Hi, I originally posted a thread in December 2007 relating to HFO Services. After a lot of advice I did what was recommended. After January 08 I did not hear anything from them ever again. Lo and behold today I received a Notice of Assignment of Debt from them stating that my account has been sold by Barclaycard to HFO Capital. The strange thing is that was what they said in December 2007. Three years on they have reared their ugly heads again stating "I request you to contact me as soon as possible so that we may work towards reaching an amicable solution on this outstanding issue of yours which is incurring interest charges because of non-payment"

 

Anyone have any advice please - I have searched hi and lo for my previous correspondence with them, but am unable to find it unfortunately. I am sure that I am going to be continually harrassed by them yet again

Can you post up the NoA, removing personal info.

[sharondogf]

Sorry I am unable to do that my laptop is not attached to a scanner or printer!

[broken arrow]

Does it give an address for HFO Capital?

[broken arrow]

Have had a quick read back over the thread, I would not worry to much, they are just trying it on, otherwise they would have started proceedings a long time ago.

[patrickq1]

i remember your posts Sharron, so they have come back to haunt you again ,don't worry help is here ,i doubt they will have an address abroad they will more likely use services addy huh

They are using their HFO Services address in West Byfleet. Shall I just ignore it then?

Hi

 

Is this the same debt they were chasing 2-3 years ago when you started this thread?

Interesting case. Another mess between Barclaycard and HFO.

 

Do you still have the original NoA sent in 2007? It will be interesting to see if they claimed it was assigned to HFO Services at the time. Your scans are no longer accessible. It would be useful if you could repost the originals.

 

They appear to think they have not dealt with you regarding this account. Clearly they are mistaken.

 

They will be claiming that the debt is now owed to HFO Capital Ireland, rather than Cayman to whom it would have (possibly!) been originally assigned. HFO Capital Ireland bought out HFO Cayman in January 2008, but I guess you never received a notice of assignment telling you of the transfer? The fact that the two companies have the same name is irrelevant – they are completely unrelated legal entities.

 

A quick call to Barclaycard to ask to whom and exactly when the account was assigned would be useful. You may find they say Roxburghe. Please record the call if you can.

[sharondogf]

yes coledog this is the same debt they tried to chase 3 years ago.

 

Unfortunately I am unable to find all my previous correspondence received from them so a bit stuck

No just go with what you have - you can SAR HFO for the previous docs but prob not worth it. I have put the comment on another thread that they are now reviving old accounts - recent cases have proved this as they think that they can now get away with dodgy paperwork

[broken arrow]

Sharon, if they do decide to take this further, then other issues come in to play.

[coledog]

I recall a Donkey in Shrek, so do not worry

[DonkeyB]

A donkey in Shrek? I never touched him, your honour!

[patrickq1]

No Comment me lud

Evening Pat. Hope you’re well.

A week or so ago i received a letter from HFO and attached to that was a copy of my credit file. I received another letter from them stating that they would apply to the court for either a ccj or a charging order. I have not responded to any of these letters. Today I received a call from them at my place of work (not sure how they got the number as I most certainly wouldnt have supplied them with it). The woman on the other end of the phone said that I hadnt responded to her letters and needed to discuss this. I told her that i didnt appreciate a call at work and not to call me there again, she wanted a mobile number which I refused to give. She kept on at me and in the end I advised her that I will not deal with her over the phone and she told me it was illegal for me to ignore their letters. I put the phone down but a few minutes later she called back. I told her she was harrassing me at work and her reply was that if I did not give her a mobile number to contact then she will continue to do so. I took her number in the end to get rid of her but she said if I didnt not ring them then they will continue to call me at work.

 

Please can anyone advise me on what to do - Thanks in advance.

All i can say for now is

 

1) make a note of the date time and content of the call

 

2) wait for the 28th Feburary 2011 when the High Court judgment is out in our clients case.

 

The judgment is a corker and may well upset HFO in a big way, as telephone harassment is a no no

Interesting.

[sharondogf]

Have I missed something - what's happening on the 28th Feb ?

[pt2537]

The High Court , Queens bench Division will be handing down a judgment in a matter which concerns among others, telephone harassment

 

I cannot go any further with this as the judgment (which i have) is confidential to parties involved until handed down

[sharondogf]

oh right - im just worried about the calls i will get at work, they have to go through a customer service dept before being put through. I dont want them constantly phoning me at work - do I call them or just ignore for the time being?
