Brilliant....send this with the other stuff to the OFT. The only way that a court might enforce is if you had committed fraud such as staging your own death or changing your name by deed poll. No need to reply just send their misleading emails to the OFT and i'll leave this thread here for you just incase they are foolish enough to take the case to court your defence is here - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?162456 - just keep us posted.

Try to stop worrying Reading your original post you're very doubtful about the existence of this alleged debt anyway so if because of the pressure put on you you've fallen foul of a fishing exercise whereby they wanted someone with the same name as you there wont be all the correct paperwork anyway but we'll get to that later As Cabot are the ones doing the chasing they get the CCA request and if the either try to fob you by telling you to contact jacomo or because they have to get in touch with them so it will take longer than 12+2 it doesn't matter as the request still stands There's letters on here to cover the enventualitie

Contact the Ford garage you took it to and ask them if they will put their opinions in writing. As far as court is concernerd, the judge's decission would be based on the fact that the car was fine prior to the service and not afterwards.

As Above, stay off the phone to them, when and if you receive anything, send in a CCA request including the £1 postal order. When the vile creature said she had your signature in front of her is total BS, to be honest DCA's mainly don't even have a date of birth, I know this because I have rang them in the past and given a totally false one which they accepted! (Notice to anyone reading this, I do not advise anyone to speak to a DCA ever, but I just can't help myself as I love to wind them up). Immediate payment demands on the 25th of the month right before commission cut off! Once you send the CCA request, if you receive any
