoyment of that house or place is not unreasonably disturbed;
I trust I make my position clear and that you will communicate in writing only as per my reasonable request.
Yours faithfully,
