Mass complaint ;Add your name here if a dca has acted incorrectly with your account.

so many to choose from but lets have Newlyns for claiming to have visited my property on numerous occasions to deliver letters. Calling daily despite being told not to adding huge charges to the debt when they were only entitled to charge a fee once.

 

Thanks to you CAG guys I was able to get them off my back by writing to my council.

 

I have more but cannot remember all details companies were Lowells, Capquest, Wescotts, GBDR

 

worse than all these is Welcome Finance (yes I know they are not a DCA)

 

cheers

Erm... Marlin...for the reasons which were exposed in the documentary.

 

enough said.

How about APEX writing on behalf of Halifax (re a disputed debt) saying they had made an enquiry to The Land Registry where we have confirmed that you are the current owner of *******(my partner's house). Lies Lies Lies. They say "It is our intention to consider litigation action against you to obtain a County Court Judgment and then secure the overdue balance against your financial interest in this property by way of a Charging Order Application." Shame it's not my property!!! Used CPR 31.16 as they were threatening legal action and section 7(1) of the Data Protection Act. Guess what? They've sent the usual standard terms and copy contract - no signature.

eos solutions split the balance of 1 freemans account into 4 and sold a portion to weightmans & threatening me with the other balances.

 

Their is only one account so why has it been split up.

[sillygirl1]

They can't do the splitting of a claim, you need to report them to the Financial Services Ombudsman and the OFT, report Weightmans too as they should know better....

[FlyboyAgain]

Moorcroft debiting money - supposedly with my wife's verbal agreement - from an unknown source and using this unsanctioned transaction to set against one of her unenforceable accounts. Anybody heard of THIS tactic?

Another way is sue the original dca for your costs. Ie letter writing etc and sue them. This works.

Good morning...

 

CONGRATULATIONS - A LOT OF EFFORT, BUT WORTH IT....

 

SOMETHING WE SHOULD ALL TRY WITH ALL OF THE BANKS I THINK - ANY COMMENTS ANYONE???

 

By the way, why don't we ALL join together and consider a possible 'Class Action' against these 'repeat offenders'. This action would surely result in Criminal proceedings being bought against those responsible for their own behaviour, and of course that of of their staff!!

 

See 'FRAUD ACT 2006' - some good posts on this.......

 

As always

 

 

Best wishes

Credit Security Ltd for ignoring my letter stating I had no intention of entertaining any doorstep calls yet their agent came knocking 3 times (all ignored). Relentless calls to a mobile number (all ignored) now calls to work. Letter regarding calls now sent. Lets see if these muppets can understand it!

[HardYards]

Lowell Financial for sending harassing letters despite accepting and receiving, on time, a token payment; also trying to get my new telephone number from my son, who is a minor

[ben1305]

How about robinscum way (sorry i mean robinson) for harrassing phone calls from 8 am til 9pm several times a day.

Also for obtaining ccj against me at my former address knowing i dont live there anymore.

Gotta try n get it set aside now.

[mabski]

hfo india for phoning me four times every night for 2 weeks after i requested that they only contact me in writing and asking them for written proof that the debt was mine as well as the guy calling me a professional debtor

and

1st credit for repeatedly contacting me in work by phone and letter after i again requested that all correspondance should be by letter to my home address and refusing to stop their activities even when i told them the debt was in dispute

[maxmum]

my nationwide cashbuilder card was taken by the hole in the wall

the customer service girl in nw tried to find out what was going on only to discover my account had a no withdrawal order slammed on it because of arrears on a nw creditcard account, she told me nationwide hadnt done it but kpr debt collectors had! are they allowed to do this or is it illegal.

[joe1965]

I would suggest starting your own thread in the relevant area of the forums.

[maxmum]

yes when i get the hang of this site

[mrmarmite]

It's not the DCA's that need to be booted up the backside it's OFT and FOS that does as they not doing their job,

 

oh soz I forgot most of em are ex-bankers so you won't get anywhere, I have a letter from them "Claiming to be inpartial"

 

My comment "pfffffft like hell you are"

I'm not sure a DCA is allowed to do that! AFIU, it's only the bank that can shunt money from one account to another. Go and speak to you Nationwide branch right away and get that sorted! These people will try and leave you with no money to live on but they are not allowed to do that! They have to leave you with enought to cover all your outgoings - all of them - and enought to live on! Somebody posted about this back in August but I can't remember the thread.

 

HAve you started your own thread?

[Desperate Daniella]

Hi Flyboy,

 

I don't know if you mean my posting as I've put information on this subject on a couple of threads.

 

Some (most?) banks will have in the small print of their agreements that they can offset outstanding credit card debts against other accounts, or just take money from your one and only account if it is seen as disposable income.

 

The Financial Ombudsman Service is very clear about "disposable" income. You must be allowed to pay your mortgage or rent, the council tax, tv licence, utility bills, travel to work expenses, and other essentials. You are also allowed to eat and feed your children if you have any. Your bank may not care about taking the food out of your mouth, but thankfully FOS does!

 

You are not obliged to make any of these payments by direct debit or standing order just to make it easier for the bank to assess your "disposable" income. They may ask you to prove that you have these expenses, but I have only ever been asked to fax a copy of my mortgage statement once - and I went to their nearest branch and got them to do it so there was no cost as I haven't got a fax myself.

 

The first time the bank did it I called the FOS immediately and got the money back the same day. They've tried it three times this year and always refunded immediately I've said "Financial Ombudsman Service." The FOS will give you a reference number and a direct line to someone in customer complaints who will actually deal with it.

 

The bank will want you to use DDs or SOs. If any of these are unpaid because you have no money in your account the bank will return them and charge you for doing so. This is what I have explained to the FOS and the bank. It's quite clear from my account that there are no DDs/SOs for any of the things I have mentioned above but it does show debit card payments for them on various dates when money has come in.

 

I'd call the FOS first thing tomorrow, and then call the Nationwide with the reference number they give you.

 

Good luck.

You can also open a basic bank account somewhere else and start using that instead.

[bugsy123]

wescott lying to me making me send proof that a debt someone took out in my name at an old address wasnt mine. they said I had to prove it or i would be hiding something!

 

Also HFO services for failing to send me a credit agreement when cca'd then passing the debt onto roxburghe to collect. At the same address may I add!!

[doubledebts]

Bucnannon Clark & Wells, bombarding me with letters for an old Orange debt, now somehow they have got my mobile number!!! How dare they phone me and where did they get my mobile number!! I told them never to call me again and to correspond in writing only and terminated the call!!! So Rude. If they call again I will sent the harassment letter.

 

Thanks to this site and MSE I know know my rights!!
