Do I have to give DCA my employers adress

[carriesue]

DCA has now accepted token payments.

They have sent me a budget form to fill in.

 

Am I obliged to give them details of my employment i.e employers name/address etc.

I am concerned that they will attempt to contact me there.

 

Many Thanks

just pay them what you want to and tell them that's is what they are going to get even a £1. per month if you are strapped?

 

but give actual details on here who DCA for what? when taken out? amount alledged ?CCA1974 for what was it signed etc do not pay a DCA if there can be a dispute, without proper info the peeps cannot advise on your situation, some so called DCAs fleece people due to their lack of knowledge. they threaten all sorts but have no powers?

 

Personal information only a court can order details!

I agree. Tell them you have worked out what you can afford. If you send in a budget form they will criticize what your spending and will next be asking for copies of bills and wage slips. They have no legal right to any of this information and providing employee details is a big no no.

 

In fact I wouldn't be paying them anything yet. Provide more details of the debt so you can receive more in depth advice from the good people on CAG.

 

What type of debt is this, when was it taken out, whose the creditor?

It seems a bit daft to send the I&E form out after accepting the token payments.

 

No, you do not have to provide them with your employment details.

Send the budget summary and offer of payment. leave it at that.

DCA are not allowed to contact work if they do report them ... anyway as said best thing to do is just send them your I.E with relevant info but NO bank satements or the like ...IF THE DONT ACCEPT TRY A FREE DMP cOMPANY TO HELP YOU ...MEANWHILE SEND THEM WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD ...as said have you done the CCA1974 cos they wont like that if you do .

[renegadeimp]

If you gave them your employers information as contact info, then yes they can call. But they MUST stop as and when you tell them to stop. No if's, ands or buts from them.

 

My advice would be to send them a basic budget summary along with your offer of payment. That is providing of course that they have fulfilled a CCA request before. Even if they have done that, you should check the legitimacy of the debt, as well as reclaiming any penalty charges and insurances before you even consider paying them.

 

 

Also, to the OP, you still havent answered the questions posed in posts #2 and #6.
