Nightwatch & Hubbys Diary of debt

[PlanB]

will file in the extra large bottom draw.

There's a slight air of desperation about that 'offer' with their willingness to accept £400 on a balance of almost £4k after they've been chasing you relentlessly since 2018.

I would think this is probably their last throw of the dice (fingers crossed).

After all this debt is Statute Barred, and has been for some time

11/03 [05/03] letter from Tesco recoveries,Important you must take action-call us today,despite previous correspondence and our repeated attempts to try and reach an arrangement with you, the debt still remains outstanding.
we will shortly have no alternative but to seek the assistance of a debt collection agency or, if appropriate, commence legal proceedings against you for the recovery of the debt.
I am to make an acceptable offer of repayment within the next 7 days
25/03 letter from Moroncroft (23/03) my account details have been passed to them from Tesco Bank,they are acting as collection agent for them, they will be in contact with me within the next 7 days by letter and/or phone to discuss my repayment options in detail, well tesco can't have a valid CCA, if they can't read and answer my last letter I'll just have to start the ride again

06/04 letter from moronics of possible further action if no contact is made by 12/04. I could contact them now and they would be happy to discuss a repayment program, they may also be able to offer a substantial discount off the outstanding balance.

they also advise that the account is on a temporary hold to allow me time to receive this letter and contact them to discuss a payment arrangement I can afford and maintain, if contact is not made promptly, their follow up of the account will recommence. just to make clear. Tesco sent me a photo copy of the signed agreement and T&C dated 2012 but no original T&C and the covering letter said it was sent under the Data Protection Act 1998 , and when I sent the Missing PT letter they sent me the same 2 pages so how have they complied with my CCA request
UE CCA received letter sent to morcomics
17/05 letter from moronics(14/05) their clients believe that the documents sent do meet the requirements under s78 of the Consumer Credit Act.They go on to explain what may be omitted from the document and that there is no requirement to provide a signed 'Executed' copy of the agreement.
their client believe that the balance remains due and payable and they therefore require immediate payment of the said sum or my realistic proposals for repayment of the same within the next 14 days
21/05 letter from morecomics(20/5) to prevent further action I am to send my payment proposal before 27/05 or telephone them within the next 7 days sorry their last letter dated 14th states 14 days 14+14= 28, so they can wait
If i do not contact them following receipt of this letter they MAY have no alternative other than to recommend to their clients that they consider further debt recovery action against me deary me I'm quivering in my armchair. no PT, no compliant CCA. sorted
6/6 letter from Morecomics (3/6) as they have not received any communication from me with regards to my outstanding account, they feel that I may not be in a position to meet their request to clear the account in full.gosh they get have feelings
to prevent their recommendation to their client that further debt recovery action be considered they are prepared to accept payments of �120 a month,to take advantage of this offer I must,
contact them by phone err no
make payment by website erm No
send payment attached to letter and no again
if I do not reply I MAY leave them with no other option but to recommend to their client that they CONSIDER further debt recovery action against me
18/6 letter from Midas cs,(17/06) they are aware that i have not agreed a repayment for this debt with moronics. they are now reviewing the account prior to the possible recommending of further debt recovery action to their clients.Now are they talking about Tesco or morcomics being their client
they would remind me that unless we can agree a settlement of this account, the default which their client may have registered against my credit file will remain unchanged. are they using a default as a threat , cos the Tesco wouldn't remove it anyway To prevent possible further action I must contact Morecrap now.
04/07 letter from Morcronic (01.07) their records show I have not made any payments to them must have a newbie in accounts so my account has been passed to the next desk along Home collections Division, for action.So are they collecting home's now along with door steps?

If I would prefer to agree a repayment arrangement or I believe there is an outstanding query on the account I must telephone no later than 08/07 i'm busy washing my hair

27/07 letter from morecrap We are agents of Tesco Bank, Their records show that the above account has an outstanding balance, They have therefore asked us to contact the account holder to discuss the account and we have been provided this address by a credit reference agency that supply us with addresses links based on the information they hold.Please contact us to confirm the position and so that we can make the appropriate arrangements.
However if you believe that you are not the person responsible for the account, it is important you contact us immediately, either by telephone or letter. they told me that they were agents back in March, they have also told me how outstanding my balance is, but never sent me an award for it,and why have they found my address through a CRA when they have been writing to me and I have been replying? errr what position do I need to confirm ? If i write and tell them I'm deceased will they make funeral arrangements?

05/08 letter to morecrap pointing them back to my letter sent in may also asking what position I am to confirm,and why do they need to look me up when they have been sending letters containing confidential details since march, so it is a little late to find out if the correct person lives at this address .

12/08 letter from Morecrap (10/08) in capitals, Important information-possible further action. I am to contact them in the next 7 days, or send my payment proposal before 17th Aug, to prevent possible further debt recovery action, If i don't they may have no alternative than to recommend to their client that they consider possible further debt recovery action against me, they may be able to offer a substantial discount from the outstanding balance, Oh dear me, the newbie has done it again and sent me letters from the past.

Should I require further copies I need to make my request again DIRECT to their client and enclose the £1.00 fee as they have complied with this request twice already.
Fred says they would be grateful if I would contact them with my payment proposal by 25th November if they do not hear from me collection activity MAY resume.

reply :Dear 2F, FU. as you are part of Wescot you will know that I have requested no contact by phone, yet I can see by my call log that you have tried contacting me this way 6 times this month.I shall make this clear. This account is in dispute, No valid CCA has been received. this account is UE and will remain so unless a valid CCA is forthcoming. I will not be sending £1.00 fee for another CCA as the originasl request was not fullfilled. so I suggest you return this to the original creditor and ask them to send a compliant CCA, admit that they dont have one, or stop harrassing me . now piss off your turning my strawberrys and cream sour. NWplease note I may not send it in this format this is only my oppinion at this time .

Call them on xxxxxxx if I need any help to complete the form, or to discuss the most suitable solution to manage my account.

I don't have any income, It's all hubbys so another NO,

I don't need help filling in the I & E with zero's so won't be calling them
the most suitable solution to manage the alledged account is to continue to ignore all letters til they realise it's SB.

15/01/20
have today received letter from RW asking how they can make this work?? they can help-but need to hear from me, their team can set up a payment plan designed to help manage the account, BUT, they need to get in touch to make sure it is affordable to personal circumstances,
so they need to register the account on line. or want someone to give them a ring.

Dear RW,
I have decided my own repayment plan,it is the one I have been on since March 2012,
I worked out how much I wanted to pay, found it was affordable and have stuck to it through thick and thin,
I do not need to contact anyone,
I find I can still manage things by myself, even though I am now getting on in years, so I will not be troubling your *specially* trained team.
I suggest the way forward is to;-
Check the default date 2003,
check last payment date 2012,
check how much it is costing you to keep sending out letters
Think is it worth it, she never replies

09/2020
letter from RW, Flexable solutions for challenging times,
They understand all too well how the current situation makes it difficult to plan too far into the future,
me thinks they are having a cash flow problem
they ask me to set up an online payment plan, i can make use of their income and expeniture tool and their portal will never let me set up a plan i cannot afford.
Now i was tempted to do this as.
1, I have no income, it's all hubbys till I get my pension in 2 years,
2, I was interested to see how the "portal" would cope with all the zero's
I refrained from temptation.
they now have a "friendly" chat bot called KAI, as that is my name in Spanish I would be talking to myself, I already do that.
back to the filing cabinet.

Feb 2021
letter from Hoist Finance, have they sacked RW?
they say they recently contacted me, 5 months ago, telling me of the flexible ways to pay my account.
If I were to set up a payment plan, they MAY be able to pay some of the balance for me, to see if I am eligible for a " You pay, We pay" plan i am to log on to their web site.
I much prefer a "No pay, Go away" plan

18/02

10/05
letter from hoist
Hello choose a way to pay, you may be eligible for a discount, IF I set up a payment plan,

11/08/21 letter from hoist, Do you need some help to manage your account? No thanks

Once upon a time in a land of milk and honey,
the Bees stopped producing and the milk turned sour.
The kitchen maid in the big house had to give up work to look after family, she went from buying a whole chicken to just a chicken thigh, with bone for added flavor.
But the wicked elves that had let her have virtual money in the past were not willing to help her reduce the amount of real money they wanted in return.
one day she went off in search of some help, following the red haze she came across a strange man that told her about a magic paper, A CCA, he said, ask the elves for it, the maid did as asked, the elves were not happy, "How does a maid know of such things" they cried.
I know, said the big elf, lets send her some paper she won't know the difference, but when the maid showed the strange man what she had been given he laughed and laughed and opened up a portal to a magic world that held all kinds of people ready to help fight the naughty elves.
soon, with the help of some of those people, six, or more, years had passed , the maid had not paid the Elves and the maid now helped others with their problem.
The End. (of the story)



OMG This just made me smile from ear to ear and laugh so much i'm actually crying - If ever there was a way to capture the journey so many people here have been on in a verse, This is it. Its oh so true

Enclosed was a notice from Cabot dated 08/11/18, introducing them selves as the new owners of the account saying they will be intouch soon and, how they are looking forward to talking to me.

sorry to dissapoint, but I will not be talking to them,
I have not heard a word from NW since thay passed the debt to Arc in 2014 and then Arc passed it back to Nationwide 2015

Will wait and see what comes next, not SB till next year but as Nationwide said years ago they have sent all the account info , they can't have the T&C's for this account, why worry.

Nov 2018,
a few calls this month from Cabot, they are automated and don't ask for any one person, just if you are free to call them, I am NOT free I am expensive, just ask the hubby.

29/11, leter from Cabot (23/11) they tell me the balance is outstanding, thats nice, they would like to offer affordable/ Flexable payment options to suit me, I like the one i'm on at the moment,
they would like to help me, but, I need to contact them
What COULD happen if I don't talk to them

my credit file could be affected next

they MAY have to consider othert ways to recover the debt Oh go on

I will receive calls/letters until i contact them. phone blocks and a good filing system

The outstanding amount will remain due, no s**t sherlock!,

they tell me to have a great day and they look forward to talking to me
signed by the delightful Deb Green

oh yes, it also states that the current creditor is Cabot Financial UK Ltd

31st dec letter from Cabot, Explore you options for repaying, Did I know I have several options available and Cabot would like to help me find the right one,
By talking to them I can find out how their affordable playment plans work, they can also tell me if i'm eligable for a discount.
I have already made a start by reading this letter
Dear Debbie, thank you so much for the offer of help. but I have already know how repayment plans work, I have also found how to deal with this alledged account.
so I will continue with the plan I have had in place for almost 6 years,0 payments of £0.00, till you find the correct paperwork.
What was that I havn't told you it's SWID, wait a bit longer and I will.

also received an automated call at lunch time, they never say who they want to talk to so hang up.

2019
02/01, called at 9 am eager little beavers arn't they
22/01 letter from Cabot, they understand it may be difficult to clear the acount in a short period of time, especially when there are other prioritys to take into consideration. yep my account with bargin booze
they waffle on about understanding debt and how they would like me to talk to them about how they could help to repay the account in the short term.
they own the account and are prepared to reduce the balance in order to help me become free of this debt sooner, subject to agreeing appropriate terms of repayment.
to take up their offer I am to call them and speak to someone asap.
If not I need to advise them of my proposal to clear the account.
a final parting message, This account may affect my credit rating and my ability to get credit in the future. Ask our team if the account is registered.

20/02/19
letter frm Cabot,We have not heard from you,
we have advised of several options that are available, all of which are in an attempt to help you be free of this debt,
you can pay on a monthly basis or make a proposal to clear the account at a reduced balance over several months.
if you start making payments towards the account then the balance will reduce.
If you clear the account then your file will be updated to show that no balance is outstanding. TALK TO US
signed by dishy debbie.

why would I want to pay now, I like the payments i am making,(zero) it is not on my credit file, nor are any of the others in this diary,

28/02 Cabot understand how difficult it is to clear an account in a short time, they propose to help clear it by accepting 25% BUT, I have to phone to discuss their offer,which also means I admit the debt and they can ask for more.
Now as tempting as that offer sounds, why would I want to pay an UE debt,
Sorry Ms Green offer declined

i have received a lovley glossy leaflet fromCabot, on the back it tells me that now is the time to take control.
Inside tells me the many ways they can help me, how they have a shiny new website.
If I register and activate the account online I can have £25 off the account
also their on line budget planning tool can help manage finances, who's ? just another name for I & E

11/05 email from Cabot, they have been trying to contact me,

it is a lovely colourful email, with pictures of bright open spaces, with click to link boxes, that can help me be free from debt, buy following their guru gide,
"The path to a debt free life", it offers me "easy to follow" links to budget, for a better life, live my dream, become as one with a Cabot repayment plan,

It seems dishy Debbie Green is't in on this one as it is under the watchful eye of, Nicola Millson, Senior Customer Operations Manager,

28/06, letter from Cabot, they offer an amazing saving for me, whoopy doo
I only have to pay them 25%,plus they can be flexable on how to repay the ammount, some of their "customers" take up the offer and pay over 3 months, but most pay all in one go, really? i wouldn't have thought so reading this site.
if this isn't possable, it's not a problem as they can talk to me about a repayment plan, i don't think so sweety, if i havn't spoken to you, or replied to any of your letters, why would you think you can talk to me now?
Have they been taken over by MI5? only this is sent from XX Head of internal operations.

12/11,Letter from Cabot, they want me to close my account with them, by giving me the opportunity to to take them up on a great discount, 90% off when I pay my account,
They would like to discuss if this offer is affordable to me, so if I would call and tell them about my situation, they could make it more affordable to break the discounted offer in to monthly payments, once the final payment is made, they will send a letter to comfirm the account is closed and they will stop contacting me about this account.
If they are so eager for me to close the account, so they don't have to contact me again, they could just do it themselves,
this massive discount only furthers the Idea that they know it is a lemon,
I have noticed at the bottom it gives me a code to quote of SB11 and not a ref no.Do you think they know it's SB

they would like to help me, but, I need to contact them

By talking to them I can find out how their affordable playment plans work, they can also tell me if i'm eligable for a discount.
I have already made a start by reading this letter
Dear Debbie, thank you so much for the offer of help. but I have already know how repayment plans work, I have also found how to deal with this alledged account.
so I will continue with the plan I have had in place for almost 6 years,0 payments of £0.00, till you find the correct paperwork.
What was that I havn't told you it's SWID, wait a bit longer and I will.

also received an automated call at lunch time, they never say who they want to talk to so hang up.

02/01, called at 9 am eager little beavers arn't they
22/01 letter from Cabot, they understand it may be difficult to clear the acount in a short period of time, especially when there are other prioritys to take into consideration. yep my account with bargin booze
they waffle on about understanding debt and how they would like me to talk to them about how they could help to repay the account in the short term.
they own the account and are prepared to reduce the balance in order to help me become free of this debt sooner, subject to agreeing appropriate terms of repayment.
to take up their offer I am to call them and speak to someone asap.
If not I need to advise them of my proposal to clear the account.
a final parting message, This account may affect my credit rating and my ability to get credit in the future. Ask our team if the account is registered.

letter frm Cabot,We have not heard from you,
we have advised of several options that are available, all of which are in an attempt to help you be free of this debt,
you can pay on a monthly basis or make a proposal to clear the account at a reduced balance over several months.
if you start making payments towards the account then the balance will reduce.
If you clear the account then your file will be updated to show that no balance is outstanding. TALK TO US
signed by dishy debbie.

why would I want to pay now, I like the payments i am making,(zero) it is not on my credit file, nor are any of the others in this diary,

28/02 Cabot understand how difficult it is to clear an account in a short time, they propose to help clear it by accepting 25% BUT, I have to phone to discuss their offer,which also means I admit the debt and they can ask for more.
Now as tempting as that offer sounds, why would I want to pay an UE debt,
Sorry Ms Green offer declined

i have received a lovley glossy leaflet fromCabot, on the back it tells me that now is the time to take control.
Inside tells me the many ways they can help me, how they have a shiny new website.
If I register and activate the account online I can have £25 off the account
also their on line budget planning tool can help manage finances, who's ? just another name for I & E

11/05 email from Cabot, they have been trying to contact me,

it is a lovely colourful email, with pictures of bright open spaces, with click to link boxes, that can help me be free from debt, buy following their guru gide,
"The path to a debt free life", it offers me "easy to follow" links to budget, for a better life, live my dream, become as one with a Cabot repayment plan,

It seems dishy Debbie Green is't in on this one as it is under the watchful eye of, Nicola Millson, Senior Customer Operations Manager,

28/06, letter from Cabot, they offer an amazing saving for me, whoopy doo
I only have to pay them 25%,plus they can be flexable on how to repay the ammount, some of their "customers" take up the offer and pay over 3 months, but most pay all in one go, really? i wouldn't have thought so reading this site.
if this isn't possable, it's not a problem as they can talk to me about a repayment plan, i don't think so sweety, if i havn't spoken to you, or replied to any of your letters, why would you think you can talk to me now?
Have they been taken over by MI5? only this is sent from XX Head of internal operations.

12/11,Letter from Cabot, they want me to close my account with them, by giving me the opportunity to to take them up on a great discount, 90% off when I pay my account,
They would like to discuss if this offer is affordable to me, so if I would call and tell them about my situation, they could make it more affordable to break the discounted offer in to monthly payments, once the final payment is made, they will send a letter to comfirm the account is closed and they will stop contacting me about this account.
If they are so eager for me to close the account, so they don't have to contact me again, they could just do it themselves,
this massive discount only furthers the Idea that they know it is a lemon,
I have noticed at the bottom it gives me a code to quote of SB11 and not a ref no.Do you think they know it's SB

letter from cabot . They have passed the account to GLOBAL DEBT RECOVERY LIMITED. they have asked GDRltd to manage the account. they will help set up an affordable payment plan to enable you to become free of said account.
their welcome letter and contact details are on the reverse of Cabots passing the buck letter.

18/10 letter dated 18th received from GDR, they would like me to phone them so they can assist in the resolution of alledged account.
if no response in 14 days alledged account will be escalated to collections deptment.

collections should have it on Monday, watch this space.

you would think that cabot might have noticed that no contact has been made about this debt since 2015. SWID to ARC march 2015, no payments since 2013.
so will file and see what comes next.

[Still Waving]

They know it's been preying on your mind, and want to help relieve the stress.

[stuckinarut]

Ach must be sending out the begging letters for the Christmas party funds early this year. They will just have to make do, with a very small party as per

[Roger]

The SWID to Arc clearly means Seriously disputed IN LAW

I don't know what Cabot's is paying to their Agent GDR BUT this is clearly intended harassment isn't it!

I think CABOT need reporting here!! They are not asking they are pestering with intent to harass on what they know is a Legally disputed Debt as well as now being Statute Barred!

dear RW, my circumstances are as follows.
I am not allowed my own opinion on football, cannot dress myself with out my face coming into contact with the floor,door, bed, wall, as I dance around the bedroom with both legs down one trouser leg, often find I have my tshirt on inside out and back to front, normally after a few sherberts,
I am treated like a slave by my family, cooking, washing, cleaning, for up to half an hour a day at least,the rest of the day I am forced to go shopping, have a meal out, visit friends and relatives, natter with the people next door.
My life is appealing, sorry appalling, and now you come wading in with your bully boy tactics of being NICE, well thats it you've gone to far ,I am going to have to revert back to self medication, as the Dr has struck me off his list for free booze,
because of you Bargin booze are going to have a bumper year and I will be back on their staff party list for Christmas,
I hope your happy with yourselves
cheers
p.s. this account is in dispute as no CCA has been received, stop phoning as I wont answer, and my doorstep has been very naughty so is not allowed visitors for the foreseeable future. Ta Ta
SWID letter sent to RW

26/09, letter on Barclaycard headed paper with return address of Bellshill on envelope dated 19/09 they write to inform me that the account was assigned and transferred to MKPD LLP on the 10th Sept so they are now the effective owners,BUT they have appointed MK rapid recoveries as their servicing agents, so, all contact is to be made to MK RR lower down it says I should make payments to MKPD LLP
in the same envelope is a letter on MKPD headed paper telling me that they are the legal owner of the debt due,and how important it is I contact them( upon receipt of the letter) to discuss my options
I must ensure that all future correspondence and payments are sent to MKPD LLP at the address in Milton Keynes, so whats happened to MK RR? which I take it are Milton Keynes Rabid Recovery's

03/10.letter from MKRR dated 30th Sept, further to their recent communication regarding transfer of ownership they have not received my offer of payment.they want to help me and are in a position to help me clear the outstanding balance,BUT... they can only do this after speaking to me. they beg me to call them and discuss ways we can help.they only posted this one 4 days after the first so don't give much time to get back to them, do they?
until they reach an agreement to clear this balance they will continue to contact me by phone or letter so they advise that I contact them to resolve the matter, I take that as a threat of harassment!
06/10 SWID letter to MKRR.
22/10 letter from MKPD (15/10) account on hold while they liaise with the original creditor, they will get back to me. don't rush lad's
30/10 letter from MKPD (27/10) Final Response to my concerns.
They have raised my concerns with Barclays and they have confirmed that they do not have a record of an unresolved dispute on file as this was complied with when? I have only had a minute copy of some T&C that they say would of been in force when the account was opened, CSL never sent me a reply to my CCA request last year but they did cash the payment for it
they continue with what should be provided under S78 CCA ,A copy of the executed agreement (never received) any document referred to in it (er how would you know what was referred to in it, if you have never received it) and a statement of account which they say is; I owe £3,681.29 no breakdown of any payments made.

Due to the current status of my account the full outstanding balance is now due. We are currently unable to provide a copy of the credit agreement. We accept that we are therefore prevented from enforcing the agreement with you while this state of affairs continues.
Notwithstanding that we cannot currently enforce the agreement; our rights continue to exist under the agreement. you should therefore continue to pay the debt that has accrued on your account. We can and will continue to take any action short of enforcement reporting to CRA's and requesting payment from you,they refer to McGuffick v RBS (2009)
They say this completes their obligation under S 78 of the act and they request that I phone them to discuss my account
On this occasion they have been unable to uphold my claim but I do have the right to refer my concern to the FOS within 6 months

20/11 letter form Mkrr(13/11) we have still not received your offer of payment,coz i've not made one we can offer you an instalment arrangement to clear the outstanding balance, £0 a month is fine by me, we can only do this after speaking to you, won't get done then, Please call us to discuss ways we can help, stop asking for money and you won't be disappointed
if you don't contact us we may need to take further action to resolve this, have you read the last letter you sent me?

well since the last letter mkrr have tried to contact me by phone 6 times 3 times in one day on the 28/11 twice yesterday, not checked today's log yet,
now I know that they can make reasonable requests for payment as it is unenforceable till they find any paper work, but I stated quite clearly on the SWID letter i sent to them that I will not discuss any alleged accounts over the phone, all communication is to be in writing, any calls received will be logged by date and time and may be ,indeed in the past have been , used to make a formal complaint of harassment. I think 3 times in one day is harassment,
03/12/14 letter from MKRR dated 28/11/14 ,Please call us to avoid further action, further to our letter offering to help you clear this balance we have not received your offer of payment.not sent one Without your cooperation we cannot offer you any help to reduce this balance and may need to take further action which could involve litigation via the courts to recover this amount. This is something we wish to avoid so please contact us immediately so we can come to an agreement, I have a letter from MKPD that states that they cannot enforce the account as they cannot produce a copy of the agreement, mkrr have phoned 7 times in 3the last days
MKRR: must be a lonely office junior in charge as on checking our call log on the True call, they tried to call me 4 times on the 23rd and at 08,20 am on 24th (Christmas eve) maybe they were hoping to catch me before I sobered up, to get a Christmas tip off me.

JAN 2015
MKRR have sent 2 letters A FINAL WARNING and a we are sending it to KEYNES
MKDP have sent another letter saying they can't enforce as they cannot provide a copy of the agreement
Have started a separate thread here http://forums.all-about-debt.co.uk/showthread.php?16364-Barclaycard-MKRR-threatening-legal-action&p=467392#post467392.
Jan 17th, Notice of intended legal action from Keynes
Jan 19th Threat of Lit letter sent, added a few lines pointing out that;
They were assuming I had not been in contact with MKDP/MKRR, but that I had proof they had received my letters as I had the signature for them.
The last letter from MKRR had given me 7 days to reply but their letter was dated just 4 days later, so I was led to assume that they had no intention on giving me time to reply,
They stated that MKDP LLP had told them to start legal proceedings, yet if they had been in contact with MKDP, they would know that MKDP had themselves written to me twice saying the account was unenforceable as they could not produce a CCA
I enclosed copy of MKDP letter and asked them to confirm with their client that this was in fact the case
28th jan received reply to threat of lit,
They have reviewed the account and can confirm that "due to a clerical error the account was not updated to show as UNenforceable and therefore the letters were issued" I am to accept their sincere appologies for this error,
again they state they cannot supply a full copy of the credit agreement or enfoce the agreement, But I should still pay.


25/09 statement of account from MKDP 0 payments made.

26/09 letter from MKRR following our recent communication regarding transfer of ownership of your balance, we have not received your offer of payments,

08/12 reduced balance offer pay only33%, not good enough

12/12, we have recently received contact from you regarding another account we hold on our records Tesco and have noticed that we are also dealing with this account which doesn't appear to have an active repayment plan in place,nothing wrong with your eye sight please complete the enclosed I&E form and return it to us with your repayment proposal, if there isn't a repayment plan with the other account what makes you think I am going to set one up on this ?

21/06/17, letter from RW, dated 15th, they have been trying to contact me, no you haven't, they want to help me find a solution to clear this debt, that's nice. If i don't contact them they may :-

refer account to their clients solicitor and ask for the issuence of a CCC, which may result in a CCj being entered, that sounds painfull.plus NO CCA

send a report to CCA's, if less than 6 years from default date, missed that boat by a mile

try to contact you using any telphone numbrs w have on file, or, obtain from 3rd parties, try it and see what happens to the poor sod that i speak to

05/07/17 letter from RW. they tell me again how outstanding my account is, they also give me 3 options of how I could clear this account alas option 4 is not there; pay 0.00 and they will leave me alone. filed

16/08/17. letter dated 10th/08. they are offering a reduction of 69% and would like me to get in touch should I tell them there is no CCA and I have a letter telling me so? maybe next month

17/10 repeat letter of 16/08, same reply

2018

19/03 they need me to take action, will have to wait till i'm back

28/04 letter from RW telling me "it's important to arrange a repayment plan" I should get intouch today to agree my plan,If I don't contact them I risk further collection activity commencing on this account (alledged) and the debt will not reduce

21/05/18 letter from RW dated 16/05/18, PAY JUST 75% of YOUR OUTSTANDING BALANCE, to clear this account, why do they put it in LARGE letters I can't read it any louder?
this offer is available for only the next 30 days, so please contact us to comfirm beforemaking the payment. so we can ask for more and also see about a payment on any other accounts we might have of yours.
I could also agree to an affordable payment plan based on my curcumstances Call us, or, text call me to xxxxxxxx and we will call you back.don't think so mate
Don't worry if none of the options is the right one for you, we can work with you to find the right one for you. Why not open an online account, because you don't do cash back

21/09 ( dated 17/09/18)They need me to take action Again!! they want me to get intouch and tell them about my situation, They can then agree an affordable repayment plan with me,
the last line reads:_ wewd rather agree an affordable repayment plan with so, office junior?

24/09, letter dated 18/09/18 from Hoist Finance UK Holkdings 1 Ltd my account has been assigned to them from MKDP llP, which is interesting as RW letter of the 17th still says HPH2 have it, It was assigned to HPH2 from MKPD LLP a few years ago?
the assignment has taken place as part of a restructure of Hoist Finance group, so my account has been transferd from one part of the company to another.
so it is now in the hands of HFUKH1L,
But I can still carry on paying RW, or if not paying them, contact them to set up a repayment plan, their address is Quays Reach salford, which is also HFUKH1L address.

so in a nutshell MKDP assigned my account to HPH2, but somehow have now assigned it to the same company with a slightly different name who have said that RW will still service the account, but fail to mention that RW are part of the same company.

2019
12/06, letter from RW. every day we speak to and help people like you, you have never met me, nor spoken to me.I assure you I am not like other people
Now is the time for you to get in touch too. At the moment we can offer you a reduction on the amount you owe,
allegedly owe, at this one moment in time,
they actualy offer a 29% reduction for 30 days from the date of the letter, always a catch, you only have to visit the website to register/login for more information on how to take advantage of this reduction offer
If I am unable to pay this ammount in full, i am to visit the website anyway, as they MAY be able to agree monthly instalments, as an affordable way to pay off the balance
dear RW, many thanks for your recent missive offering such a pityful reduction on the balance of an Unenforceable and SB account.
Having thought it over for 2 seconds ,I, have decided not to take up your offer so will not be logging in to see the details of how to take up this untemping offer,
Nor will I be offering any monthly payments,
I would point out that I should of told you ages ago that it is SB, but not many people write to me now, so a letter from you is such a joy.
I look forward to the next one xxxx

Letter from Hoist.
do you need some help to manage your account? NO
Are you not sure how you want to repay your account, I am sure, I am not paying
speak to us you can explain your situation in detail OK, you asked

Once upon a time in a land of milk and honey,
the Bees stopped producing and the milk turned sour.
The kitchen maid in the big house had to give up work to look after family, she went from buying a whole chicken to just a chicken thigh, with bone for added flavor.
But the wicked elves that had let her have virtual money in the past were not willing to help her reduce the amount of real money they wanted in return.
one day she went off in search of some help, following the red haze she came across a strange man that told her about a magic paper, A CCA, he said, ask the elves for it, the maid did as asked, the elves were not happy, "How does a maid know of such things" they cried.
I know, said the big elf, lets send her some paper she won't know the difference, but when the maid showed the strange man what she had been given he laughed and laughed and opened up a portal to a magic world that held all kinds of people ready to help fight the naughty elves.
soon, with the help of some of those people, six, or more, years had passed , the maid had not paid the Elves and the maid now helped others with their problem.
The End. (of the story)

they would prefer to come to an arrangement to settle the debt and i am to call them immediately to discuss a repayment plan.
20/02 was going to send threat o gram template for last letter but forgot to post it (just found it in the car)
20/02, 2 letters received today both dated 15/02 from Tesco Collections, letter 1, wants me to contact them urgently to discuss my account.

04/05 letter from Morecomics [01/05] Tesco have told them that they completed an agreement request S78 on the 5th June 2012 and also on the 25th June 2012.
they also advise that the account is on a temporary hold to allow me time to receive this letter and contact them to discuss a payment arrangement I can afford and maintain, if contact is not made promptly, their follow up of the account will recommence. just to make clear. Tesco sent me a photo copy of the signed agreement and T&C dated 2012 but no original T&C and the covering letter said it was sent under the Data Protection Act 1998 , and when I sent the Missing PT letter they sent me the same 2 pages so how have they complied with my CCA request
UE CCA received letter sent to morcomics
17/05 letter from moronics(14/05) their clients believe that the documents sent do meet the requirements under s78 of the Consumer Credit Act.They go on to explain what may be omitted from the document and that there is no requirement to provide a signed 'Executed' copy of the agreement.

6/6 letter from Morecomics (3/6) as they have not received any communication from me with regards to my outstanding account, they feel that I may not be in a position to meet their request to clear the account in full.gosh they get have feelings
to prevent their recommendation to their client that further debt recovery action be considered they are prepared to accept payments of �120 a month,to take advantage of this offer I must,
contact them by phone err no
make payment by website erm No
send payment attached to letter and no again
if I do not reply I MAY leave them with no other option but to recommend to their client that they CONSIDER further debt recovery action against me
18/6 letter from Midas cs,(17/06) they are aware that i have not agreed a repayment for this debt with moronics. they are now reviewing the account prior to the possible recommending of further debt recovery action to their clients.Now are they talking about Tesco or morcomics being their client
they would remind me that unless we can agree a settlement of this account, the default which their client may have registered against my credit file will remain unchanged. are they using a default as a threat , cos the Tesco wouldn't remove it anyway To prevent possible further action I must contact Morecrap now.
04/07 letter from Morcronic (01.07) their records show I have not made any payments to them must have a newbie in accounts so my account has been passed to the next desk along Home collections Division, for action.So are they collecting home's now along with door steps? This may involve their local rep calling at my home in the near future,to establish how I intend to settle the balance outstanding.easy! you give me a valid CCA, I consider where we go from there

27/07 letter from morecrap We are agents of Tesco Bank, Their records show that the above account has an outstanding balance, They have therefore asked us to contact the account holder to discuss the account and we have been provided this address by a credit reference agency that supply us with addresses links based on the information they hold.Please contact us to confirm the position and so that we can make the appropriate arrangements.
However if you believe that you are not the person responsible for the account, it is important you contact us immediately, either by telephone or letter. they told me that they were agents back in March, they have also told me how outstanding my balance is, but never sent me an award for it,and why have they found my address through a CRA when they have been writing to me and I have been replying? errr what position do I need to confirm ? If i write and tell them I'm deceased will they make funeral arrangements?

05/08 letter to morecrap pointing them back to my letter sent in may also asking what position I am to confirm,and why do they need to look me up when they have been sending letters containing confidential details since march, so it is a little late to find out if the correct person lives at this address .

I am to contact them in the next 7 days, or send my payment proposal before 17th Aug, to prevent possible further debt recovery action, If i don't they may have no alternative than to recommend to their client that they consider possible further debt recovery action against me, they may be able to offer a substantial discount from the outstanding balance, Oh dear me, the newbie has done it again and sent me letters from the past.

Complete the attached I & E form and return it to them
Call them on xxxxxxx if I need any help to complete the form, or to discuss the most suitable solution to manage my account.

I don't have any income, It's all hubbys so another NO,

I don't need help filling in the I & E with zero's so won't be calling them
the most suitable solution to manage the alledged account is to continue to ignore all letters til they realise it's SB.

have today received letter from RW asking how they can make this work?? they can help-but need to hear from me, their team can set up a payment plan designed to help manage the account, BUT, they need to get in touch to make sure it is affordable to personal circumstances,
so they need to register the account on line. or want someone to give them a ring.

Dear RW,
I have decided my own repayment plan,it is the one I have been on since March 2012,
I worked out how much I wanted to pay, found it was affordable and have stuck to it through thick and thin,
I do not need to contact anyone,
I find I can still manage things by myself, even though I am now getting on in years, so I will not be troubling your *specially* trained team.
I suggest the way forward is to;-
Check the default date 2003,
check last payment date 2012,
check how much it is costing you to keep sending out letters
Think is it worth it, she never replies

09/2020
letter from RW, Flexable solutions for challenging times,
They understand all too well how the current situation makes it difficult to plan too far into the future,
me thinks they are having a cash flow problem
they ask me to set up an online payment plan, i can make use of their income and expeniture tool and their portal will never let me set up a plan i cannot afford.
Now i was tempted to do this as.
1, I have no income, it's all hubbys till I get my pension in 2 years,
2, I was interested to see how the "portal" would cope with all the zero's
I refrained from temptation.
they now have a "friendly" chat bot called KAI, as that is my name in Spanish I would be talking to myself, I already do that.
back to the filing cabinet.

Feb 2021
letter from Hoist Finance, have they sacked RW?
they say they recently contacted me, 5 months ago, telling me of the flexible ways to pay my account.
If I were to set up a payment plan, they MAY be able to pay some of the balance for me, to see if I am eligible for a " You pay, We pay" plan i am to log on to their web site.
I much prefer a "No pay, Go away" plan
