Hi,

we used to use BG when we lived in our previous property which we left over 3 years ago.

 

At that time we had pre-paid meters and were paying some arrears to BG

 

. Today Lowell have contacted us with £3,600 owed - first contact in 4-5 years.

 

They state that my IVA failed.

Yes it did- about 3 years ago due to HB being bought by FJ and no contact from FJ...any suggestions?

 

Many thanks in advance.

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...

so officially you've not informed the (was) iva company you have moved, so thus non of the debts owners being paid thru the IVA were informed either?

so what seems to have transpired is HB signed you upto this debt with lowells was it at the time of the IVA?

 

there is noway BG would have sold a legit debt on of this level for <10p=£1 to a debt buyer if it were real.

 

sorry but i think you got had from day one.

and ofcourse HB got a backhander from each debt they signed you upto and used most of your payments as their fees too.

Blimey! Well HB IVA went to Freeman Jones who contacted me once and when I explained everything never responded...despite several emails to them and calls.

 

What so you suggest? Really appreciate your help and replies.

It should really serve to emphasise that IVA’s, contrary to the way they are presented, should have a government health warning.
