Hi everyone,

I am a newbie and absolutely scared by the whole experience.

 

Not long ago I received a letter from cap quest demanding £500 on behalfof the cap 1 credit card.

 

It came out of the blue as

 

I was trying to repay my debt by sending £10 a month to cap1 account for the past 2 years.

 

Trying to find a way of dealing with DCA

 

I found some advice on this website and sent cca demand.

 

After receiving the standard 28 days account on hold letter,

the cca copy and some typed statements arrived in the today's post.

 

The letter demands that I arrange a payment scheme and failure to do so will result in passing my account to collection department for further action.

 

My account with cap1 was set up in 2005 and I defaulted on a few payments

but I tried to send a small sum of money each month to cover the outstanding balance

and now it seems the interest applied is gigantic and I have an alleged debt wit capQuest.

 

Has anybody got any advice what to do next?

 

Miserable M

First of all don't panic.....I too am dealing with Capquest as they are acting on behalf of Capital One for my old credit card debt......

 

These people will try to harass, scare and bully you into paying more than you can afford or for a debt that is unenforceable.

 

Try if you can to stay calm, post your cca minus your personal details and someone will be along shortly to take a look and give advice on next steps.

 

This site has been a great help to me in my situation and I feel confident enough with the knowledge I have gained from this site to tackle these morons either on the phone or with replies to their computer generated letters ;)

 

Good luck

OK first thing to do is send crap1 a sar for all statements since this account was opened, then we can see what they have added, in the meantime send crappyQ an account in dispute letter stating that you disagree with the balance quoted and are awaiting the results of a sar send to the OC, and until such time you do not recogninse any debt to them.

 

also have you recieved a notice of assignment from crpa1

if you don't know what scott has asked then you would need to send cap one sar to get a list of charges that have been applied to reclaim theseback to reduce the amount.

 

here are some template letetrs you can send capquest to make an offer of payment:

no i haven't got. does the name on the cca need to be identical to that on my cap1 statements? It seems like my middle initial is missing from the cca sent by capquest. seems like i am doomed here...

the only other thing is if there is a problemt with the default.

 

you would need to sed cap one the sar to see the default and termination notice

 

and also you can reclaim the charges

not doomed yet you have a long way to go.. chances are there will be a lot of charges on account you can offset against the debt also remember you pay only the amount you can afford... not what the dca say they want...you are in charge of your money not them

  • 4 years later...

Hi everyone,

 

I have received a letter from Lowell Portfolio 1 today claiming they have purchased my debt from Capital One on the 24th of July

and would like me to ring them and pay them £516.

 

This particular debt had been bought by another DCA four years ago (CapQuest).

 

I managed to dispute it and

 

then the acount was closed and

 

passed back to C1 on the basis of missing Credit Agreement docs.

 

There was no further contact from anybody concerned untill today's lowell letter.

 

The debt is now 3 months away from being Statue barred (what does it mean by law?)

and now I don't quite know what is going to happen.

 

Can anybody give me any advise of what to do in this situation,

 

shall I ring them and explain the whole story?

Any help much appreciated.
