Got a letter posted through my door with a card saying call this number 01512075399 and ask for Chris White. Anyone know what this is for?

Hi,
I received the same today, I contacted the number and it is regarding an age old debt I have with 'EGG', their client Activ Capital are following it through...hope this helps

Hello, I also had a card from this morning, rang and the person I spoke to was very helpfull, its turns out there were trying to confirm my address details for a client of theirs regarding an account ive got with egg, nothing sinister about them at all

debt collection agency ...... posted a card through the door requesting i call them urgently .... yeah right.... lol.

these names like chris white
chris black
pratt white
testicle green

are just code names so they know what you are calling about -- these companies have been referred to by recipients of their phone calls typically by such names as  "scum"  "low-life". Such companies  buy debts for 12 pence in the pound and try to get full whack from you

there is a website out there called
consumeractiongroup.co.uk

which will show you how to deal with matters if one needs help

pffft code names indeed, how dare you sir!!

Hi
 I got a card through my door from this number did call only trouble is I've been in an iva for 3yrs so what they going to do

You may be surprised to know that these calls are criminal offences !!  They are breaches of the Telecommunication Act 1984 (as amended)  & the Harassment Act  2000  (as amended)   Here is the relevant section ot the TA 1984 (AA)

(cf. Sec. 43. Improper use of public telecommunications system. (1) A person who – (b) sends by those means, for the purpose of causing …needless anxiety to another… persistently makes use for that purpose of a public telecommunication system, shall be guilty of an offence…)

The general public is ignorant of this law,

Send them a recorded letter stating you do not want them to call and they are legally obliged to remove your telephone number .  Invite them to write  but but not call


Here is the basis of a letter you can plagiarise –

Telecommunication act 1984 (as amended)

Any person(s) calling or trying to contact xxxxxxxxxxxxx via the telephone either into his private residence, office or mobile telephone for the purposes of  “collecting” monies or investigating his private finances or for any purposes will and have been in de facto breach of the Telecommunication act 1984 (as amended) Section 43. 1 (b), and are committing a prima facie criminal offence attracting a £5000 fine or 6 months imprisonment, on the grounds that it is unnecessary, causes anxiety and is a pointless waste of time.


After this notification any further calls (including his place of work) WILL be reported to the police with an insistence via the duty inspector of the reporting police station that a crime report is initiated against that company and subsequently the individual making the call.( you will need a list of times and tel.nos -with mobiles this is easy ) Sadly the police will tell you this is a civil matter -its not - stand your ground and insist a crime report is initiated - take this print out with you

The purpose of this notification is not only to stop further calls to xxxxxxxxxxxx but also to draw the attention to the institutions who persistently use this method to “bully” people into making payments and hence cause unnecessary anxiety, that they are committing a prima facie criminal offence.

This offence is both de facto and prima facie by the Acts wording (cf. Sec. 43. Improper use of public telecommunications system. (1) A person who – (b) sends by those means, for the purpose of causing …needless anxiety to another… persistently makes use for that purpose of a public telecommunication system, shall be guilty of an offence…)
The general public is ignorant of this law, and how to pursue it.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, his family and commercial colleagues are not!
>>>>>>>>>>You can always change you telephone number !Good luck

My neighbours have recieved calls on a fishing expedition to locate me. Unfortunately they gave out my details. Ask your neighbours to deny all knowledge of you. This is low life debt companies seeking monies for old debt! My debt was paid and is now out of age!!!

Got a card from these cowboys the other day so I rang them, they refused to give me any details, the snotty very scouse lady said they have hundreds of clients, the card was very poorly written, hung up and binned the card, these people are the lowest of the low, my advice would be ignore all cards from them.

Had this open post card through the door:

Please call Chris white on 0151 207 5399 quoting the ref No.

Thank you for your co-operation.

(Please note this is not a sales related matter)

This is probably from an old Cabot debt that has been passed on. As stated above, it breaches the Telecommunication Act 1984 and should be reported to Trading Standards, the OFT and the police.

Got a card this morning asking me to call Chris White and quote a reference number, do these people think we're stupid? Idiots

these people are a waste of space trying to earn money out of someone elses misfortune these are just scum bags and the lowest of the low

I just called them and explain that I have researched them on the web and that I feel the matter is about an old debt. I went on to say that I doubt very much they are in receipt of the original contract, that 3rd parties have no right to a contract that they were not originally part of and that they have no legal rights to pursue this matter nor collect monies from me. I said if they continue I would report them!

End of the matter for me!
