Have you had a Statutory Demand of Connaught/1st Credit?

[Having_A_Knightmare]

HI

 

I am in Court soon for a SD issued by Connaught.

 

They have wrote to me to say they have issued this in error.

 

Maybe this is a new tatic they are trying with the Courts?

 

Well its not good enough. I want to take proof to Court to show the Judge that they are using these to scare people to death.

 

If you feel comfortable doing so I would appriciate anybody that has had a SD issued by the above to email me so I can produce this to the Judge. I will also then send the info off to the OFT, my MP and FOS for them to investigate.

Just do a search on the forums. There'll be quite a few in the debt free wannabee forum or the bankruptcy one.

I had one but ignored it. Anyone that sends one in the post can't be that serious about it. After the 21 days were up they threatened to bankrupt me so I CCA'd them. By return of post they closed the file and returned it to the OC.

 

Had another one from Red/Lowell in the post ignored that one too. They also threatened to bankrupt me so I CCA'd them too. They acknowledged my CCA request and told me they had asked the OC for the info which so far hasn't surfaced. They have recently offered me a 60% discount which as gone on the ignore pile. Might give them a call though and ask them for a copy of their complaints procedure.

I had what looked like an SD from Connaught a while on behalf of !st Credit,scared the living daylights out of me, but then I found this forum.

 

I sent them a CCA with my token £1.00 and within a week they had written back saying that they had closed the file and returned it to !st.Credit.

 

I haven't heard anything from !st Credit yet.

 

Here's the thread with the paperwork I had,hope it helps.

Hi HAK

 

When is your hearing & how soon before it did they contact you?

 

Mines is in a couple of weeks & I have not had any contact about my cca request which is well over the 12 + 2 days apart from them acknowlodging my request

[stress ed]

mine was pretty the much same as Wendy's case, they also closed the file on it and returned back to 1st ****heads. now Lowell have bought the debt off them, but thats a differant thread altogether. best of luck:)

Yep, I had one off them, wrote to them saying that I can't believe they were writing to me when I have proof of a letter I sent them over four years ago with credit card details on accepting the low settlement figure they were offering.....

 

then they send me a letter 21 days later telling me that they are now in a position to bankrupt me..... so I write to them again enclosing ALL the original paperwork....

 

Not heard from them since and this was over 5 months ago now!

 

I wish I'd known about the go to court and get set aside thing as I would have gone for costs without fail!

Yes, I had one by 2nd class post last year. When I CCAed them they 'closed the file'. Strange then that they have continued to send me threatening letters despite failing to fulfill the CCA request.
