SD from Hamptons Legal old Barclaycard 'debt'

[BRIGADIER2JCS]

Sorry for delay, here is their threat when i was a day late.

Bl**dy nonsense delusions of great power me thinks!!

As Brig says, empty threat. But they are deliberately misleading you regarding the true legal situation: they can only add or recover costs IF they take you to court and win. This letter suggests that costs will be added whatever – that is a lie, so please complain and send a copy of this letter to the FCA.

 

What is the balance now? You said it was nearly paid off. If so, they cannot continue with bankruptcy proceedings for an amount below £750, so another possible big fib.

The original debt has been paid off. I am now paying their "costs" which would, at the moment be over £750, but only by about £300.

 

I will certainly complain now to the FCA.

Can they issue a stat demand for their costs

Can they issue a stat demand for their costs

 

If they are not able to claim these charges back to me in the first place then surely not?

[AndyOrch]

You can issue a Stat Demand for any debt providing its above £750...whether they are entitled is for you to challenge it.

[DonkeyB]

The costs debt accrued or was agreed AFTER the SD was issued, was it not? I don’t think they can combine the subsequent costs into the original petition – that would need a new SD.

 

However, they may simply claim you have paid off the costs first and that the primary debt remains over £750.

So, after paying these fleecers the money in full

 

 

i get another demand for more money for the same BC account.

 

 

I cannot express how frustrated, angry and absolutely astounded at their business ethics and genaral morals.

 

 

How can this be possibly be legal?

If you have settled, then write back with a complaint.

 

Who has written to you ?

[riply88]

Lowells. Its for a couple of hundred pounds with a once in a lifetime offer of half that amount if i settle quickly. I will certainly write back.

muppets ignore them

 

 

they've taken you for a mug

and to be quite honest

as you didn't defend the org SD again and again

you cant blame them really.

neither should have ever started paying them...

they've no enforceable CCA as far as we've seen.
