Unpleasnt and Murky are gross understatments. If it was 1999 and you have not agreed or acknowledged it its Statute Barred. END OF

Its what we have on the bottom of our shoes Our Soles;)

:grin: I wonder why there is such a high demand:rolleyes: Oh dear they will be 35 days into committing a criminal offence when they eventuallly get it. I wonder if they know any GOOD solicitors:grin: :grin:

Well if working for them would be a step up you must have a really crap job. A sewer cleaner would be a step up

Oh dear the unAUTHORISED collector still hasnt called. His tea is getting cold.

95% of what these people do is in breach of the guidance

They may well try to bluff you with a copy of an application form but this isnt the same as an executed agreement. Most likely they will return it to Cap 1.

You mean different ways of bullying, threatening and harassing.:grin:

If you can afford it go directly to Golds Gym, pay the money you owe them. Get a receipt for it and let CRS go whistle.

This just gets better by the day

Its a pity its not your own debt because it would be nice to let Hamptons take you to Court and produce the letter from their clients stating the matter was now closed. Im sure M'learned friends would take a dim view of this. They would look quite foolish in court. Arent Hamptons part of the Lowell group.

I think their bluff has been called. Even if you do owe them 150 for gym fees. There does not appear to be any way in this world they can justify their charges.

The letter from Robinso Way is a standard one. The number of times I have waited in for their doorstep callers is incredible. Remeber doorstep callers have absolutely no legal powers. Tell them to leave your property. If they fail to do so the local boys in blue will assist

I too would like to see some of these bully-boys being brought through the courts for their illegal harrasmet and threatening phone calls. Whilst they are sitting in their nice fancy call centres earning commission for every penny they can force out of some debtor by whatever mean I actually wonder how many of them will ever bein the position of being in debt through no fault of their own. None of us on here wants to be in debt and we all have different reasons for being so but they show absolutely no consideration or willingness to sort it out. They write lovely letters like telephone our highly trained and sympathetic staff and we can work together to sort this matter out. Wonder who trained some of the ones that have phoned me.

Im with you now. However if she wrote 'I do not acknowledge this debt or any other to your company. Any payments or communications I may or may not have had with your client are more than six years ago.' Would this work The reason I ask I have a number of debts which I believe are over six yrs now or withinn a few months of being so. Would I be better SAR ing them all to find out the dates or sit tight for the momemnt

Excellent. And on Comic Relief Day too. I know you want it over but we are enjoying it. Egg on faces all round Keep it up

Robinson Way - Where have we Gone Wrong Anyone got a week to spare and lots of paper. Seems they havent got the important bit of paper:D

Getting witheld caller bar was the best thing I ever did. Now they have to display a number and thanks to the many good folk on here we now know most of their ex dir numbers so can ignore them. Choose to refuse is another option. After all its not them who pay my phone bill so I can decide who to answer

Surely if you contacted all these 'people' and claimed the account was staute barred it would be up to them to prove you have made a payment or acknowledgement of the debt within the last 6 yrs. In that way they would do the running and you would have your proof from them then if they kept on at you you could go straight for the jugular

These letters seem to come out in spates. Weeks on end nowt and then next thing a rash of letters and phone calls. Are they stupid have they not got the message yet.

Oh dear they have really dropped themselves in deep doo doo. They admit chasing you for a debt they cannot prove. Two words spring to mind

I think you have them by the Bol****ks but someone on here will help you sort them. 215 calls my god harassment or what. A definate report to the law society is called

You may want to visit their website. It gives a good impression of the type of firm they are HL Legal

What Court costs are they raving on about. I think they should be reported to the law society

It would be interesting where the believe they get the legal authority to enter you property without some authorisation from the courts. Must be some new law. I would like to see how quickly they would leave my door if they tried to enter illeagally. I believe its called burglary and is and arrestable offence.
