Default Buchanan clark+wells "invoice or credit agreement"

I have had 2 letters from Buchanan clark+wells. After I made a CCa request

Letter one Dated 04 April 2007

We do not hold copy credit agreements at this office as we are not the creditor.Your postal order is returned.

I have placed this account on hold and have asked my client to forward the documents to you directly.

They then say should I require further assistance to phone 08717001551.
It is signed by someone from Administration department.

Letter two Dated 05 April 2007

PURSUER:THAMES CREDIT
PRINCIPAL SUM: £1940.55

Says basically the same bar the refund of the postal order. Heres a funny thing it refers to the credit agreement as an invoice.

The second letter wasn't signed.

I have never heard of Thames credit

Is an invioce the same as a credit agreement I wouldn't have thought so.

The CCA request arrived at BCW , George Square Glasgow on 04 April 2007 so they were quick enough to get a letter out to me.

But I am still waiting for the credit agreement.

When the law is calculating working days does it class saturday as a working day. If it does then BCW are close to defaulting on the CCA request.

How do you think I should proceed.Next steps ect. Oh and how can someone take me to court for a debt if they are not the owner of that debt.

Do nothing..12 working days (not saturdays) + 2 for postage and they are in default and can't pursue the debt without a legal CA and a court order. 30 calender days from that and they commit a criminal offence by pursuing the debt in any form.

Saturday is not clased as a working day. You are correct in thinking that only the owner of the debt can take you to court. When they default and later commit a criminal act you may wish to inform them that the potential fine for this is £2.5K (more than your debt) and that if they do not resolve the matter to your satisfaction you will report them for prosecution (you have 6 months from the offence to do this).

Agree with tomterm. Fot the princely sum of £1 it takes away any possible wriggling room.
