Lowell Portfolio

[Strand08]

As my last thread was getting out of hand, I have started a new one here. I have received a second letter from Lowells about an alleged debt I last paid in 2004. It was for some furniture and the OC was Cetelem UK. I have been viewing this site for the last few weeks and it has given me confidence to fight back. I will send Lowells, curlybens Prove it letter (yes Saintly 1, it's the same) and see what they come back with. Thank you for all the support and I apologise for the confusion on my last thread. I was asking about the success rate of OC's being able to produce a CCA. ODC what do you mean when you say;

It really depends on what the ALLEGED debt is for as to the success rate of a CCA application. If its a debt covered by the CCA then a CCA letter to them would be the next step

AS I say it is an alleged debt on a buy now pay later agreement for furniture, last paid in 2004. Edited May 30, 2008 by Strand08
To clarify my points, from my last thread.

Seems to be happening a lot lately.

 

Lowells seem to be trying to get a lot of alleged debts, we had one earlier in the year after 3 months we got a sorry we dont have a credit agreement. Good luck with yours

Strand I wish you would stick to one thread. You appear to be getting people confused

[ukaviator]

Threads merged. Please stick to one thread.

Oops, sorry. I am confusing myself. I was asking about the success rate of OC's being able to produce a CCA. ODC what do you mean when you say;

Right then you need to get the CCA letter off to Lowells. Send it recorded delivery. Enclose a £1 postal order and DO NOT SIGN the letter.

When they respond scan and post the agreement of here (remove personal details) and we will tell you if its enforcable or not

[Strand08]

Thank's ODC. Will send the CCA letter out on Monday and forget about the prove it letter. Will keep you informed of events.

Hi bingos,

 

If you haven`t aknowledged the debt in over 6 years, then it will be statute barred, so you`ll need to send the statute barred letter.

 

Could you start a new thread for this and paste a link here so we can find it and follow it through with you?

 

Hope this helps.

 

Regards

....or completely ignore them and retain your privacy.

 

If they are stupid enough to attempt home visits or court action on a statute barred debt, shout it from the rooftops and make sure everyone from the OFT to your MP knows about it.

Well, yeah, there is that as well

 

Don`t forget to totaly insult and abuse the crank who comes banging on your door, as they are simply no-bodies with no powers at all.

 

Knock him out and say he came into your house and threatened your family, and of course you have to defend yourself.

 

Don`t forget to shread his ID if he has any

Don`t forget to shread his ID if he has any

 

Advice from Consumer Direct is to take the ID off the caller and leave them outside the (locked) door while you verify their identity on the phone. If they turn out to be false, and do a runner, you still have the ID they provided to be able to give to the Police. If they refuse to allow you to take the ID you tell them to 'go away', then call the Police.

 

If they are a doorstepper from a DCA you follow this procedure but, while you are trying to call their office, their ID may just fall into your shredder... Like it!
