    Yes It makes a change - I'd not heard from them for so long I had to go into the archives and dust the file down . I bet they wish their filing was as good (not) so they could deal with all these CCA requests we're sending out .

    Cheers - have a good weekend

    I have an update to above account:

    UPDATE: 29/06/12

    Letter rec'd from Fredrickson: "...we refer to recent communication...we are no longer instructed in connection with this matter and have returned acc to our client..."

    The recent (or not so recent) communication they refer to is my last letter of 14/07/11 "account sold whilst in dispute". Took them some time to reply but all the while the SB clock is ticking. I will file and see who gets the account next.

    .......... Lets see who gets it next

    Letter rec'd from MKDP (in response to mine of 09/06/12): "...please accept this letter as final response...understand you believe we are unable to seek payment as Barclaycard have failed to comply with CCA...as stated previously Barclaycard are unable to provide CCA...and cannot enforce...but will continue all action short of enforcement...we are obliged to seek payments to outstanding balance and will continue collection activities..."

    As they say (again) Barclaycard are unable to provide CCA and unable to enforce but are just going to continue collection activities I will just ignore and see what they do next.

    You'll be fine then mate - we'll easily be able to drag it out for 6mths, a simple FOS complaint can do that and run it into SB status

    UPDATE 21/06/12:

    Letter rec'd from DG Solicitors: "...despite previous demands you have failed to pay this debt...unless immediate payment is made we have been asked by our client to instruct DCA to recover...it is possible there may be another solution...our client is willing to offer a discount of 20% to the amount outstanding and accept this sum as F&F as long as paid in 10 days...if you can pay this discounted sum contact us to arrange payment..."

    Do I need to do anything or just ignore? (my letter to them on 11/06/12 was delivered on 14/06/12)

    Many thanks
    Takes them at least 10 days if they reply I found, also be careful with DG (they are HSBCs inhouse guys)they lie then before you know it Northampton involved where they hope you are ignorant to the system, as Nothampton way they do not at that stage have to supply evidence.

    But it would seem possibly no enforceable CCA1974 as in a lot of their cases, offering 20% is unusual for them!! interesting.

    In my case followed what was suggested, in the back ground they were issuing N1, .

    Re: October Revolution's UE Diary

    Well, this is of interest to me as I'm at exactly the same stage with Crapbot/FIRE/Hilarity.

    I haven't yet fired off my first letter to them, but will do so soon. No two cases are the same, of course, but if they have scuttled off back to their hole after one letter it is hard to believe that they are going to be the toughest nut to crack.

    In my case I was hoping to string them along for a bit before it got sent back to Crapbot, because anything which absorbs a bit of time helps. Mine is now only six months from the SB date.

    Anyway, good job on yours and keep going.

    another e-mail from Cabot : "....our offer to you....we can offer you a 40% discount to your outstanding debt....if paid in next 30 days....we will close acc and mark as settled with CRA....contact us now....". I will ignore and see what happens next.

    15/02/12 - Yet another e-mail received from Cabot (last letter I had from them was 25/11/11), which I am unable to read, other than the subject line, which says ...."External Agent Notification". I have sent a reply e-mail back just saying the following: This email address is no longer active - please resort to an alternative method of contact.

    22/02/12 - Letter rec'd from Financial Investigations and Recoveries (Europe) Ltd (F.I.R.E): "....NOTIFICATION OF INSTRUCTION TO COLLECT....our client Cabot have instructed us to recover full amount....PAYMENT REQUIRED IMMEDIATELY....contact us....". I2D says to ignore

    27/02/12 - E-mail rec'd from F.I.R.E: "....make us a reasonable offer....as final attempt to resolve and stop further action....will consider reasonable offer as F&F or payment plan....contact us in next 14 days....". I will ignore, other than sending this e-mail back to them: "This email address is no longer active - please resort to an alternative method of contact." and will await their next reply.

    17/03/12 - Letter rec'd from FIRE: "....PRE-VISIT NOTIFICATION....debt referred to us from Cabot....you must contact us in 48 hours to pay in full or arrange repayment....failure may result in....our client taking LEGAL PROCEEDINGS against you or a DOORSTEP AGENT calling....contact us now....". I2D says ignore

    25/04/12 - Letter from FIRE: "...previously advised if debt not paid we would take further action...been instructed by our client to instruct debt recovery agent to collect debt...call us immediately or we will pass acc to Doorstep Agent...call us now...". I will IGNORE

    09/06/12 - Letter from Cabot: "...as we have not come to a mutual agreement your acc is being passed to Clarity Credit Management for collection...Then in the same envelope letter from Clarity: "...insrtucted by Cabot to arrange payment...we can offer 25% discount...contact us now...". I2D says "Account sold whilst in dispute" - letter sent

    Hi Niddy/I2D,

    I have an update to above account:

    UPDATE: 18/06/12:

    Letter rec'd from Clarity: "...this acc has now been returned to our client...further communication to you will come directly from them..."

    Didn't take much for Clarity to run off with their tail between their legs

    I will file and see what happens next.
