    Didn't get much back to be honest. And i am on auto pilot regarding DCA rubbish these days.. i hardly bother to even file or read the stuff. If it's from a DCA i just bin it/ignore it.
  2. Keep in mind though that if they really really really wanted to track someone down.. they could. DVLA sells drivers details to any creditor that pays a small fee. And you have to register your car to a new address in Law which you can't get away with not doing. But it's all about what assets they think you have, the strength of their case against you and value of debt as to whether that's all worth while for them... or not.
  3. Sorry i missed your last post.. all change here and haven't been very active. I suspect there is a 'duty' somewhere (might even be in the credit agreements?!) that says you should inform the creditors of a change in circumstance (including address). But to be honest if you are stressed out and can't pay and they haven't listened to your demands for information etc etc then its understandable (in my opinion) if you were to forget to inform them of a move. I guess that's why we have Statute Barred legislation at least, in part, in situations where the creditor looses touch with a valued customer.
  4. Been a while since you updated this one.. any progress?
  5. personally i like to take a tougher more aggressive stance than that but it's fine and what ever you are most comfortable with. Nothing wrong with that at all. Maybe you'll get a reply.. maybe not.. just sit back in the sunshine and see

    My only experience with Apex was one letter back in 2008. I didn't reply and they never bothered me again. After that it went to Moorcroft.
  7. The website for clear your finance doesn't seem to be working (if we are talking about the same one). Perhaps contact trading standards and ask them to confirm the company's current status?
  8. Hi Annyfrog Not quite my area but i'll try and point you in the right direction and give an opinion. If you are sure everything else is in order re the agreements (prescribed terms/signatures etc) and the problem is with the calculated interest rate then i would say the amount in question is the issue. If it's a small minor discrepancy (a few pounds more or less) then i doubt a Judge would come down very hard on the creditor for it even if technically the agreement is not in order. (And likewise the creditor won't be too concerned if you push it, or look like you are pushing it towards a court room.) If on the other hand the amount is considerable in relation to the loan amount (Difference between what the paperwork says and what your actually paying) then at least you have a good bargaining tool to use against the creditor and a situation that creditor would prefer not to be looked at by a Judge. So they will/could be likely to come to a compromise (eventually) to avoid that happening. Depends on how much money we are talking about as to how much the creditor digs their heals in. You can use a major discrepancy in the agreement as leverage to get a better deal/full & final.. maybe a write off although that last one is tough to get and depends on how confident you are about your stance and what you want to try to achieve as well as the state of the legal issues currently of which i am no expert and i certainly haven't been watching very closely for a few months. In the first instance i would post up here your agreement (minus personal details) for others more in tune with these specific issues to view and give their opinion on. They might see other potentially helpful flaws to use against the creditor. In the mean time here are a couple of threads i have found with similar issues you might find useful to read through. Hope that's of some help. http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/welcome-finance/250224-my-welcome-finance-agreement.html http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/legal-issues/249898-unforceable-credit-agreements.html
  9. ah well it says 'placed' so its not been bought just passed for collection. No NOA as usual. in fact, i have hardly ever been given one of those so stopped asking a long time ago lol sorry, can't write more at the mo. Just sliced a big gash out of my finger with a massive kitchen knife so got it bandaged up and typing with one hand at the mo lol

    Hi BRW.. nice to see you. Thanks for the usual info. Haven't replied yet so i will certainly add that info and don't expect to hear from them again there after... probably. lol Foolishgirl: Thanks for the link and info. Just back online again now so will look into that with interest.
  11. Cabot/fire got fed up with no replies from me and have passed it to Scotcall. Tired of waiting for the ICO and suspect i'll just send Scotcall a get lost/do not acknowledge letter and then forget about them whatever they send there after:
  12. Hope you can change your phone number to get some peace and quiet
