Send them the 'Prove It' letter;

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

Account no:

 

You have contacted me/us regarding the account with the above reference number, which you claim is owed by myself/ourselves.

 

I/we would point out that I/we have no knowledge of any such debt being owed to (insert company name).

 

I am/we are familiar with the Office of Fair Trading Debt Collection Guidance which states that it unfair to send demands for payment to an individual when it is uncertain that they are the debtor in question.

 

I/we would also point out that the OFT say under the Guidance that it is unfair to pursue third parties for payment when they are not liable. In not ceasing collection activity whilst investigating a reasonably queried or disputed debt you are using deceptive/and or unfair methods.

 

Furthermore ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment amounts to physical/psychological harassment.

 

I/we would ask that no further contact be made concerning the above account unless you can provide evidence as to my/our liability for the debt in question.

 

I/we await your written confirmation that this matter is now closed. Otherwise I will have no option but to make a complaint to the trading standards department and consider informing the OFT of your actions.

 

I/we look forward to your reply.

 

**Edit to suit**

 

Remember, don’t sign the letter.

I've also received a letter from CCI Legal (a DCA) who are acting on behalf of Aviteo Ltd T/A Usenext stating that I owe them 110 euros from a lapsed agreement to use usenext (a private server for downloading files) from 2007. As this service is a pre-pay rolling contract and I did not renew as my credit card had expired, I fail to see how I can "owe" money on a service I cannot use as it is pre-pay only.

 

I have sent them a 'Prove it' letter and will now sit back and see what happens, this looks like a similar event as above.

 

Please keep me informed as to how you get on and I'll do the same.

 

Good Luck.

That was the same reason for mine keeper, my card changed so they couldnt withdraw the monthly payment. But they only renew your download allowance if you pay the monthly payment so I cant see how I owe them £25. Let me know how you get on mate.

My wife has just received her second letter from CCI Legal.

 

It sounds like it's the same as those previously mentioned here: you owe us some money for a trial account that was extended. The date on my wifes letter was more than two years ago.

 

Neither my wife or myself have heard of USENEXT so I'm assuming this is some sort of [problem]. Having searched online there seem to be quite a few people getting these letters, with some people saying they have used USENEXT and others saying they're never heard of them. The email address stated on the letter isn't one my wife has ever used.

 

I haven't decided whether to send them a letter or to keep ignoring them. Hopefully when this gets reported in forums more and more they'll give up trying to con people.

In spite of previous reminders you have not paid the amount as detailed above.

Unless this is paid direct to the above address by 23/02/2009 we shall immediately recommend to our client that an adverse entry be made against your name and address with the principal Credit Reference Agencies.

Sorry it's a bit big :D.

 

If anyone has any ideas I'd be willing to listen, but I think my next move should be to send them another letter in a few days.

 

Maybe something like this ?

 

 

 

Ref: [enter ref here]

 

 

Dear Sir/Madam

 

Thank you for your letter of [enter date], the contents of which have been noted.

 

You have failed to respond to my legal request to supply me a true copy of the original Consumer Credit Agreement for the above account.

 

On [enter date] I made a formal request for a true signed agreement for the alleged account under consumer credit Act 1974 s77/8. A copy of which is enclosed for your perusal and ease of reference.

You have failed to comply with my request, and as such the account entered default on [enter date 12+2 working days from when you sent it]

 

The document that you are obliged to send me is a true copy of the executed agreement that contained all of the prescribed terms, all other required terms and statutory notices and was signed by both your company and myself as defined in section 61(1) of CCA 74 and subsequent Statutory Instruments. If the executed agreement contained any reference to any other document, you are also obliged to send me a copy of that document. In addition a full statement of this account should have been sent to me detailing all debits and credits to the account.

 

Furthermore

 

You are aware that the Consumer Credit Act allows 12 working days for a request for a true copy of a credit agreement to be carried out before you enter into a default situation.

 

As you are no doubt aware section 77(6) states:

 

If the creditor fails to comply with Subsection (1)

 

(a) He is not entitled , while the default continues, to enforce the agreement.

 

Therefore this account has become unenforceable at law.

 

As you have failed to comply with a lawful request for a true, signed copy of the said agreement and other relevant documents mentioned in it, failed to send a full statement of the account and failed to provide any of the documentation requested.

 

Consequentially any legal action you pursue will be averred as both UNLAWFUL and VEXATIOUS.

 

Furthermore I shall counterclaim that any such action constitutes unlawful harassment.

 

Please note you may also consider this letter as a statutory notice under section 10 of the Data Protection Act to cease processing any data in relation to this account with immediate effect.

 

This means you must remove all information regarding this account from your own internal records and from my records with any credit reference agencies.

 

Should you refuse to comply, you must within 21 days provide me with a detailed breakdown of your reasoning behind continuing to process my data.

 

It is not sufficient to simply state that you have a ‘legal right’; you must outline your reasoning in this matter and state upon which legislation this reasoning depends.

 

Should you not respond within 14 days I expect that this means you agree to remove all such data.

 

Furthermore you should be aware that a creditor is not permitted to take ANY

Action against an account whilst it remains in dispute.

 

The lack of a credit agreement is a very clear dispute and as such the following applies.

 

* You may not demand any payment on the account, nor am I obliged to offer any payment to you.

* You may not add further interest or any charges to the account.

* You may not pass the account to a third party.

* You may not register any information in respect of the account with any credit reference agency.

* You may not issue a default notice related to the account.

 

I reserve the right to report your actions to any such regulatory authorities as I see fit.

You have 14 days from receiving this letter to contact me with your intentions to resolve this matter which is now a formal complaint.

 

I would appreciate your due diligence in this matter.

 

I look forward to hearing from you in writing.

 

Yours faithfully

 

Print Name, DO NOT SIGN

 

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi, has anyone had anymore contact with these jokers lately?

 

I sent my prove it letter off on the 6th of Feb & received something back today marked 'WITHOUT PREJUDICE'.

 

"This agreement is not subject to the Consumer Credit Act 1974. It is a non-regullated agreement for fixed sum creditor running credit"

 

Along with the usual drivel........

 

I signed up for the Usenext Trial and was a member for a year, ending 16/02/07 luckily I still have my 12 receipts, etc. but my time could be better spent other than sending emails and letters to these clowns though!

I've received an email from Usenext claiming I owe them 105 euros, after having a trial with them on 11 Dec 2006.

 

To the best of my recollection I tried to cancel, and may have succeeded, but have no proof.

 

I have a paypal receipt of 1 Euro for the trial, but I did not pay for the full term.

 

Now, over three and half years later they are trying to collect payment.

I've sent an email asking if the charge can possibly be correct, and received an automated acknowedgement from CCI.

 

As they do not seem to have my address (and they're not getting it!), I'm loath to send a letter to them. Should I just send a "Prove-It" email?

 

Thanks

Dave

Sorry for bumping an old thread but I received an email along these lines today, albeit from Usenext, not CCI and I am concerned.

 

I signed up with usenext for a year many years back with phony details albeit with my correct email address and paypal account. I was living at a different address at the time if that makes any difference.

 

However I did do a free trial here one month so presumably they will have my IP address.

 

Can they demand my details from paypal?

 

I have reported the email as a phishing [problem].

 

Does anyone have any updated information on this subject?

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

if you send the proove it letter which we was told to send then they'll get off your back. They tried to demand £25 from myself but I sent them the proove it letter and I havent received anything since. Do not pay them a penny. If you scrool up and copy and the letter above and edit it then just send it.

Just send them the letter and only give them your usenext account number. You dont need to give them any bank details etc.

Copy the following:

 

Dear Sir/Madam

Hi there,

 

I too received a "Reminder" e-mail from USENEXT yesterday for over 100 Euros. They're obviously on the look out for more money from unsuspecting victims.

 

I only paid 1 Euro by PAYPAL for the 14-day "Free trial" which I let lapse as I never used the service. I was totally unaware of this so-called rolling contract. Can CCI still make an adverse entry against me in the Credit Reference Agencies even though I paid by PAYPAL?

 

The reminder stated:-

I too received an email yesterday asking for 105 euros, I did cancel 1 year ago and have also paid for Usenext for various months when I could afford to. I have sent a prove it email to them. So I will have to see what happens.

But can they take the money from your bank account using the details you gave previously to pay for UseNext.

I've just received a letter (posted to my parents address that I moved from 20 years ago) regarding outstanding debt to Usenext. The letter is from a German company called Profaktura (Munich based) and refers to a "service contract dated 25th May 2009. I've never subscribed or been anywhere near Usenext. Anyone got any suggestions? Should I use the "prove it" letter despite the debt collector not being British? Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same problem, I got an invoice dated 05.09 for a payment that was due nov07-dec07, I cancelled my contract online in 2008, I have not made any further payments or received any invoices for payment since. then today I got a letter from ProFaktura demanding that I pay the 19.95 + 45 eur charges.

 

It also states that to secure the claim the debtor assigns the distrainable part of his future wage/salary.

 

The only method to make payment is to fill out bank account details together with personal information + d.o.b, it states there is no automatic payment transfer option, so the only method to pay is to provide them with my bank details.

 

Now I get the impression that this company and usenext and ripping off us brits, please can someone with legal experience help us for free to stop these people picking on are older folk and upseting them.

 

Regards,

 

Paul.
