Thanks for the quick reply He is positive he has never signed up to anything on sky such as Red Hot TV as it was his Dad's sky box. He's never received anything through the post either. I would have thought that if it was tv then if the card was declined then they wouldn't have showed anything so nothing would be owed??? Or am I just naive? I reckon it could be someone signing up as him as his friends back then were a nightmare. Surely that sort of thing happens a lot with young lads, you'd think they'd not be bothered pursuing £11.98! Have you ever emailed Wescot instead of writing to them?

Hi all, was wondering if I could get a little advice? My other half received a letter asking for £11.98 on behalf of "Red Hot". Well I reckon we can all guess what sort of thing that's about!!! Anyway he is sure he's never signed up to anything like that. I send out a letter recorded delivery saying prove it and we receive a final notice saying it must be payed before 9th Feb or blah blah blah. He's moved house since then so we only got that letter yesterday after it was redirected to his parents new address (he now lives with me)! We also got a letter saying they can confirm he subscribed on the 6th of Aug 2006 and that his card details were declined. If we want further info on T's and C's he should refer to documents issued on subscription. He swears he has never received any subscription documents ever from anyone. I have drafted another letter basically saying stop hassling us as the debt is in dispute and that we want all original documents of the said subscription and that it was a legal obligation from "Red Hot" to tell him the debt was sold to Wescot. He is now worried they will put a black mark on his credit report if he doesn't pay it. Should he just pay as it's only £12 or should I send the letter???? He is adament he has never subscribed to them at all. I'm worried that all this recorded delivery will amount to £12 soon!!! And if he does pay it, will they have his account details and take more money out? He tried to pay online last night but the page conveniently doesn't exist and we're worried if we pay be phone we won't have a receipt of payment. Other people have said that they rarely proceed for money under £100 so wasn't expecting a letter back after the prove it one. Will it harm his credit rating if they do pursue? It's really stressing him out... please help!!!
