red say they have taken over the vodafone account so i think its red whos after the money hamptons legal and red are the same i believe

Thanks for the advice so if i do owe them any money do i pay them or are they just [problem] people like others have said on here?

Hi there sorry some info on this post First of all got a letter from red debt collections saying my account had been passed onto them owing £268.52 ........ from vodafone as i remember i cancelled my account with vodafone back in 2007 so i did nothing ......next i got a letter from red saying they were getting hamptons to use court action to recover the money i owed so then a few days later got letter from Hamptons legal saying to avoid legal action against you if i did not contact them within 10 days ......... i could pay half what they say i owed or £40.00 a month .....i yet again ignored it as the phone number was a 0845 so did not call them as i had read on here not to contact them .......... A week later i get another letter from red debt collection saying they were going to send a baliff round to collect the owing money. that is when i had had enough and sent them a cca with a £1.00 postal order that was over a month ago . then today i get the letter from red what i first posted ....... so what should i do next please???????
