cap quest debt purchased from Vodafone

[Millsands]

hi,

received a letter today from capquest

final letter before action debt is for 203.58

and i think it relates to something from 2009..

 

they are saying they will pass the matter to thier pre litigation dept

and through the process they will seek an order of the court directing me to pay monies outstanding

and then they will under the order of the court send bailiffs to levy goods..

 

letter is attached might not be very clear as taken on my mobile phone any advice or help please

 

regards

Yep - ignore. I sorted some of these out for my son, you'll notice there is no other paperwork with the letter and no proof whatsoever that you have ever owed a penny.

 

You could send them a 'send proof and I will look or shut up' letter.

 

Whichever way you handle this, it wont disappear until it's done the rounds with a few other numpty-try-there-luck companies who it gets passed on to so they can have a go.

here is a better quality scanned version of the letter

How many letters have your received in total or is this the first one?

this is the 3rd one first one said something like we belive you are the person named, second one said there was a 50% discount and now this one.. had a lot of issues in my life in the past 3 years including moving house etc so forgot all about this

[Conniff]

It's pure phishing, nothing else.

 

'I think you are .... now give me some money'

 

Hmm, that didn't work - ok

 

'I'll see if I can tempt you to respond by offering you a 50% discount on something I don't know you own'.

 

Hmm again, this silence is hurting my ears.

 

'I'll send a court threat and see if that will get you talking, I'll also add lots of nasties like talking about bailiffs and entering your home and see if I can frighten you into talking'.

 

Hmmm - Nothing, perhaps it isn't them after all or they have emigrated or died or something, ah well, I'll sell this on to some other mug company and get something out of it.

 

Some call this harassment, I call it 'demanding money with menaces', they are actually threatening you with something and they haven't even confirmed if you are that person or if you live there. I see no difference in this than some complete stranger grabbing you by the scruff of the neck and saying 'my son lent you a tenner and I want it back'.

 

This action must be reported to the oft.

You say you think it's from something from 2009... is it something you don't believe you owe? This will have a nasty stain on your credit file if it is something you dispute.

They could of passed it to me for pre-litigation proceedure, fancy actions in their threatograms, ignore

[Millsands]
