"Offer" letter from Capquest

[Dontknowwhattodo]

Hi

 

Just received a letter from the Managing Director of the CapQuest Group.

 

Apparently:-

 

They have purchased my debt from MBNA.

 

I have been preselested for a one time solution to settle my account.

 

This is not a gimmick and nothing sinister.

 

It's a project.

 

The plan is simple:-

 

Agree to pay a minimum amount of £xxx every month by DD or another method that may suit.

 

For each payment received every month CapQuest will credit your account with a amount equal to 30% of the payment.

 

 

Shoud you wish to accept this offer please telephone xxxxx and have all the necessary bank documentation. This offer is availabe until 11th march 2010 when it will be withdrawn.

 

The letter does not have an account number - just says Debt purchased from MBNA.

 

How do I respond.

 

Many thanks.

 

Regards

how nice and kind of them..what an offer..personally i would send a prove i owe you any money at all letter first

[dcakiller]

preselected= we dont have a chance of collecting this so please give us some money.(allegedly)

[Huff&Puff]

It would appear that he is pre-selecting all their clients for this offer. Who would have thought that the managing director would have time to write to so many people? If he's got that much time on his hands he could try digging out some CCAs

Indeed, I remember seeing one of these on here over the weekend, so he stuck a pin in your name too, remember as the Managing Director he still may not be able to read:D

[Pinky69]

I wouldn't pay them a penny without proof they are entitled to ask you for payment and thereafter proof that the agreement is enforceable. Pre-selected my a*se!

[PGH7447]

pre-selected along with half their unenforceable debts they hold

 

you my friend are not in the minority but the majority, and I hazard a guess his name is marcus butterworth

I've also been preselected for this one time solution....twice!

Last October and about 3 weeks ago.

And me a few months back, Then after a couple of payments the project will revert to their normal tactics it is just a way to get you to admit the debt

Remember the old adage. If it looks to good to be true then it is too good to be trues.

Never look a gift horse (or donkey) in the mouth. Unless it's from a DCA... in which case send it off for processing as cat food.

Hi dontknowwhattodo,

 

I received exactly the same letter for an ex-Marbles debt of mine last week.

 

They cannot produce the CCA paperwork, so I sent them an "account in dispute" letter, and thats what they sent me from the "managing director" in reply.

 

I have just ignored it.

 

 

Hangus.

I was preselected for one of their offers, 50% discount on a debt they purchased from the Abbey. I have never had an account with the Abbey, so I binned it, or rather my ex did.

[Dontknowwhattodo]

All you responses have put so much more at ease. Have just done a prove it letter today - see what the Managing Director comes up with.

 

Many thanks.

Gosh - I have now received a letter from Marcus Butterworth!!!!! He wants me to contact him by 15th March in order legal proceedings. Wonder who to respond to Mike Daniels Managing Director or Marcus Butterworth:rolleyes:

 

Regards

Hmm, difficult choice. In fact it's so hard to make, that you'd probably be best not responding to either

[Zimmie]

It doesn't really matter which of the twits you respond to...they won't bother to respond to you.
