i spoke to 1st credit about 6 months ago and they said final payment was nov09

i hav

e never missed a payment in 5 yrs so i am wondering if they are trying it on due to being payed up next month.

Well that would be unbelievable behaviour if you are right:mad:

i was paying £50 a month my last payment is £31 due to standing order which tells me its payed up in nov i checked this on my internet banking i have printed the standing order ,just in case i have to go to cab,why cant these companies just let you pay the debit and be done with it now i am worrying.

[kid]

thats the good thing about standing order, it tells you when the account is paid up

Hi Kid

I should not worry about it to much! As you say you got proof you paid debt by standing order and they will look pretty stupid trying to threaten any legal action over a remaining payment of £31

These DCAs are unbelievable sometimes i got to work once at 8.30 am and my superviser said she had someone trying to contact me at 8.00 from an ocverseas call centere i believe,Also my OH had said he had a number of call from MBNA that day.At that time i could not understand why they were tryng to contact me so urgently as i thought i had paid them that month,I couldent belive it when they told me they had been trying to contact over a underpayment of about 38 pence if i remeber rightly! It must have cost them that in phone calls! unbelievablew they were trying to embaress me at work over that sort of sum:mad: Still after that i soon went to full scale war with them and now battling them in court.

If thy do they need reporting especially as you kept your payments up:mad:

Examples like this only go to show why they should not be paid anything at all.

You are someone who did repay, yet thats how they thank you
