JASSASBLUE - UE Diary

[nightwatch]

Hi,
no need to say anything, unless they start to get shirty.
some still write to us even though they are SB, I would miss the odd missive from them, It's nice to "keep in touch".

If mail on redirect I would leave it for now, will the new owners have a forwarding address, just incase anything slips through? as long as they know NOT to give it to anyone.
Good Luck in your new home, hope the move goes to plan.

CRAs should have new address registered by councils or similar my bank did mine after moving

[Warwick65]

I agree with NW. If you have redirect and the accounts are SB then say nothing. I still get the odd annual letter from companies where the debt is SB. I just ignore

2 accounts with Barclaycard, this one and the next post up.

20/01/20 - 2 letters received, 1 x Barclaycard, they've assigned and transferred account to Hoist Finance UK Holdings 3 Ltd who have chosen Robinson Way Ltd to act on their behalf - ignored as per Di

31/01/20 - Text received urgent that I call Robinson Way before action

08/02/20 - Daily texts and voicemails received from Robinson Way asking me to contact asap - all ignored
14/02/20 - Changed my mobile number due to constant harassment from Robinson Way
12/03/20 - Letter from Robinson Way, they are unable to contact me (you don't say!), they request I contact them as a matter urgency regarding the outstanding balance - ignored

Advice required please, I have been ignoring monthly letters from Robinson Way, since November 2020 Hoist Finance are sending letters every week asking for payment. They have somehow acquired my work mobile phone number and are calling several times per day. I have blocked the number, I work for Emergency Services and this is my on call number, god only knows where they have got it from.

My last payment to all Creditors was December 2013, however re this debt, I contacted the Ombudsman in August 2015 to complain about Barclaycard defaulting me 8 years after entering a DMP. I understand from previous advice this could be seen as an acknowledgment of the debt and may not be statute barred as a result (depends how much Robinson Way now Hoist know).

I've since moved house, January 2021 and none of my creditors have my new address. I really don't want a visit to my old house. What shall I do now? The letters are thick and fast along with the blocked calls (diverting to my voicemail which is a nuisance).

Sorry for the long post, all other debts are statute barred over a year.

Thank you - Julie

Harassment by Telephone at Work

[Warwick65]

If I am honest I would think twice before sending that letter. I say this because you need to be sure it is accurate. It says
'lack of diligence in dealing with my formal demands to cease calling me at my place of work'

have you actually asked them not to call you at work?

There are other things in there that you may or may not have asked them to do.

Now you have blocked them, are you still notified of missed calls.

Do you still have mail redirection set up?

So at most you have until August to get to, you are right though, Hoist may not know about your complaint.

If they write to you and get heavy you could send a new CCA request, it will be interesting if they could produce something when BC said they can't.

Hi Warwick65, thank you for your advice, I did look at the telephone letter and like you did think about the "lack of diligence" quote. Yes I have mail redirection set up until September 2021, I think maybe the new CCA request is a better option.
Thank you for your reply, Julie

I would hang fire with the CCA request just at the moment. Keep that back in case they start to get heavy. If the calls to your mobile do become a problem then a short and sweet "You have tried to contact me by phone on several occasions. Please take note I will only accept communication in writing, please desist from calling ". No mention of the account or debt or anything like that- Keep it simple

The way I see it is that you have a letter from Barclaycard confirming their acceptance that this debt is unenforceable since they could't comply with your CCA Request. Hold that thought

You are now understandably upset by calls to your mobile phone at work.

You believed this debt was also Statute Barred but now accept that your complaint to the FOS in 2015 may have been an acknowledgment of the debt so it's probably not SB.

Anything you do now will attract Hoist's attention to your file, which could have negative consequences, although that won't alter the fact that this debt appears to be unenforceable albeit only a court can decide that.

You're getting phone calls not letters. You say you've moved house so maybe these calls are an attempt to trace you? Do you have Royal Mail redirect set up?

I wouldn't do anything right now unless you receive a threat of legal proceedings (and then you can contact me).

Feb 2021 - Letter from Debt Managers, they have checked my credit file and think I have moved house, (correct I bought a new property Jan 2021, mail on redirect for a year). Since then, I have daily emails, phone calls and weekly letters with various quotes re payments, further action and house visits.

This debt was statute barred Dec 2019, I've never sent a letter regarding SB, should I send one now? All this contact is a pain!

Hello

I agree contact by debt collectors can be a pain, but reacting too soon to the contact could cause you a pain if the debt isn't legally Statute Barred so they then pounce on you and issue a county court claim.

The last payment date isn't necessarily the reason for a debt to be Statute Barred. Sometimes it can relate to the Default Notice etc.

You say you have Royal Mail Redirect set up and that's where the letter was sent before being forwarded to you.

If you reply to them with a letter then you will have admitted that you are in receipt of mail to your old address, so if they did issue/serve a claim to that address you could find it tricky to argue that you didn't receive it if you need to make an Application to have any CCJ (Default Judgment) set aside.

More importantly you will have given them your current address (you can't lie about that) so they could issue/serve a claim there.

Try to be patient before reacting or responding to that annoying letter.

I'll take a peek back at the history of this debt on Monday.

Don't let that letter spoil your weekend.

I've taken a hasty look back at your thread and can see that you thought another of your debts was Statute Barred but then reconsidered that might not have been the legal situation because you had made a refund request progressed to the FOS which may have acknowledged the debt.

The last payment towards a debt is not necessarily the 'cut off' point for a successful Statute Barred legal argument.

Maybe you should consider your legal position with this debt before you tell them that they don't have legal leg to stand on just in case they do.

My feeling is it's better to establish that (your legal position) now then argue it in a court with a Judge who might adopt a 'debt avoider' attitude to their decision with legal cost consequences added to the bill even if they were wrong. If that were to happen then you maybe able to appeal but there’s a costs risk attached to that too.

Maybe think carefully before you send a letter which may raise the temperature of this situation until you are certain of your legal position?

[Warwick65]

I tend to agree with Di. The content of your thread that just niggled was 2017 where you sent a SWID with a one liner. This is exactly the sort of thing that worries me.

I had a debt and in May 2015 I sent a letter saying I can not pay you any more, not even what your asking. It worried me that a judge might see that as an admission and not the ravings of a very stressed man who would have sold his granny to get them off my back. Luckily the date of that letter was 1st May 2015 but even so I won’t tell them.

You will see NW has accounts long since SB and uses the letters for scrap paper. I do the same
