PayPal + Intrim Justica/Solicter

[zerofool2005]

Hey guys.

 

PayPal have claimed to Intrim Justica that I owe £24.77

 

They sent me letters but they are addressed to the wrong address (2 Numbers off)

 

My postie still gives them to me.

 

Now Ive got a letter from a solicitor "Geoffrey Parker Bourne"

 

Something fishy i think though. The letter is obvoiously a template. As it says"in the sum of £ (tab size space)24.77"

Also they put as their client "PayPal" yet the whole letter talks about contacting Intrim Justica to solve this matter.

Also Also They say I have 7 days before court proceedings will take place. Cheeky blighters posted it 2nd class. And is marked 26th June.

 

Is this for real?

What should I do. What can he/they do to me?

The onus is on them to prove you owe a debt, send them this; http://www.consumerforums.com/resources/templates-library/86-debt-collectors/573-general-debt-letter-if-you-know-nothing-of-the-debt

Dear Sir/Madam

 

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 CPUTR 2008 and the Office of Fair Trading's Guidance on debt collection, 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. AND 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 Trading Standards and also inform the Office Of Fair Trading of your actions.

 

I/we look forward to your reply.

 

Yours faithfully

Thank you very much.

 

Do i send this to IJ or the solicitor?

Also do i have to change the I/We?

[cerberusalert]

Yes send it to the solicitor, just delete the 'we'. Unless you're the 'Royal we'.

You will find these idiots play "pass the parcel" amongst themselves in an endless (and pointless) circle. Guess it gives them something to do.

[zerofool2005]

Its just ending up costing them every time.

 

They dont even have my right address.

At least it is keeping some people off the dole...
