Well then when i moved i still had a small amount outstanding to British Gas

 

I have now been contacted by a company called LCS on behalf of British Gas saying they have been instructed by there client to collect said amount

 

Who are LCS, are they British Gas and do they put on any collection fees uses

LCS is a debt recovery company that works for various utility companies, British gas, Scottish power Water companies etc.

 

I think they are called Leeds Collection Services.

 

It is my understanding that they cannot add fees for debt collection purposes.

Thanks citizen, it was only £20.00. I have just phoned British Gas and they were fine. They have recalled the debt from LCS and i have paid British Gas direct

 

They did say it was standard that they pass these accounts to LCS if the account goes more than 28 days overdue, yes 28 days and they get the debt collectors in
