    Angry Barclaycard refused my reduced offer of payment!

    Even though my other creditors who I owe far more money too have accepted a reduced offer of payment, Barcalycard have refused and are threatning debt collectorsicon! I have sent them an expenditure form along with proof of earnings yet they want me to make a higher offer? How can I? I cannot print the money myself!!! Any advice guys???? Even if they take me to court they would have to send me to prison becaue i cannot just STUMBLE across more moeny to give them! The offer was pro rata and fair to all my creditors. Please help?

    they have no right to your financial details anyhow, only a court can demand that.

    write to them and TELL them they will only be getting £XX for XX mts.
    & if they will please freeze int & chagres to help during your time off need. but you MUST pay it as advised, p'haps by internet banking, that way they cannot refuse it.

    just ignore whatever they say or write back.

    they are just chancing their arm.

    if and a big IF it ever got to court the judge would laugh it out the door & prob assign a smaller payment.

    Hi Jojo,

    BC are famous for being unhelpful when customers are experiencing difficulties.

    See Letter A to F here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...templates.html Use one of these and send to BC.

    Also, send them a CCA request as a separate letter enclosing the £1 fee. The 2 letters can go in the same envelope. Send by RM Special Delivery.

    They won't send a proper credit agreement (they'll only send you T&C's for the a/c). You can then place the a/c In Dispute after the set time.

    If they still refuse to accept reduced payments, you can refuse to pay anything until they DO supply the agreement.

    A word of warning - if you have a Barclaysicon Bank a/c, open a new a/c elsewhere as BC will raid the bank a/c using the "Right to Set-Off".

    I managed to get reduced repayments (although it had to be over 1% of the outstanding debt) and they agreed to a lower interesticon rate and no charges.

    I wrote to the CEO of Barclaysicon and complained direct, it may help and is worth a punt:-

    John Varley
    Group Chief Executive

    Barclays Bank PLC t/a Barclaycard
