Pip's UE Diary

Re: Pip's UE Diary

Wescot have an email address so that can save you £1.55.

If you really must send emails to debt collectors then make sure that you set up a new free web based email account just for that purpose. That way you can just delete the account when you've finished with it. You don't want DCA scum spamming the hell out of any email address you use for sensible purposes.

Personally I'd avoid email contact altogether unless I was going to engage in protracted dialogue with someone in authority about compliance issues. Then you really could save an amount which would make it worthwhile.

Re: Pip's UE Diary

Thanks Vint.
I still haven't managed to finish reading through the reams of other threads to do with Arrow and their trigger-happy litigation. Would I send the Sold in Dispute letter to both Arrow and Wescot?

Many thanks!

Re: Pip's UE Diary

MBNA have been selling a lot of these on to Arrow.

Sold while in dispute letter is the one you need to send.

JAN CCA Request sent to MBNA
JAN CCA received -- emailed Niddy -- Niddy says half and half
JAN Sent Missing Prescribed Terms letter to MBNA
JAN Letter received from MBNA saying "Balance sold to Britannica Recoveries S.á.r.l. Mortlake"; with letter in same envelope from "Moorgate Loan Servicing". The wording says "it's been purchased", but there is no Notice of Assignment ...
FEB Letter from MBNA: Documents provided do comply with CCA requirements // As such, there is no need to seek an enforcement order in order to exercise our rights.
FEB Letter from Moorgate Loan Servicing: (referring to "Loan Account Number" -- it wasn't a loan). Not received payment on your a/c. Your a/c will now be transferred to our appointed agents, Arden Credit Management who will contact you to discuss repayment of the outstanding balance. (There is no reference in this letter to the original MBNA account whatsoever)
FEB Letter from Arden "Credit Managment": We have been instructed by Moorgate Loan Servicing to recover an amount outstanding to them. We have assumed responsibility for working with you to repay this amount; therefore all communication should be with us. Please call on receipt of this letter to discuss repayment. Easiest way to pay is debit or CREDIT CARD.
MAR Letter from Arden "Credit Managment": I am very concerned that you have not taken steps to address balance referred to in previous letter // Failure to come to an acceptable arrangement could result in sending someone to your address to discuss matter in person, passing account to solicitors to obtain judgment and enforcement action in line with your circumstances (e.g. charging orders/attachment of earnings). These have potential for increasing your current balance as charges for someone to speak to you in person would be added to your amount owed. CCJs will impact credit rating etc. This is an extremely urgent matter and one you should not ignore. To avoid any potential additional charges or negative impact to credit file, contact us ...
MAR Sent Prove It letter
MAR Letter from Arden: We are writing to confirm that the present situation of non-payment on the above account is not acceptable. // Full balance due and payable // You are in breach of this requirement; options available to you: monthly instalments/lump sum // Should you choose to do nothing, we may take further action: agent in person/legal action. Do not ignore this letter.
MAR Letter from Arden: Thank you for your letter dated xxx. I am presently investigating the comments you raised and a full response will be sent shortly.
APR Letter from Moorgate Loan Servicing: MBNA wrote advising your credit agreement had been cancelled // Options available to them included Sale of Debt. Your account has now legally been sold to Britannica Recoveries. We will consider complaint closed if we have not heard from you within eight weeks. They also enclosed a weirdly "hey! trendy! cool!" letter from Virgin Money: We're pleased to enclose a copy of your most recent T&Cs. Don't forget some of the other fantastic features of your account: Log on to do blah blah etc. You can even go paperless! [squeals with knicker-wetting excitement]. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your custom and we look forward to hearing from you soon. They enclose "current" MBNA T&Cs -- 6 pages -- even though it's no longer current as MBNA have sold the account ..?
JUN Letter from Arden Credit Mgt: ***FINAL DEMAND*** I am extremely concerned that despite all of our attempts to contact you and discuss the above account you persist in refusing to address the outstanding balance. // Should you continue to ignore our requests for payment proposals, we will be left with no option but to review your account for further action to be taken ... this may mean home visit to discuss reason for non-payment, or account being passed to solicitors to initiate legal proceedings. We will be reviewing account in 7 calendar days; please contact our offices immediately ...
JUN Letter to Arden Credit Mgt: Telling them last letter received from them was in March saying "a full response will be sent to you shortly".
JUL Letter from Moorgate Loan Servicing: Sorry to learn of your dissatisfaction with the service received; complaints are taken seriously, [blah etc]. With reference to your letter of xx March 2012, our final response was sent on xx April 2012 (copy enclosed). Moorgate Loan Servicing has now appointed Arden Credit Mgt to manage your loan account. I can see from our records that Arden has made several attempts to contact you to discuss the account. The telephone calls have been made due to the need for a payment arrangement in line with your personal affordability and where possible to include proposals to reduce your account arrears. // Arden has tried to contact you to discuss the situation and I apologise that you have been upset by these calls. However payments do need to be mutually agreed and maintained. I note that you have not made a payment since xx January 2012. Failure to contact Arden immediately may now result in legal proceedings. Therefore contact us on [phone number] to discuss options to discharge yourself from this responsibility. // We are responding to your enquiry in respect of a loan with Britannica Recoveries SARL-Mortlake on behalf of Moorgate Loan Servicing. // Financial ombudsman info etc. blah.
JUL Letter from Arden Credit Mgt: Despite our numerous attempts to contact you we have not had a response from you or an indication of willingness from you to resolve this matter. Further to our last correspondence we have reviewed your account and determined that further action is necessary. To that end, I am going to instruct field agents to attend your property to discuss the matter with you in person. A fee for the visit will be charged to you with the amount not exceeding £75.00. We can cancel this if you contact us within five days of this letter and make satisfactory arrangements regarding your account.
JUL Sent Threat of Doorstep Visit letter to Arden Credit Mgt
JUL Letter from Resolvecall: We have been instructed by Arden Credit Mgt to contact you regarding the outstanding balance due to them by you. Arden Credit Mgt advise us that they have not been able to contact you [but I have been in contact with them] and they are concerned that you may be experiencing difficulty meeting your repayments. It is in your interest to contact Arden immediately upon receipt of this letter to discuss this account as a matter of urgency so that they can try and help you find a way to repay the outstanding balance. // If you do not contact Arden, this may lead to a personal visit being made by one of our representatives. // To avoid the need for this action, please call Arden on 0800 blah at once. They are happy to accept payment over the phone by debit/credit card. // Act now to get help; Please do not ignore this letter.
JUL Sent Threat of Doorstep Visit letter to Resolvecall

AUG Letter from Arden Credit Mgt: Thank you for your recent letters. The notification sent to you dated July 2012 informing you that we were going to instruct agents to your property confirms our appointment. [???] We provided you with a copy of your credit agreement in April 2012. I enclose a statement of your account* for your information. Please contact us in order to discuss your payment proposals. Failure to do so may result in further action being taken. We will not be releasing you from your obligation. I hope this clarifies our position.
AUG Statement of Account enclosed with above letter: Please find detailed below a breakdown of your account, as requested.
Date --- Transaction Type --- Debit --- Credit --- Balance. Should you have any queries regarding the above, please contact this office on 0845 ... Yours sincerely. [There are no digits or figures shown on this "statement" whatsoever!]
AUG Letter from Arden Credit Mgt: Thank you for your recent letter dated xx August 2012. Our position remains as outlined in our previous responses. We have nothing further to add. I trust this clarifies our position in this matter.
NOV Letter from Moorgate: Britannica Recoveries S.a.r.l. - Mortlake have sold this account to Arrow Global Guernsey ("Arrow Global"). The transfer assigns all rights as owner to Arrow Global.

Hmm. They didn't hang about ... got this today an' all:

This account will be managed on behalf of Arrow Global Guernsey Ltd by Wescot and all future payments and correspondence should be sent to Wescot. If you are not making regular payments on this account place contact Wescot as soon as possible. [Data Protection act gubbins on reverse of letter]

Re: Pip's UE Diary

is the CCA they sent exactly the same as you had before and Niddy deemed UE?

Hello FP -- yes it's the same as before. Niddy said it was nigh-on enforceable though .... --> post #92- Pip's UE Diary

Do you think the Fred letter requires a response at this stage -- or is it a sit-on-your-hands job? (Is he still going, by the way, over the road?)

I'll look in the diaries to see how vicious RBS/Fredrickson are when it comes to real litigation threats (none as such in this letter just yet, but it's quite firmly worded and they have sent a copy of the CCA) ...

Re: Pip's UE Diary

The interesting thing about Arrow according to the Top 30 pop parade of DCA's is they dont have in house collections. That is the business model they use and its has apparently been very successful for them. So much so its catapulted them into joint top spot with Lowell.

All collections are farmed out. So utimately they will be the finger on the trigger granted but it will be also something to do with the collecting DCA aswell.

Which ones are more confident of litigation and which ones use excitable munchkins.

Cant recall if all the ones which have just gone through were a marriage in hell of Arrow and just one other DCA.

[Pip]

Re: Pip's UE Diary

Do keep an eye out for letters but don't panic! Virtually all MBNA accounts have been sold to Arrow (except mine so far ), who have issued a few claims as you know, HOWEVER, Plan B got a Letter Before Action from solicitors acting on behalf of Arrow and she saw them off!

For now I'd just wait for Arrow to make contact, at which point I'd hit them with the Sold in Dispute letter to start with.

Thanks FP! I'll have a good read through the two threads to see how things developed. Should be a little while before they introduce themselves though. This was my first account that had got sold on, and it's somehow encouraging that it got sold on yet again, even if it was to Arrow ...
