Name spelt wrong on DCA's records

[jbeavon]

Hi,

Just been looking through the various letters I've received from Cabot Financial, and they've got my name spelt wrong. Is this something that could potentially be used against them should matters go to court!

 

I mean, they're chasing a person that isn't actually me!

think you will be lucky, if its just a letter Im not sure it will make that much difference.

 

Sorry

[jbeavon]

Suspected as much, not that I'm planning on taking them to court, or allowing them to take me there! Just made me think....might be good ammunition to use against them for annoying them at some point though!

It does dent their credibility a little doesn't it?

Since when did cr@pbrot have any credibility

Agreed. Just thinking....I could most definitely send them a letter saying that nobody with that name lives at this address. It wouldn't be a lie!

Go for it

Haha - Im in the same boat with Apex and Allied DCA - they have my first name incorrect. I had thought about using the "noone of that name lives here" but thought I'd be pushing my luck

I did this many many years ago, DCA chasing a disputed phone bill, for about £25 mind you, mixed up my initials, wrong spelling of surname. Opened the letter, read it, wrote 'not known at this address' across it, resealed it and wrote return to sender. Never heard another word.

 

As others say, chancy though, not recommended, think I got lucky with the amount!

DCAs suffer from spelling problems all the time due to their poor quality of monkey. They also changed my sex by referring to me as a Mrs with an obvious male Christian name.

Agreed. Just thinking....I could most definitely send them a letter saying that nobody with that name lives at this address. It wouldn't be a lie!

 

*I have been here too long* You will still more than likely end up with a string of letters asking for more information either about yourself or the incorrect spelling of your name.

Yeah, I suspected as much. Ah well, doubt I'll need to use this as an option anyway seeing as they've just confirmed in writing that they don't have my original CCA!
