  1. Yes, he did. The only thing they want is photo ID and would not advise him directly if they would accept something else! They just can't be bothered! I have advised him to go to Citizens Advice Bureau but I am pretty sure they will send him back in to the vicious circle! What I will try and do now, is call DVLA myself as I hold a driving licence and can not believe there is nothing else they can do!!!
  2. Thank you Diamondgirl, will be sending the letter next week!
  3. After searching the website a bit - realised CCA doesn't apply in this case and if I wanted to fight this I need to send SAR? Or is it best just to ignore if I believe it is not my debt? What can they do? I think I might have to start a new post in Telecoms...
  4. Hi all, this is an unusual request but I beg you to read...please Posting on behalf of my relative who is a UK Resident (for 11 years - has Home Office Letter confirming this) but doesn't hold a British Passport or a passport from the country of origin. In fact has no form of photo ID due to no fault of his own! What are the non standard ways of getting a provisional DL from DVLA? Applied to DVLA for Provisional on numerous occasions, every time has been promised to be given one but they wanted more information. He sent the application back and forth several times with extra information but they have finally wrote with a refusal and asked for standard ID again. He has: Original Birth Certificate, Home Office Letter granting residency, numerous proofs of address, his name is on his children's birth certificates, his parents and siblings are full UK residents and hold passports, a civil servant who is his friend signed a photo of him, confirming he is who he is, he also has a white passport (with photo)from the embassy of the country of origin granting him leave to go to his country of origin, but DVLA would not accept!!! Only want standard photo ID!! The person concerned has been living in the UK since he was 12yo hence he had never received a passport in his country of origin. He is now 23 and still can not get a passport from his country of origin until he is 26yo due to the stupidest laws ever! He can not get his UK Residency Permit with a photo because it is supposed to be stamped in your passport. He is entitled to a British Passport but can't get one without submitting photo ID. It seems he can't get a form of photo ID without photo ID - how stupid is that! He is in a vicious circle! He is desperate for a driving licence for his job, he has been struggling to provide for his children due to this stupid cycle! His relationship is strained, he needs a break!!! Any help would be appreciated even though I appreciate this might not be as relevant of an issue to this forum! Thank you all in advance Concerned & Loving Relative
  5. To question Vodafone account (now with Lowell) - Do I need to send a CCA request or SAR and should it go to Lowell or OC? Thank you?
  6. Wow, just found my old thread (this one) and since not being here for a while I forgot about it. An Update long overdue: Barclays sent letter saying the case was on hold due to Ofcom making their decisions. Just out of interest, is it still worth pursuing this matter? It has been a while since my last contact with them (June 2007) Thank you all
  7. Hello, I am a huge fan of this site and have been following it since 2007. Would be great to know if there are any other CAGs that want to meet up in Southend-on-Sea for some sun, sea and skill swapping on how to fight the system. I am a newbie to posting as only recently come across my first chance to fight and now need your help! All the best to everyone!
  8. Thank you. I will get on the case now at my current address. If I wanted to send a SAR request to those companies and to N Hunter, will I have to wait until I get my proof of address sorted? I didn't really want to register my address or have bills at his dad's as I knew it was only temporary. And what to do with those letters? Should I just ignore them for now or should I give them my current address and send them a CCA request letter. One of them is for Vodafone (who sold it to Lovell Group) and the other Virgin Media - haven't got a clue how they ended up on my name!!!
  9. Thank you for your reply Hazzinho, happy about the address not being marked for their sake! I am not on electoral, no bills of any kind, no credit cards - I really mean nothing!!! I can't have a utility bill on someone else's address and I don't really want to ask, and I can't get any form of credit or even a mobile phone when tried, hence I strongly think it was identity fraud going back 4 or so years back which left my credit file in tatters! I really need to sort this out! I have: Passport, Provisional Driving Licence with the address on it but they won't accept it. I could order a bank statement. But really need just one other form of proof of address and can't think of any that doesn't require credit check.
  10. I would also be interested to hear about this as have similar issues...(although had identity fraud and being chased for something that is not mine)
  11. Hello everyone! I believe I might have been a victim of identity fraud (going back 4 years or so back) and have requested credit reports from Experian, Equifax, CallCredit and annualcreditreport.co.uk back in January. I haven't received any!!! Their Response - they could not connect me to the address and requested I provide proof of Identity (passport which is ok) and 2 forms of bills. Now, I lived with my boyfriend at his dad's address temporarily and have no bills whatsoever. My bank statements go through to my e-mail, never through post. I have spoken to them on the phone and it seems I am stuck as they refuse to give me my credit report without something confirming my address. Any ideas? I really need these reports. Another issue that has arisen from this request - I have received chasing letters from companies I don't remember dealing with. I have received an Assignment of Debt notice to Lovell Group who are notorious for chasing debts that don't exist! What to do??? Now, the main problem is - my boyfriends Dad is angry with me about this letters and want them to stop immediately as he is trying to remortgage the house and doesn't want any marks on his place. Me and my BF do not live with him since Nov 09 and I have no idea how to stop them without getting myself in to something that got nothing to do with me!!! Please help! I have read hundreds of posts and a bit overwhelmed with all the information and totally confused now. Thank you all in advance... Desperado
  12. Thanks for the reminder Saintly, I honestly almost forgot about that. doh Recorded delivery...recorded delivery...recorded delivery.... I think that should do, will be dreaming about it tonight! lol
  13. Hello everyone! Well, today I saw a big fat envelope coming through the door and I started grinning I just knew it, my long awated statement has arrived!!! By the way, they didn't cash my cheque and neither did they return it I calculated the charges and surprisingly It was less than I expected but £1325 is great nevertheless...with interest it would be £1,711.52. I have printed out a preliminary letter and Schedule of Charges (without interest for now) and will send it off to One Churchill Place tomorrow. Giving them 14 days to pay up. Good luck to everyone!
  14. Hi Cazkatjoe, Thank you for your advice. I will do seperate cheques, I do hope they will return them though I am going to the post office now, Barclays...here I come!!!!
  15. Hi everyone... Right, I am ready to send the Subject Access Request letter but am already stuck and have a question. I have more than one account, 1 account with Barclays and 2 with Woolwich mortgage. Do I send 3 £10 cheques or just one for all 3 accounts as it seems like they are at the same address at 1 Churchill Road, London. Any urgent help would be great!!! Thank you all....
