1st Credit....Strange !!

[shammy36]

Hi Guys,

 

Been around cag for a long time now, but just wondering what these toerags are up to.

 

They were the first pond **** to buy my cc debt back in December 07 but scuttled off and sold the debt on to lower pond **** (is this possible;)) when sent the "account in dispute" letter,who got the same treatment,still no cca.

 

Today there was a letter from them containing about 20 statements from my old cc account, and a first credit with compliments slip, no explination just that.

 

Not going to bother to dignify it with a reply, but any thoughts guys:confused:

 

Cheers Sham

Hey

In their tiny minds they probably dimly perceive that you asked for SOMETHING but can't quite figure what, so sent all they had.

Your gut reaction matches mine, do nothing, wait for the next bit of nonsense (if any!)

I know..isn't it amazing how CAG changes you from dreading the post to looking forward to it?

I feel really needy and neglected if I don't get anything with big red letters on

Hi Folks new to site (joined 2day) picked up on 1st credit lot. Had another letter 2day from em saying I could have a 30% discount off my cc debt if, I paid in the next 6weeks. Goin to see how much more discount I can get!! will post result when I know

PS HFC (Beneficial Finance) have offered me a 50% discount to settle their account, any advance on 50% ladies and gentlemen.

Ask for a 100% discount & then you'll consider it

Hi smiley,

 

The problem with these threatmonkeys , is that they have not realised that you get further with a kind word , rather than the threat of a big stick !!

 

its human nature that when your pushed into a corner , bullied , intimidated , and abused , sooner or later the worm will turn !!

hiya all

 

oh ive had those nice letters ,,,,however the latest to darken my door is that they have viewed my credit files and see im much better with my finances now so can i call them to discuss my options???:rolleyes::lol:

 

ive ignored the phone calls thanks truecall,,,, not responded as id done that with the original creditor who insisted they had supplied my cca, which i cant read and ive disputed but then they default me and sell it on

 

 

so now its who blinks first,,,,lol

 

im tempted to request a cca from them but then,,,might just use the cpr route if i get any court claim

 

i dont know what they mean about my credit file,,, but i guess they can see the mortgage is being paid on time and so how does that prove im doing better financially??

 

so be on your guard guys,,,will be requesting my upto date files from all this week

I too have had one of these lovely "we see you are better off now" letters after clearly looking at my credit file. I have towed the line with this lot as when they first started on me I was extremely scared of them and hadn't the confidence to deal them. I just pay them what I can afford but generally speaking when I get the usual "full and final settlement offer" I ignore them and leave well alone. What's the best way to progress? Do I just ignore them and hope they will crawl off back into the woodwork. They get their pound of flesh off me every month through CCCS or do I start provoking them?

I can't believe how low they stoop. Even a Judge will agree that certain 'priority' debts have to be paid first, so now because we do that and they go poking about in our credit files they penalise us:confused:

 

This is sinking to even lower depths.

 

It has been my experience that when they start offering f & f settlement figures it is usually because they know they have no way of enforcing that particular debt in Court.

Just hang on a sec - what gives them any rights whatsoever to go poking around in anyones credit file?

its assumed that by giving the OC the right when you applied for credit etc, that these morons who are dealing with the debt have the same right, not very nice but there you have it

Not forgetting of course that they (the banks/dcas) own the credit reference agencies, who regularly flag up any changes in your status to their "preferred members", i.e. their owners...its all just one big racket:-x

[angel_1]

hiya all and yes i agree, but is it just best to ignore them since im getting to the stage that if they did have an enforceable agreement which i dont think they have on my mbna one,,,,, i can leave this until they take court action and then respond with a defense to view the documents they will rely on in court before i consider any payment to them?

 

what can they actually do by saying they are viewing my credit file, im not getting anymore credit - trying to clear the enforceable debts away and challenging anyone who actually is challenging me via any court action - but as yet no one yet sent me any court papers,,,,

 

so wait for their next move?? guess me and lots of us in the same boat then

 

laters guys thanks have a sunny day angel x
