Hi Can some kind soul point me in the right direction? My credit card debt has been passed to Mercers. I have spoken twice to them on the phone (never again!). We agreed a mutual sum each month to pay this debt off. Unfortunately, they requested my bank details for a DD. I refused so it became stalemate. I wrote to them to ask for their details so that I could set up a s/o. I didn't realise at the time I could do it without their permission. Before I heard from them I gained more knowledge from you guys so I went ahead and set up a s/o. They've now replied to my letter saying that I need to pay £x amount to bring my outstanding balance up to date. My s/o payment doesn't start until next week so how should I reply to their letter? Kind regards......
