Yes. They appear to sell wine and rent holiday homes as a sideline.

thanks for these replies

This outfit has sent me a standard letter (identical to the one sent to Yoker) claiming they have have been appointed to collect part of an outstanding balance at an account with a French bank. I have had no notification from the French bank concerning this, even though they have both my UK home address and email. I understand that contact from a DCA without prior formal notification from a creditor counts as "harassment by a creditor". 1. Is this "company" legally allowed to contact me? 2. Are they entitled to take any legal steps to try and recover this balance? 3. Are they permitted operate in this way? 4. Can I invoice them for time spent if they contact me again? 5. Should I refer them to the FCA, even tho their membership has lapsed. 6. Should I send them a "Letter before Action" to desist from contacting me? Any advice would be appreciated

I also have a similar problem with a French bank. Have also received a communication from the same individual at this company. Have you had any further contact with this organisation?
