Hi,

I received a letter from transcom saying they were collecting my eBay debt on behalf of eBay.

 

I contacted eBay and they said my details were forwarded on, so I know this isn't a [problem].

 

I got a call and then told the operator I will pay in full on Saturday.

 

However on the eBay forums someone told me to tell them this before I pay

 

"When you pay Transcom, you need to make sure they will mark your credit rating as the debt being paid in full and final settlement

- get that in writing before you pay."

 

Can anyone tell me what this means and when I should contact them saying this

It means exactly what it says

- for the record to be seen as fully resolved the creditor must mark the debt as above.

 

Otherwise (not exactly sur what the wording is) they will mark it as it wasn't fully settled

which would imply you came to a settlement agreement and did not pay the full amount.

 

This could potentially cause (more) problems with credit in the future.

DO NOT PAY THE FLEECING DCA

 

settle your outstanding balance using your PAYPAL LOGIN.

on the PAYPAL site.

 

a DCA HAS NO LEGAL POWERS

they are NOT BAILIFFS

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...

As above. I have just had a similar issue.

Pay your ebay invoice via paypal ASAP.

 

Transcom will more than likely now try and chase you for a £16 administration fee for the pleasure of writing you a letter.

I have literally just had the same problem.

 

I was away and couldn't pay my ebay invoice within the allocated timescale, they passed to Transcom,

I then paid eBay as soon as I could, but

 

Transcom insisted I pay their £16 fee.

I wrote them a letter and complained, and eventually they stopped calling me (it was everyday, sometimes twice a day and also at weekends,

completely unacceptable tactics for such a small sum of money).

 

I received a letter just yesterday to say they disagreed with me but would waiver the fee on this occasion as a goodwill gesture.

 

There are links to harassment letters which you can use, but ensure you wait a week or so and log the calls,

then write a letter and head it up 'Formal Complaint'.

 

Also ensure it is posted using a recorded service. Hope that helps and good luck!

 

Finally, you should always pay your invoices/debts in good time, however, I do not condone the tactics used by DCA's to further enhance one's money problems.

by the time you've sent recorded letters

 

those costs will be more than the £16!

 

ignore in these cases the dca totally
