If you have had a letter from Fredrick International it seems like they may have tried to sell it on.

UPDATE

 

it's been almost a year since I heard anything from Cap One or any of their cronies. I wrote and told them to bog off when they couldn't come up with a proper CCA. Today (28/08/09) I received these letters in the same envelope.

 

What next? Do I CCA Lowells or just ignore them?. Can I SAR Cap One and claim charges and mis sold PPI? Any advice as what to do next gratefully received. Thanks in advance x

It's up to you Emma.

 

I normally ignore the first DCA letter...you will probably get another within a week or so. Then just reply to Lowells as you did previously in the thread, not acknowledging the debt and asking them to prove it. Also add the standard bits about only communicating in writing and revoking licence for anyone to visit your property.

 

When they get around to sending you a copy of the agreement (which they will probably have to go back to OC to get) just write and tell them the account is in dispute and ignore all future communications.

 

Ultimately, such matters will continue to prevail until such time as the matter is taken to court or becomes statute barred.

 

Best of luck...:p

 

PS...someone else will need to advise about the charges....you might be on dodgy ground there but certainly the PPI might be worth it. However, they may just end up crediting this sum against the account they have sold to Lowells...I read something similar on another thread.

Hi Welshmam and thanks for the quick reply. Think i'll do what you suggest and ignore them at first.

 

I cant quite understand why the letters are in the same envelope? And I can't stop laughing at this bit 'it is our aim to help you clear the indebtedness you currently have with ourselves'. Is indebtedness actually a real word? lol x

Because in fact Lowell sent both letters, (although they will deny it flat).

 

If you notice, it's on white paper and Cap 1 never use a data block, (the square thing in the middle), they use barcodes.

I'd regard this as a positive result Emma, since it means Cap One have given up and sold the account for pennies in the pound to the dregs of the DCA'a Lowell Portfolio who seem to do nothing other than write threatening letters using multiple names.

 

You'll get plenty of help dealing with those clowns on here.

 

You're in the home straight now!

Agreed...keep the envelope though. Deeds of Assignment are meant to be sent by recorded or registered delivery. So, if Lowell's did instigate proceedings at a later date, it's something you can use against them also.

This is my first post and if I'm doing anything wrong I'm sorry

Hi Emma (Love the name LoL)

Like others I have been reading threads on here for quite a while and have gained a lot of insight re the way DCA's work and that in turn helps a great deal

Here's a little piece of info I've picked up ...

In Lowell's letter they give you the chance to pay by "Debit Card or Credit Card"

This is a much shortened clip from OFT Guidelines ...

"The following list is taken from the new Debt Collection Guidelines for holders of consumer credit licences.

Putting pressure on debtors or third parties is considered to be oppressive.

This includes ....

Pressurising you to sell property or take out more debt"

I know someone with more experience will correct me if I'm wrong but I think Lowell have messed up straight away by mentioning payment by Credit Card

Don't let them get you down, easier said than done I know but the success stories on here make great reading

My thanks to all those who's posts I've read and I hope over time I'll be able to help as well

[sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I asked them to wait whilst I got my Bank card :violin:
