Hi All I posted this time last week about the very same companies. I used the advice given in previous posts and have written to both of them staing that i wanted everything in writing and advised that all calls especially to my place of work were to cease or i would take further action against them for harrassment. Surprise surprise i haven't had a call for over a week now. i was advised on the forum that i didn't even have to give them a phone number, so i have now changed mobile numbers and await their correspondence. Good luck

i have to go fro one of these next week after a ban of a year for drink driving. I was stopped after stupidly driving when one of my friends took ill..no excuses though i shouldn't have driven, knee jerk reaction. I am now very worried about this medical as i have heard lots of different reports about how if the blood test comes back stating stuff wrong with your liver they will not allow you your licence back. I am not a heavy drinker nor do i have an alchohol problem, but worried just the same. has anybody had experience of these medicals??

Thanks for that Godmother i will check it out and see dates. What does SB mean ?? I am in Scotland by the way. Thanks again.

Thanks Scabhunter, thats all i needed to know. The guy Mr Amin (made up name i think!) tried to assure me that i had to provide a telephone number like it was a legal requirment. This is a debt from Welcome Finance from 2003 and defaulted in - for reasons not worth going into - 2005. How would i stand with the six year thingy ??

Quick question...do i have to give a contact number to debt collectors. I am being continually called at work by HFO and now Turnbull Rutherford Solicitors. I have just come of the phone after a wasted 10 mins of the guy continually butting - despite several requests to put everything in writing as i am in an open office. i have had to change my mobile number already and share a house in which the number is ex dir. Any help gratefully appreciated.
