Not sure if I'm in the right place but would appreciate any advice with the following:
Lewis Debt Recovery have recently been in contact with me about a debt they have purchased from the Co-Op. The letter I received from them states that "before we can consider your offer of payment we require details of your weekly/monthly expenditure, together with documentary evidence of your income for which we enclose an income/expenditure form to fill in.
It is in your best interest to provide this information by return of post. If we do not hear from you, your account may be passed to our field agents who will arrange for a collector to call round personally to collect the debt.
Do not ignore this matter; further action will be taken if you fail to respond".
There are a couple of points I'd like to clarify:
Firstly, I have not been in touch with them to offer any payment
Secondly, am I correct in thinking that the only I&E form I would have to complete would be on the order of a judge?
Thirdly, should anyone turn up at the door, I deny them entry and contact the police (I have just reported receipt of this letter to them).
Thank you all in advance for your help. I am so thankful I found this forum and many people who understand my situation.
