            Through the litigation process we will seek to obtain a County Court Judgement directing you to pay the monies outstanding. If we are successful and no payments are made towards your account, it maybe necessary to enforce the judgement through the courts by either a Warrant of Execution which will result in a bailiff visiting your address; by applying to the court for an attachment of earnings order which my result in deductions from you earnings by your employer or by seeking a charging order over you property to secure the judgement.

            All of this action is avoidable . It is therefore in your interest to prevent the above course of action by contacting this office immediately to discuss settlement or a proposed arrangement to settle this debt.Our experienced pre-litigation team are on hand to assist you but this can only happen if you make contact before 16 Oct 13. Failure to respond by the date outlined may result in legal action being instigated.
            update ignore ?[/QUOTE]

            It looks like they are trying to frighten you by listing scenarios which are several steps ahead, even if they did take legal action, and so far they are only saying MAY pass to solicitors who MAY instigate legal action. I can't see from your history that you have sent capquest a SWID letter. If not, then I would think that is the first response to get off to them.

                We cannot locate a copy of the signed agreement at this time.

                In light of your comments we can confirm that all collections activity will now cease. If , which is not admitted, the agreement is unenforceable under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 due to your allegation that you failed to sign it, the consequences are that the creditor maybe prevented from taking steps to enforce the debt, however, we would point out that the agreement is not void and the debt still exists in fact.

                On this basis, the fact that non-payment will be registered with the credit reference agencies and will remain for a period of 6 years. Please note that, this may make it difficult for you to obtain any form of credit in the future.

                  Thank you for your letter dated 29th July 2013, which we received on the 2nd August 2013, the content of which has been noted.

                  We cannot locate a copy of the signed agreement at this time.

                  In light of your comments we can confirm that all collections activity will now cease. If , which is not admitted, the agreement is unenforceable under the Consumer Credit Act 1974 due to your allegation that you failed to sign it, the consequences are that the creditor maybe prevented from taking steps to enforce the debt, however, we would point out that the agreement is not void and the debt still exists in fact.

                  On this basis, the fact that non-payment will be registered with the credit reference agencies and will remain for a period of 6 years. Please note that, this may make it difficult for you to obtain any form of credit in the future.

                  There remains a balance outstanding on this account and legal action is now being considered . Should it be necessary to instruct solicitors to issue proceedings in the County Court, further additional amounts will be claimed which may increase the balance outstanding.

                  threat of courts cost and CCj's and none payment and bailiff ect .

                  update, only on the 16th August Simply Be wrote to me saying they couldn't find the agreement and said all recovery action will now cease , but then they have passed the account to Fredrickson International who are now threatening court action .
                  What should i do now please ?

                    I have an alleged Barclaycard account sitting with MKDP, I've been playing letter ping pong with them for around 9 months now, they are a bit like a dog with a bone and won't let go, in fact just received a letter yesterday telling me that as I have ignored repeated requests for payments, they are giving me one last chance to roll over and pay or they are passing it over to their pre litigation dept. (eg: the wally sat at the next desk!) Like I say they are persistent little bu8ggers, but it has took them over 9 months to get this far....

                    Good luck with beating them off.

                      Ref. Simply Be, If it was me I would write back to Fredricksons and inform them that the account is in dispute with Simply Be, and has been since they failed to comply with your CCA request, and to date they are still looking for your agreement, so at this time your position remains unchanged.
                      Thank you and goodbye.....

                              FORMAL COMPLAINT

                              Dear Sirs,

                              I am in receipt of your letter dated xxth March 2013, the contents of which are noted. Since your letter clearly refers to the threat of litigation, I am treating it as a formal letter of claim, albeit an entirely defective one. I refer you to the Civil Procedure Rules Pre Action Protocol Practice Direction, in particular Annex A and Annex B. You will note your letter fails spectacularly to comply with either of the aforesaid Annexes.

                              Since you are a firm of solicitors, I cannot excuse such failures, and place you on notice that any litigation on the back of this letter will result in an immediate application to the Court requesting the matter stayed with costs against you and your client on the indemnity basis. I refer you to Para 4.6 of the Practice Direction which explains the consequences of non compliance with the Pre Action Protocol.

                              I refer you also to my letter of 18th May 2013, which you signed for and have therefore presumably read. You have completely ignored the contents of that letter, and have chosen instead to send out a machine produced template which bears no relevance to the situation surrounding this alleged debt.

                              You will be aware that your clients remain in default of a legitimate request for information pursuant to The Consumer Credit (EU Directive) Regulations 2010 and also c.39 (s.74 (A&B) (VA)) CCA(1974). Your clients have a statutory obligation to provide this information, and without it I am unable to assess whether or not any liability exists to your clients, nor to assess the extent of any such liability should it exist. It would therefore be far more appropriate for you to deal with your incoming mail in a reasonable manner, instead of using machine produced threat letters as an expedient, and abusing the legal system by using it as a threat tool instead of a means of resolving disputes which cannot be settled any other way.

                              Accordingly, and in accordance with the CPR Pre Action Protocol Practice Direction, I look forward to your reply, dealing with the issues which were raised in my letter of 18th May. Note that any further obstructiveness and refusal to consider, or reply to, letters which are sent to you informing you of the true situation of your clients' affairs will result in a formal complaint being forwarded to the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

                              Yours Faithfully,


                              and this to RW -

                              FORMAL COMPLAINT

                              Dear Sirs,

                              I am in receipt of a letter dated xxth May 2013, from Drydens Fairfax solicitors. The letter is a formal letter of claim, threatening immediate court proceedings if I do not comply with their entirely unreasonable orders. As the solicitors have ignored my previous communication, and are refusing to discuss or even acknowledge the ongoing dispute relating to this alleged debt, they are in breach of the Civil Procedure Rules Pre Action Protocol Practice Direction, in particular Annex A and Annex B. Note that my letter of 18th May 2013, which was received and signed for, has been completely ignored.

                              Instead of responding to my legitimate dispute concerning your own failure to provide statutory information, the solicitors have mailed out a machine produced generic template which could apply to literally any alleged debt situation. This behaviour is obviously totally unacceptable, and any repeat thereof will result in a formal complaint being forwarded to the Solicitors Regulation Authority.

                              Notwithstanding this consideration, you remain legally responsible for the actions of any organisation which you engage on your behalf. It would therefore be in your own interests to deal with the ongoing dispute, of which you have been aware since you received my letter of 25th March 2013, instead of misusing solicitors purely for the purposes of threatening and frightening people. Your own nonsensical response dated 4th April 2013 is also a machine produced generic template, which is entirely inappropriate for the situation. You are obviously aware that communicating with alleged debtors in a misleading manner is contrary to the Office of Fair Trading Debt Collection Guidance, specifically Section 3.2.

                              I look forward to your response that you have withdrawn these badly behaved solicitors from this case, and that you are now prepared to deal with the issues raised in my previous communications. Any other response will result in this formal complaint being escalated to the Financial Ombudsman Service, and the Office of Fair Trading being informed of your continual breaches of their own published Guidance.

                              Yours Faithfully,


                              17/06/2013 from robinson way limited

                                If it were me I would just ignore it.

                                If they're making reduced settlement offers they're unlikely to take legal action. They're just trying to scare you..."further recovery action" often just means more letters.
