Capquest SD - in court july for set aside - help

[sarahj8079]

Hi

 

Need a little bit more advice.

 

I received a few letters from Capquest regarding a bank account that is in the same name as mine but not anything I have ever had.

 

I ignored the letters as was recovering from an op at the time but they issued an SD so off to court I went and filled in the forms to get it set aside.

 

I have never written or spoken to Capquest.

 

I have also looked at my credit file - nothing from Capquest or Natwest on there!

 

My application to have it set aside was in March and my court date is not until the end of July. Is there any letter I should send them to get this resolved before the court date. I am having to take an unpaid day off from work which I cant really afford to do, I understand that whatever happens I will have to attend I just want this sorted instead of worrying about it all the time!

 

Any advice would be gratefully received.

 

Thanks

I am sorry but I think you will have to wait for the hearing although it does mean they can't move on either,

I have no doubt others will advise further.

If this is absolutely nothing to do with you, then you might be able to claim for the time you need to take off work. I have asked site team if they can advise.

Thanks CB I was sure you would come up with something.

Take a look around the forums you will see many people have applied for costs and won more than a days pay.

These people send Stat demands out like confetti as a scare tactic/method of bullying

Dont worry about it and enjoy the day off with extra pay!!

 

if you dont know the account and never owed anything you should have nothing to fear it is unlikely that CQ will even show up

You can also claim damages for the distress caused by having a false case brought against you.

I think you should have a read of this for when this is over

Hi

 

 

Capquest have gone a little quiet now so think it is about time you reported them to the OFT if you haven’t done so already.

 

 

Please bear in mind that the template letter on the first page of this thread:

http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk...=1#post3422496

 

may not be suitable for all and you will have to adapt it to your own circumstances I.E

You applied to get it set aside and CQ didn't turn up

You applied and CQ agreed to discontinue

You ignored and CQ did nothing

 

 

Today the OFT set out some new guidance and sending SD's as a debt collection tool is now frowned upon.

If you want to read it, here's the link

You can complain by email and the OFT will email you back a form to sign and post back to them for them to be able to add your complaint to their list.

I will be sending this post to every Cagger I have on my list so you may receive it again.
