Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I wrote to Barclaycard in the beginning of September 08 requesting a copy of a signed credit agreement.
I continued with my payments for the 12 + 30 days and, when there was no reply I missed a payment.
i then started getting these phone calls from Barclaycard where the staff were shouting at me down the phone and hanging up on me and all sorts. So I stopped my payments as they had not produced what I had asked for.
Now, Mercers Debt collections are phoning me about 4 times a day and sending texts to my mobile.
Barclaycard has since then, sent me a copy of their Terms & Conditions in February with a letter saying they are responding to my request. I wrote back and said that was not what I had asked for and last week I got a copy of a Credit Agreement, although it was not mine, it was just a print out of A credit agreement without a signature.
Now, yesterday, I got a letter from Mercers saying they were going to start legal proceedings against me. I have read a few posts on here and understand the account is now unenforceable unless Barclaycard takes court action. Is that what the legal proceedings are??
