LCS or First Locate and EDF

[zebedy1967]

I keep getting phone calls from a company calling thenselves LCS stating that i owe EDF energy £45 from 2011/2012

 

Im 100% certain i have paid EDF l but cant provide proof as i dont keep receipts for that amount of time so they keep on phoning me demanding payment.

I keep telling them im not paying the bill twice, there response is EDF can recall this debt at any time so we will keep phoning you until the debt is paid.

 

The last time they phoned i told them i would only deal with them in writing so they sent me a letter that arived on friday offering a settlement - without prejudice reducing the amount to £35. I have 10 days to reply oras stated in the letter they will instigate formal legal proceedings against me that will incur charges

 

They phoned me again today but i wouldnt go through the identity check so they hung up

 

Should i just pay it again as i cant provide proof that i have already paid this bill or what other options do i have

 

Thanks

Stop talking to them on the phone and report them. You've been marked as gullible as you are believing them.

I didnt speak to them again as i said. so i guess i just tell them to go away then,

thanks for your help much appreciated

Make a formal complaint to EDF & the FCA regarding the use of tin pot DCA's harassing you.

Make sure you tell EDF that if their puerile third party clowns LCS continue, then you will

report them both for the criminal offence of harassment.
