We have received a letter from Solicitors acting onbhalf of Triton Credit Services with regards to a debt which we believe to be statute barred. the letter is as follows: "We are instructed by our client, Triton Credit Services, who are instructed by The Royal Bank of Scotland plc in connection with the above liability. We understand that, despite formal demand for repayment, the above amount remains unpaid and we are likly to be instructed to commence court proceedings against you, without further notice. Howerever, bewfore we commence these proceedings, you have one final opportunity to make payment of the above amount within the next seven days. Please make cheques payable to Triton Credit Services and send them to our client, details we confirm below. Should our client not receive payment or acceptable proposals within seven days, it can only be assumed that you will not settle this matter on amicable and reasonable terms. We are then likly to be instructed to commence court proceedings against you on our clients behalf." this is not the first letter received, there was one back in September in which the reply we sent is below. to which we received nothing until the above letter. " September 30, 2011 Triton Credit Services PO Box 5827 Basildon SS14 1XS Without prejudice I do not acknowledge any debt to you or any other company or organisation that you claim to be representing. Dear Sir/Madam Account No: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX You have contacted me regarding the account with the above reference number, which you claim is owed by myself. I would point out that we have no knowledge of any such debt being owed to The Royal Bank of Scotland We are familiar with the ‘Office of Fair Trading Debt Collection Guidance’ which states that it is unfair to send demands for payment to an individual when it is uncertain that they are the debtor in question. We would also point out that the OFT say under the Guidance that it is unfair to pursue third parties for payment when they are not liable. In not ceasing collection activity whilst investigating a reasonably queried or disputed debt you are using deceptive/and or unfair methods. Furthermore, ignoring and/or disregarding claims that debts have been settled or are disputed and continuing to make unjustified demands for payment amounts to physical/psychological harassment. We would further note that based on the information you have supplied, this account would also be statute barred under the Limitation Act 1980 Under the Limitation Act 1980 Section 5 "an action founded on simple contract shall not be brought after the expiration of six years from the date on which the cause of action accrued". I would also point out that the OFT say under their Debt Collection Guidance on statute barred debt that "it is unfair to pursue the debt if the debtor has heard nothing from the creditor during the relevant limitation period". Furthermore that the OFT Debt Collection Guidance states further that "continuing to press for payment after a debtor has stated that they will not be paying a debt because it is statute barred could amount to harassment contrary to section 40 (1) of the Administration of Justice Act 1970". We would ask that no further contact be made concerning the above accounts unless you can provide evidence of both: (1) proof of my liability regarding this debt. and (2) payment or written contact from me in the relevant period under Section 5 of the Limitation Act. We await your written confirmation that this matter is now closed. Otherwise we will have no option but to make a complaint to the trading standards department and consider informing the OFT of your actions. I look forward to your reply. Yours faithfully" could anyone advise on the letter to respond with. Many Thanks
