Hello everyone, First of all, sorry if I ask something here that has been asked hundreds of times. I know what that's like. I'm looking for a bit of advice. CapQuest called my work today (actually my colleagues phone behind me) - I've no idea how they got the number there are literally thousands of phones in our site. I briefly spoke with the loud lady - I didn't identify myself by name though my work colleague had passed the phone over after she asked for me so there's that. She identified herself and I duly informed her she was calling a works phone and that I couldn't help her. She said she'd call back later and we both hung up. This came as a bit of a shock - they have been calling my works mobile, but I'd done a quick internet search on the number and used my Blackberry to flag it as spam - but I was taken aback about them contacting me at work. As I did not speak with her for long or ask any information I can't say for certain why they were after me. I've had the odd letter over the past few years for a small amount of money which I think goes back to a mobile phone contact I had and defaulted on approximately seven years ago, which I've ignored to be honest. I'd like to know a few things if possible please: 1> Can they legally call a works phone? Despite being disruptive, it's embarrassing. 2> Can they still chase me after all this time? My understanding is it's six years and that's it - but is it six years since I cancelled my direct debit to O2, or six years since CapQuest received the debt? 3> What do I say when they ring up next, because I suspect they'll just keep calling and I can't block them from all the works landlines? 4> If I query the debt, is this acknowledgement and does it open me up to further problems? 5> I doubt I can but could I call the police for harassment? 6> Can I request, again without causing more grief for myself, information on where they got my phone number at work? Literally no-one other than Government organisations and internal staff have the number. Sorry to be so demanding I'm somewhat concerned. Thanks Phil
