Are DCA's timing their letters to arrive on Christmas Eve?

[jobmid]

~Home Collections Division - just in time for Xmas.

 

You better set another place at your table then they might pop around for xmas dinner:p

"valid, even if not read by you".....whats that supposed to mean like?

[mr.ton]

"valid, even if not read by you".....whats that supposed to mean like?

 

No-one really knows, 1 of the unsolved mysteries of DCA land - so ludicrous that im not sure they even know

[clemma]

It means you better answer or else........we MAY be able to take you to court, even if this letter was read by someone in Timbuktu.....

 

Valid, even if not read by you

Nothing today But yesterday got a letter from Lloyds to tell my deceased mother that she owes them 20K and their agents haven't been able to get hold of her. We had no idea about that one and it has taken them 8 months to make first contact

 

Why does this not surprise me in the slightest:rolleyes: and to think with the merger they are going to be one of the biggest banks (therefore most powerfull no doubt in there logic) in the uk:eek:

 

They cant communicate with there own departments now, let alone there customers, so whats it going to be like when they get all of HBOS,s to deal with as well

 

And no one at the top saw a problem with this?????

 

I see an intresting 2009 in front of us

Fuzzybobbles... with respect I would beg to differ, broadly speaking your diagnosis is correct but it could be PMDD.

 

from:

Premenstrual tension - PMT syndrome symptoms and cause

 

A small number of women with PMS may be diagnosed with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). This is a more severe form of the syndrome characterised by mood swings, depression, anxiety and irritability that interferes substantially with everyday life.

 

How dare you

You uncaring males....

I will sue you all for damage to the female species

I had a lovely letter from westcot 'cos they're too incompetant to find details of my BR on-line

[UnmoderatetheNet]

Moorcroft have now set up a CAG Member Division.

 

 

Its the shredder in the corner.

 

 

I nominate this for quote of the year

[pompeyfaith]

dont know about DCA's but i got two from my bank gave me a laugh if nothin else even one from the customer feedback team which relates to nothing and a final default warning funny how my case is now with the FOS as its in deadlock as far as the CO-OP BANK goes Funny also that they owe me over £20,000 in mis-sold PPI due to a previous medical condition and a total failure of consideration I'm now seriously thinking about taking them to court for harassment and putting pressure on my current account which is also on hold due to charges.

 

Roll on the new year they know they gotta big payout that's why they are piling on the pressure.

 

I have a rock solid case with all there letters.

 

Co-op bank keep those letters coming as you are digging yourself's a bigger hole

 

Rant over sorry people but there tactics are really winding me up I'm ready for a fight.

 

Regards

I got one from iQor on Christmas eve too.....and yesterday I got another one from them headed "Notice of Legal Proceedings" and on the next line "this is not a court document".....so why the hell do they think I will take any more notice of it than any other letters they have sent me?

 

I have been wondering just how many more DCA's BOS will pass my account onto, just to be sent the standard "bemused" letter by me and have it passed straight back to them?....Just makes my file of complaint to the FOS more chubby!

[cashins]

Got my first DCA call for this year this morning.

 

Phone went dead when answered and turned out to be Moorcroft and their, "If you are not the person....." when did 1471.

 

What is the matter with these people. Am I really supposed to phone these people and tell them to **** off on my phone bill?

I got a DCA letter posted on 23rd December, arriving on 30th, second class post of course and the silly beep..beep.. beep gave me 5 days to pay up.

They haven't got a chance, as the account is in serious dispute with the original lender.

[babydoll0141917]

LOL yep cashins and the right colour for xmas ..at least they got that right

[propjoe]

mrs got letter off blurt olive and skitt telling her that they are now taking care of her current account this was posted 22nd dec and next have been on the phone every working day during christmas as well

[Mrs_Ryan]

I got one from Fashion World saying 'They had checked my account and found i hadnt paid!'

 

I couldnt resist ringing them and saying they should have gone to SpecSavers cos I had actually paid before they sent the letter In all fairness, they apologised though

[PGH7447]

Got a default notice from CL finance on 27 Dec. saying I have not paid, Well spotted.

 

I did ask for their bank details 2 months ago and am still waiting, so wrote back and pointed out this little error of theirs and told them not to bother with the bank details anymore, cause if they want to default me due to their incompetence, then I will not be setting up any agreed sum ever again, and by the way this account is in serious dispute due to mis-sold PPI, and unlawful charges to be refunded.
