Hmm. I read a while ago on here that some meter readers by another company, think it was Eon (?) were being employed to collect debts.

 

Didn't know meter readers worked on a Sunday but the card wasn't here yesterday but today I have found a card through my letter box from Siemens meter reading services. Then I noticed something I've not seen before, as it doesn't indicate in the usual spaces when they will be calling again as they usually do if no one was in, it has printed in the corner with an arrow pointing 'insistently' towards a mobile phone number I can text meter readings to. Never seen that before on a meter reading card.

 

Now, it's clearly a Sunday, I've never had a meter reading done and didn't, in fact, know they did work on a weekend before. Which has made me a little wary of this card now. I will not be texting anyone as I've had a look at the Siemens site for anything that says 'we can leave a card, and you can reply with your meter readings' by texting this mobile number. It's also a way off my next billing period as well.

 

None of my DCAs or creditors have my present numbers for example, which is why I am a bit wary of it. Asides from finding it late on a Sunday afternoon, of course.

Thanks. Was thinking of leaving them online. Just very wary because of that card (there are other reasons why I am wary of it as well but won't go into those here).

Siemans have 2 registered Consumer Credit licences (which are needed for Debt collection)

Neither of which show Debt collection purpose.

In fact both show non "off".

meter readers are somewhat self employed, and could call on a sunday

 

pers i'd input the readings on your suppliers website and forget about the card totally

please don't hit Quote...just type we know what we said earlier..

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

I intend to, now as I normally put the card in the window in these situations. Next billing period is still a month away.

Thanks for that. In the meantime I have dug out the other two cards from previously this year, and some older ones I've kept, none of them have a mobile number on them.

Exactly what I was thinking or possibly to call round, to confirm I am in the house if I called that number. Hope I am wrong but you can't be too careful these days.
