Hi,

My son has had a number of threatening letters regarding a '3 ' phone contract,

 

they(lowells) reckon he owes £446,

 

he said the debt was originally for £90, they have obviously sold it on to 'Lowells'.

 

He has just had a letter saying they will half the bill if he pays it all at once,

but I think they will only take it in instalments for the full balance!

 

He is worried it will affect him getting a mortgage,

he says 3 did not replace the phone he states was damaged.

 

Any advice?

 

Should he offer to pay the reduced amount in instalments?

 

 

Cheers

if they are offering a discount

that means something is wrong with the debt.

 

is this already on his cra file?

Hi, finally got the report, it says

 

"lowells portfolio" the balance is £466 but the default balance is only for £92 !

 

Surely that is an unfair charge? 300% more!

 

As they dont specify who it is (i know its 3)

 

do they know i did have an ongoing dispute with them?

 

Seems they took over the debt without knowing the full score!
