IND Ltd Harley Street

[benlawyers]

Hi all,

 

i've had an order for the production of a statement of means from these people on behalf of another firm i've never heard of FV-1, Inc.

 

can anyone shed any light?

[cerberusalert]

FV-1 Inc is a trading name of Morgan Stanley of 25 Cabot Square. If you search the Information Commissioners Office Register for "FV-1 Inc" and "Morgan Stanley" you will see the same address. I suspect that HSBC Bank plc (of which I believe Metropolitan Collection Services Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary) as assigned your debt to Morgan Stanley T/A FV-1 Inc.

[benlawyers]

thank you so much for that. the letter i received from (had to sign for) was from IND Ltd, Harley Street and had an order attached from my local County Court. does this mean that HSBC or whoever has already had an attachment of earnings agreed? i have had no other correspondence from them to say what this supposed debt is about. i have to send the form directly to the court apparently and call IND to let them know if have done it but i want to know what the supposed debt is first. any suggestions as to how i give myself some breathing space to investigate?

that's great thank you. from the court point of view will it be sufficient to say that the account is in dispute while i find out what the hell it's about?

[harrassed senior]

Is it a Judgement or a Summons?

[angry cat]

Okay lets get this clear.

 

You state that you have received an order from your county court for the production of a statement of means, is this correct?

 

I presume that a court claim was issued prior?

 

Please provide more information.

A statement of means is normally dealt with by a Court Officer, in order to ascertain how much one can pay in relation to a debt.

But, after a judgement has been made; sometimes a default judgement.

[sillygirl1]

I would ring your court and find out if the claim has actually been processed - some companies are known to send a 'dummy' claims form out to scare people into paying.

 

If it is a dummy then report them (enclosing a copy of the 'claim form' and any documentation they sent) to the Trading Standards in the area, sadly Harley Street is known to harbour some very dodgy people these days.

 

If it isn't a dummy then let the court know that you haven't had any other paperwork and go for a set aside based on the grounds of the existing unresolved dispute.

[benlawyers]

thank you all. i have spoken with the court and they have suggested that i request a set aside but also to cca IND Ltd. i eventually got through to IND Ltd by phone and they are saying that its in relation to something from HSBC in 2005 so i am sending CCA. and have registered my query with the court. do i need to do anything else do you think? once again thanks for all your help guys.

although the paperwork was from the court, it wasn't sent by them but by IND Ltd. The Court do have a record of it though as coming from Northampton Bulk
