Mackenzie Hall. Do any of you know of them?

Thanks both of you. I'll ignore and see if they stop chasing. Assuming if they bother to keep chasing £38 it's a genuine debt and will contact Northumbrian Water directly. -

Forgot to say that they say payment must be lodged at their office by Thursday 22nd Feb (despite the letter being dated the 15th and sent over a weekend) -

I recieved first contact from them this morning, by letter rather than card, although my case is slightly different from most mentioned here in two ways. It may be a valid debt that I owe. and It's for £38 not hundreds or thousands. They claim that "despite repeated requests for payment" etc - this is in fact the first i've heard from them. Here's the rub - the charge is for a water company that I used to have an account with, and so it's possible, - not likely but possbile - that the charge is valid, and if so was only 2003, so wouldn't be statuted I'm tempted to simply pay it as the balance is less than £40, but having read about them on here I don't want to encourage them, if they are fishing. In fact I'd rather feel guilty for not paying something I owe, if it means they leave me alone in future. I have visions of them rubbing their hands and saying, "We asked him for £40, he gave us £40. and we know where he lives. Let's ask him for a £100, and see what happens" If I simply lay low, do you think they'll pursue it. Ultimately I reckon not, as the balance is so low that surely it would not be cost effective for them. However, I can't afford to clear it until next month, and certainly can't afford court charges over and above the balance. What should I do. PS. I HAVEN'T RESPONDED TO THEM IN ANY WAY AS YET
