Hi All,

 

I have an old debt with natwest.

Natwest closed my credit card account in 2013,

 

I can not keep with the payment because I lost my job and I informed them,

I have heard nothing from them since 2014

not until recently when Cabot start chasing me for that debt.

 

I called natwest and I was told that that debt has been sold to Cabot and that I should contact Cabot instead.

 

Can anyone advise on how to navigate this.

 

Thanks in advance

Ignore Cabot until you get something which looks like a Letter Before Claim and then start the process of making a CCA request

 

When was the last payment to the account and when was the card taken out?

Any advice given is done so on the assumption that recipients will also take professional advice where appropriate.

no they've been putting monthly markers on

NatWest registered the default when they sold the debt.

 

cabot cant harm your file further.

 

now why would a large multinational bank sell a debt on when they could have crushed you in court?

 

find out why

what I mean is for how long did you have payment issues?

every month you had trouble and were still behind I bet they added penalty fees like £20, £12 etc

I missed the payment 3 months in a row,

that was what prompted them to closed the account

 

 

they were asking me for full payment and I didn't and that was how I accumulated those late and missed payment

charges of £148

If cabot have the debt then its 99% likely unenforceable. They rarely collect enforceable debts

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

Hi all,

 

I need your advice.

NatWest closed my accounts in 2013.

 

Because of this,

There has been default on my credit file since then.

 

Now Cabot are chasing me for that debt, it must have been sold to them.

 

Can you please advise on how to approach this issue.

 

Thanks in advance

Accounts ?

 

Overdrawn current account ? If so, how much approx ?

 

Credit card ? If so, how much approx ?

 

Other type of account/loan ?

 

Do you have copies of statements showing how the debt was built up ? If not, ask Natwest for copies of statements, submitting a Data Protection Subject Access Requesf to them if necessary. Then you can see how much of the debt is just charges/fees applied.

 

If there is a debt unpaid since 2013, there is probably a reason you have not been taken to court.

 

Have you moved address since 2013 ?

 

If Cabot have bought the rights to this debt, they can take you to court to enforce the debt. How many letters have you received from Cabot ?

 

Is it just the same debt as your other posts. Credit card debt ?

CCA cabot. If cabot have the debt, then its unenforceable. They dont chase valid debts. Theyre bottom feeders and prefer to get the debts they bought for 10p in the £ and have a high potential value.

Any advice i give is my own and is based solely on personal experience. If in any doubt about a situation , please contact a certified legal representative or debt counsellor..

now go back and re read the thread from post 1 again

and follow the advise already given.

 

did you formerly in writing tell NatWest that you have moved?

and they know your new address?

 

or are cabot simply sending phishing letters to your new address without you informing anyone?

I have contacted NatWest before regarding this issue, there is no ppi on the accounts.

The credit limit on the Visa card was £1400

 

charges of £148 and credit limit on master card was £700 and charges of £72.

 

I have updated my address with Natwest.

they called and told me that they have sold the debt to cabot.

.

What step shall I take now?

If possible I do not want to pay Cabot a dime.

 

Thanks once again

There is nothing for you too do, IGNORE cabrot.

 

Don't even send a CCA request JUST YET, keep that for a later date.

 

And NEVER discuss this over the phone, EVER!

 

Keep a diary of events.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!
