Hello and Welcome to CAG.

 

Can you tell us a little more history of the debt you have with SKY and Vanquish please.

 

What was your problem with SKY, how much do they say you owe?

 

You NEVER EVER ring a powerless debt collection agency (DCA) EVER, you MUST keep all of your communications in writing or email, so you then have a paper trail of evidence.

 

If they do somehow manage to find a contact number for you and they ring you, then laugh and hang up, repeat until they send you one of their foolish begging letters.

 

What exactly, does this letter say?

 

And just for some reassurance, YOU are in control of this NOT some tin pot powerless DCA.

Who ever heard of someone getting a job at the Jobcentre? The unemployed are sent there as penance for their sins, not to help them find work!

provident fresh start was a spoof loan system

started several years ago by the provi group

when they started buying old lemon debts.

 

 

they offer you an interest free loan to pay off a supposed old debt

they now own that no-one else will touch with a bargepole

 

 

ignore them totally

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 had sky a few years ago and apparently i owe £350 for early termination,thing is i dont remember anything about when i stopped etc part of my memory problems :( anyway i got letter saying they'd been trying to contact me and couldnt and sky sold my debt to them they keep repeatedly ringing my old number trying to get hold of me,it says they are friendly bla bla and we can come to a suitable arrangement to pay it off or it will effect my credit score which scares me because ive worked so hard to try and start rebuilding my credit score and i dont want to lose all that,i cant scan letter because i dont have a scanner or printer etc

OK, if it's been sold to these clowns, then it 'may' already be on your credit file, is there anyway you can check your credit file?

If you ignore then you can't get conned, it isn't legit, no DCA is legit anyway, they're just out to rip you off and pay money you don't owe.

The ONLY thing you need to entertain and take notice of is a 'Letter before action' and a court summons/claim, if you receive either then come back for advice.

 

Until then and IMO I would ignore these.

Can I ask if this was a Sky credit card, or something to do with their television services?

OK, I am dealing with a sky credit card debt, and I am given to understand that all records for these have been destroyed, so we are on a bit of a winner, but the DCA thinks that there is still mileage in it, they never learn, do they!
