Re: New and confused

Hi, received a letter from Lowells re Co op account above stating last payment received was for £121 in Nov 2011 and i need to send documentary evidence that it has been settled in full so they can investigate further. On hold for 30 days. I'm confused as they would only have received about £10 per month and we stopped paying in June 2011

You don't need to send them documentary evidence of anything. They are a commercial operation, albeit one which produces no goods or services of any value, and not an authority. If they believe that your assertion is wrong, and that a debt exists, the responsibility is entirely theirs to demonstrate this.

Judging by the fact that they are quoting fake payments, they are either trying to pull a fast one, or they have genuinely mixed this up with another account.

Re: New and confused

Lowells are the pits and one John Broadbent is bang out of order, still he will be pleased when they get a bill from the FOS for £850 lol as my complaint has gone in.

Not bothered really if the FOS find in my favour or not to be honest just knowing that it is costing them is good enough for me lol

Re: New and confused

Received a letter from Co op today giving notice of assignment to Lowells. This was originally a debt for £900 in 2003 when we went on a dmp with CCCS,as it was then, until 2011. I've not got all the statememnts but the account went to Frederickson's in 2009 along with 2 other small accounts. According to my dmp staments all accounts had a zero balance when we stopped paying it. The accompanying letter from Lowells today states that before selling the account,Co op have checked their records and there is no reson the account should remain unpaid.Can you advise me please?

Hi, Had a nice quiet few weeks but received a letter from Lowells saying they have answered my query and i now need to set up an arrangemement to pay. Should i continue to ignore please?

Re: New and confused

Received a letter from Lowells saying that they assume we are unwilling to pay so are obtaining a copy of our credit file and may even obtain work details and will then decide whether to use court or doorstep agent.

Ignore for now, but keep the letter safe. They are only trying to frighten you into making the first move. You've been around long enough not to be fooled.

Clownell, you are going to have to do better than that.
