I will write to Nationwide and see what they say - What should I be asking?

 

Post #17...even consider asking for a bigger discount as you are cutting the middle man and they wont have to pay them commission.

We could do with some help from you.

Hi again - I finally got registered on Noddle (had some issues with some of the info to verify) and can now see the details of this debt (way clearer than clearscore!)

 

It turns out this Nationwide debt IS in default and here is what it says on Noddle:

 

Account start date

10/07/2012

 

Repayment frequency

Monthly

 

Date of default

15/10/2014

 

Default balance

£ 1,945

 

So what does this mean for my situation with the offer? Since the default was 2.5 years ago should I be asking for a bigger discount than 50%? Or just ignore it altogether and try to make it to the 6 year mark so it is SB?

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

You get ALL details of your account. It could be substantially large so be prepared to spend time going through it. Youre looking for the reason They sold the debt on, and why theyre offering a massive settlement figure.

 

I dont think arc buy debts either, so if thats true, you can ignore them completely. Theyre just trying to spoof you into payign them money. If they dont buy debts then they wont have a right to offer a settlement figure, then say " if you pay we'll negotiate for you" or similar.

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..

Okay great thanks

- will see what I get back.

 

 

In looking through the Noddle report I can see that I actually have several other accounts that I thought were past the 6 year from default stage, but turns out the default date in some cases was a couple of years later.

So they are not SB.

 

 

Should I write to all of them with the SAR to see where I stand?

Can you list the debts and who noddle says the owner is with. Dates too if possible. Youll be better off starting a new thread for those though, so it doesnt get muddled up with your current issues.

first 3, CCA to all. Last one, is that Credit card, or overdraft? Hoist sometimes put the wrong account type on it

those that are close to defaults 6th year where the debt drops off your file

Yes thats my concern too, as I haven't had communication from some of them for years.... The only one actively pursuing me is the ARC one which I will be following up on... I am learning a lot frm this Noddle account though so that was a great tip!
