An update. Received third letter from DWF. It's a very scary letter. It says 'Should payment not be made during the course of the next 7 days we will consider commencing Court Proceedings to recover the sum outstanding'. Also says 'If you do not pay

- The sum outstanding may increase due to Court costs, fees and interest

- A County Court Judgement may be entered against you

- Your Credit rating may be affected for up to 6 years

- A Bailiff may attend your house to remove goods to the value owed

- We may seek a Court order deducting monies from your earnings with your employer

We await your payment or response during he course of the next 7 days'

Please advise what I should do?

Hello there.

I know it sounds scary and that is what they want. But it says they may do a lot of things, not that they will.

Have you read other threads here about DWF?

Says WE WILL consider commencing Court Proceedings to recover the sum outstanding. The bailiff bit is the most disturbing.

I understand how you feel, but they aren't saying that they will do anything. They're saying they will consider court not that they will do it. This is how RLP companies write.

As I said, if you read other threads you'll see how they operate.

read it properly

!!

can you scan it up to PDF please

and the others too

we'd love to have copies

Nowhere in that letter doe sit say they will. They cannot put that because it isnt true. They have no authority to decide that. Only the retailer does. And after what happened a few years ago, theres no chance theyd go anywhere near a court.

Even habitual shoplifters laugh when theyre told to pay as they know DWF and RLP are absolutely toothless and cannot do anything.

load of ole baloney...

and it cant say WE WILL

they [DWP] cant do court

they are not the owners of the tescos

none have done court for +5yrs now

and as with the bailiff guff

read the letter PROPERLY AGAIN

bailiffs can only ever get involved AFTER something has been to court

and as tescos aint going nowhere near a courtroom door [they never have]

IGNORE.

they will CONSIDER doing something eh? I will consider going to the moon for my holidays but by the time I have done just that will I actually be going to the moon? One thing is for certain, I am going on holiday and it isnt to the moon

And I will consider showing my backside in Debenhams window. Doesn't mean I will do so.

DWF cannot do anything more than recommend that their client takes Court action. Their client, unfortunately for them, does not take Court action in such circumstances

Me flashing my arse in a department store window is far, far more likely!

RLP learned that doing court is devastating to their business model, as in they lost, in the Oxford Case.

Thank you all. I am just going to ignore this. They really know how to give people the shivers!

dx100uk, trying to find out how to upload the letters from DWF. Is there a specific way to do it

click upload

Sorry for being a pain but this is what I get:

- In your Thread/Post open a new msg box here.

- Click 'Go Advanced' below the msg box.

- Click 'Manage Attachments' below that box.

- Click the 'Add Files' button on the top right.

- Click 'Select Files', navigate to your file(s) on your PC.

- Click 'Upload Files'.

For some reason I am unable to see the 'Go Advanced' .

in the grey tool bar at the bottom

right of the post quick reply button

Something seems to be going wrong. I have taken pictures of the letters and when I upload them, it shows upload error 'Please do not'.

Sorry just doesn't seem to work.

Finally uploaded in a weird way. pasted the pics on word document and converted to pdf. These are the 3 letters I have received within 3 weeks.

attach them then..

I have a better idea - Download officelens... Line it up in the square and then you can save as PDF

Thought it was done. Will try again.

Finally uploaded. Here are the links to the 4 documents (3 letters and FAQ sheet attached with Letter 1):

example letters.pdf

I have merged the letters to one file.

all are very safe to totally ignore.

Thank you. Wonder what the next letter will say?

Thank you. Wonder what the next letter will say?

More of the same, but possibly written to sound more scary. It still doesn't mean they can do anything.

*WE WILL CONSIDER USING COURT**

I will consider whether I will go to work today... If i actually do or not is another thing

Thank you. Wonder what the next letter will say?

It will probably say:-

We are aware that you have sought help from an internet forum full of armchair lawyers and layabouts with no jobs to go to.

Wouldn't be the first time!
