Lowell Portfolio & TalkTalk

[Robanyone]

We had an account with TalkTalk a couple of years ago

- they were not very good but we sold our property and changed provider when we did.

At that time we sent letters to all the necessary service providers giving them the new address, final readings etc.

 

I had to write to TalkTalk twice as they maintained they never got the first advice

but as we had paid up to our final day and the property which we sold was being developed

(so no further usage was possible) we did not owe them anything.

 

We have heard no more (though I believe we got a final bill for £0.00 shortly afterwards)

until 10 days or so ago when a letter arrived from them saying

they had sold our "debt" of £185 odd to Lowell Portfolio.

 

Checking this company on line they appear to be bottom feeders of the worst sort

and I'm now getting texts saying they must speak with us urgently.

 

 

I have seen posts advising to definitely NOT speak with them, correspond ONLY by letter

and do not sign manually as they have been known to forge signatures.

 

How can I get these people off my back?

We left 2 years ago - June 10th 2014.

 

 

My old property was sold for development so there was no further usage.

They claimed at the time that they hadn't received our notice

but following phone calls and copy letters they sent us a refund for £42 odd.

.. We thought that was an end to it.

 

Tried to call them but can only get through to robot who will not put you through to a human

unless you give it your home telephone number - which no longer exists...

 

 

. I've written today again copying all the old correspondence in the hope that they will cancel I

t but have no great hopes. If they have sold on the debt they may have no further interest in the matter...
