All they are looking for is a positive identity Carpmad. Don't tell em who you are and just deny it if they ask you "are you .........". Then politely tell em to jog on. Job done.

Had a call off fidle it a while ago carpmad, told em to jog on and ain't heard anything since.

Thanks guys, my wife was really worried but after reading your replies she feels a lot more at ease. As do I. Thanks a lot. Warren I'm looking forward to one of the Grand Masters replies. Hahahaha. I don't like bullies scaring people by knocking at their door.

Cheers Warren. Just waiting on the next visit now.

Hi guys, hope everyone is well. Been on this site a few times and think it is a superb tool and helps us against the bully boy company's out there who try and feed on hardship and vulnerability. Hopefully I can add some advice or help in the future. I have a question of my own if anyone can help. Today I had a doorstep visit from a company called Fidelite. They asked who I was so I asked who he was and his face was a picture. I never gave him my name and told him politely to jog on. He is chasing a loan debt that I took out in 2004 and haven't paid or acknowledged the debt since at least 2006. I am sure the debt is now stat barred. Question is did I do the right thing. Regards and thanks in advance. Staffy.
