Thanks for all your replies and advice,

Lesson before you rush off and send anything check on here to see what others recommend, too many jump in when it back fires on them, ??

Yes, lesson learnt I will try not to rush things through in future and seek advice on here first.

Wescot (Wetcloths) never own debt they are commission agents get paid if collect, CCA request always to the owner of any alledged debt.

Thanks for the info, unfortunately, the CCA has already been sent to Cabot Financial Europe Ltd. I hope it doesn't cause any problems. Is it a case now of waiting to see what the response will be? The letter received from Mint (Royal Bank of Scotland) states; 'On 3rd July 2017, your account was assigned to Cabot Financial (UK) Ltd who are now the legal owners of the debt'. 'Wescot Credit Services will continue to manage your account on behalf of Cabot Financial (UK) Ltd. and deal directly with your authorised 3rd party'.

So Cabot Financial (UK) Ltd using Wescot as opposed to Cabot Financial Europe Ltd?

"..The exact reasons we want to keep sensitive if you don't mind..."

You have set the Cat amongst the pigeons by sending the CCA S.78 plus £1 to Cabot Financial Europe Ltd.
Lets see what happens next!!

Make sure your Diary includes this information.

Yes, don't chase them. I hope you sent it recorded delivery, then you can print off from the Royal Mail website in a few days, confirmation of the delivery date.

Yes, I agree, it seems as though Wescot are passing the buck. They offered to forward the CCA request if I supplied another £1 postal order made out to Cabot, which would take more time and delay things. I thought it best to send a new CAA request directly to Cabot, at least then I was able to keep the momentum going.

Wescot are Cabot's Agents!
Your CCA S.78 plus £1 is valid and binding on Cabot.

Better to NOT send that CCA S.78 to Cabot.

What I recommend is looking for whom the Official Creditor is here (it will be on Cabot's letter's and Notice Of assignment).
Cabot themselves act as Agents within their own group!

I wouldn't worry about keeping momentum going, fighting UE is a long process and we don't rush things.

I believe that Westcot are ducking their responsibility, and should have done what Fredrickson did as per your previous post (#21).

As regard their 23rd Feb deadline - ignore it, you will not be making a repayment plan while there is an outstanding CCA74 request..

[chris335f]

Not a good start. I received a reply from Wescot and they have returned the CCA request with the £1 postal order stating that the credit agreement request should be sent to Cabot Financial Europe Ltd. Wescot concluded by saying I need to make arrangements to pay the account and have placed the account on hold until 23rd February to enable me to agree to a repayment arrangement. It makes me wonder who I am supposed to be dealing with here? I have now sent a CCA request to Cabot along with a copy of the letter from Wescot.

[chris335f]

Update: I have received a reply from Fredrickson, CAA request has been referred to Capital One to provide relevant documentation. Fredrickson will revert in due course.

Thanks for your advice, which I read with interest.

I went through my documents and found both the original letters from Barclaycard not dated, but it shows the outstanding balances as of 16th August 2012. They are informing me of the transfer of the debt to Link Financial Outsourcing Ltd. I guess that means that the original defaults were placed by Barclaycard in May 2012? Two years after I commenced my DMP plan.

Searching through my other documents, I also found a default notice that was sent to me by Mint card dated 20th April 2010. Might it be useful to still have this documentation?

[The Tech Clerk]

agreed

This was before I found this site!!!
I to had a SAR outstanding that arrived far to late!
The poor advice and muddle thinking from elsewhere on the net cost me!
I know that the outcome would have been very different if I had followed AAD!

Lets see that Chris335 doesn't get bamboozled or short changed here!
