Yes, same with me! Not heard anything, for quite a while. I'll keep you posted if I do, and please if you do!

I really appreciate all the trouble you're going to & please keep us up to date, all the civil recovery companies are crooks & I do feel for anyone going through what we are. I'll keep you up to date with all my threatening letters I get.

Hi Moviemakernow, I read with great interest all your finding out about Civil Recovery Ltd. I too am in the same situation as your wife - Tescos. I'm at the stage where they've sent a second demand letter asking for the full amount now. I am just ignoring them. I had the police called & the policeman knew it was a genuine mistake & he rang me later in the day after he spoke to his sergeant to say the matter is dropped, no further action. I feel it's so unfair of civil recovery to make such demands, like I have read previously, anyone can make a demand & say pay me £99.00 or £70.00 now if you pay in 21 days. I don't know what the next stage will be from Civil Recovery but in my opinion they can jog on.... they're worse than thieves!!

I agree, if I totally ignore them, will they just forget it?

Has anyone found out anymore info on the Civil Recovery Ltd outfit? Is it a legit company?

I'm not sure what you're on about, sorry

Thanks labrat. I'm quite worried at the moment on knowing what to do. I'm scared if I don't pay within the 21 day period, then costs will go up and keep going up. Has anyone heard of a recovery company just leaving it if someone doesn't pay??

Thank you both, I appreciate everything you're doing. I will look into things, and I look forward to hearing any future developments.

What would you advise Martin?

Thank you very much for your help, I shall read everthing I can, as I have been since this unfortunate event. I have a feeling it's actually the security team, their employers who has sent my letter. Anyway I appreciate all your time & effort. P.S Where abouts are you ScarletPimpernel?

Are these all above board, proper companies, so would you advise payment being the best idea?

Martin3030 can you advise me what you have found please? Sorry don't understand all the licence bit, thanks.

Thanks for your reply & taking time out to look at my problem. I've not got the envelope but I'm sure it was a stamp. I haven't got a scanner so I'm sorry I can't show you the letter, it seems to me that companies or just anyone are jumping on the bandwagon & thinking lets start our own civil recovery company, before we know it the UK will have thousands of them!!

Ok will do, thanks. I honestly don't know what to do, if I don't respond to civil recovery in the 21 day period obviously the amount goes up, and does the amount keep going up if I choose to ignore them? Like I previously said the police weren't taking it any further, so eventually if I went to court (if civil recovery takes me to court) surely the police dismissed it, would the court??

Thanks for all your help, there is another address at the bottom of the letter - Civil Recovery Ltd, Leytonstone House, Leytonstone, London. E11 1GA From all your searching, is this a proper licensed company? Many Thanks
