Anyone any experience of this lot? Have very recently had a letter and two phone calls from Rossendales. Letter says that I owe nearly £800.00 - debt been transferred to them from a collections agency that ages and ages ago wrote to me about same alleged debt. But they offered very much smaller amounts to clear it.
Trouble is: 1) I feel for almost certain that I cleared the debt (I think it was goods bought 11 years ago and 2) it would be statute barred in any case because it was at least six years from the time of any last payment to when I first heard from this other agency.
We have moved house several times since then and I'm ashamed to say that I don't have all the records from a decade ago that I should .... but I'm not running away - I really believe it was paid off or that, if not, it was years until I heard from anyone.
I'm concerned about the calls - we are ex-dir so goodness knows how they got hold of the number. I don't acknowledge my identify - but next thing I know bailiffs will call round and an article in last weekend's Sunday Times portrayed this coming as very aggressive (and CEO, btw, earns in excess of £1m per year).
I haven't written. I should? This won't go away and I'm really worried!
