Just a coincidence?

It seems that my debts have caught up with me in the same week, could it be a coincidence?
Monday - letter from O2 confirming they know where I live
Tuesday - visit from NPower
Wednesday - phonecall from British Gas followed by a phonecall from New Look (classy me)
Thursday - bated breath
Friday - visit from TV licensing

WTF? Coincidence or extremely bad luck?
I know its my fault so not seeking sympathy but feel there's something amiss that they've all got in touch at the same time after months of silence!

A debt agency must have been doing their homework.
Time to organise your finances.

Nope, not coincidence.

Like scurry says, someone's been doing their homework and has made a connection- your credit record has probably been updated with a 'linked address' type thing

Do you have a plan about what you're going to do?

Have you moved and just appeared on the electoral register? It's not coincidence a link has been made somewhere somehow.
