    Aplins Solicitors - don't recognise debt - lizjohn

    Hi folks,

    Just joined so apologies if this is not the way to get a question answered?
    I had financial difficulties about 10 years ago took out a voluntary agreement to satisify creditors - about a year later I sold a house and repaid the outstanding debts. I have been debt free for well over 6 years now and have checked my credit history recently which now shows a good credit record. However I occasionally get 'fishing' expeditions from debt collection companies threatening legal action over alleged debts - normally in the same name as myself but have safely ignored these as being fraudulent. However I have now received a letter from an organsiation calling themselves APLINS Solicitors threatening to obtain a charging order for an alleged debt to Hillsden Securities Ltd (another debt collection agency) on my home. The debt in question is for £3552.65 which I do not recognise or accept is mine - what can I or should I do about it? Up to now I have ignored letters of this kind - any help greatefully received - John

    Hiya, I have moved your post to your own thread, just to make things simpler for finding and responding to the questions.

    First thing to do is send them a prove it letter, which you can find ~~~ Consumer Credit Agreements - A Guide ~~~~ inc. Letters - Legal Beagles Consumer Forum -have a read of the thread too - request a copy of the agreement, and evidence they are entitled to collect on it, whilst not acknowledging the debt in any way.

    Any support I provide is offered without liability, if you are unsure please seek professional legal guidance.

      Sounds like someone's having a



      Mind you Hillsdens are well known for their Fantasies

      Fire off a simple Prove It, as Ame says, for now and see what it turns up.
      Better to start quietly before hitting them with the BIG GUNS

          In fact DON'T send anything but the Prove It for now.
          Saves on possible confusion
