Ok, Thanks for that MrsD,

so another in-house outfit eh! No worries there then.

It did also say on the letter: "...if you do not hear from them in 14 days please contact them directly...". NOW, as if I'm gonna do that .

No doubt they will be in touch before Christmas with my Christmas card and a nice letter asking for payment or payment proposals to which, as you state MrsD, I will send the "acc sold whilst in disute" letter back to them.

I2D says send "acc sold whilst in dispute" - Letter sent.

18/07/12 : Letter rec'd from Moorcroft: "important information - possible litigation...contact us in next 7 days to avoid". As it's crossed with my "Acc sold in dispute" letter above I will ignore and see what they do next.

Letters? You've only had 1! And they've hardly given you time to reply to it.

I think you're right to wait and see what they reply with to the Account Sold Whilst in Dispute letter.

Thanks Pixie,

I have Wescot's on a few other accounts of mine and this one seems to be taking the same pattern as them (so far) so think I know roughly what to expect next (ie. "thanks for your letter...we are looking into complaint"...2/3 weeks later I may get "looked into complaint and client states complied with CCA request..so pay up". Then a few more letters back and forth before it's passed on to some one else). This has just happened with my HSBC/Metropolitan acc - Although I do realise not all accounts/Creditors/DCA's take the same route and each one has to be taken on its own merits.

I will wait and see what comes from them next.

Hi Niddy/I2D,

I have an update to the above account:

UPDATE: 08/12/12:

Letter rec'd from Buchanan Clark and Wells (as expected but quicker than I thought !): "...our clients have informed us they see no legitimate reason for non-payment...we have been granted access to your financial information held with CRA and will be monitoring this along with data from other sources to assess your ability to solve this matter...imperative you contact us...we are able to offer support...please do not ignore this matter...".

OK, so nice to hear they're monitoring my credit file. I can save them the trouble because when they check they will see I've not paid any of my creditors for over 2 years (after finding AAD, Niddy and others here ) and not used credit of any form for over 3 years.

Good luck to them. "Can't have what I haven't got".

I assume I send the account sold whilst in dispute template letter? Then they'll see the "legitimate reason for non-payment" which HSBC have declined to inform them about !!!!

many thnaks
