  • Claim for Received - IND/Welcome/Hagarty

    Hello everyone. Im hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction as I am panicking and Losing sleep over the below. This is really affecting my work and my personal relationships and I really don't know what to do.

    Following on from my earlier thread http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...-Court-Action)

    To summerise, on the 4th July, I received a letter from IND (Dated 17th June) titled "LAST LETTER BEFORE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS". This was the first letter I have ever received from them.

    The letter stated that I have an outstanding debt with Welcome Finance of £3845 and I have until the 1st July to respond before they refer this to court.

    It would appear that they sent the letter after the deadline date.

    I sent an email to Welcome and IND on the 4th to ask for more information on this debt but didn't get a response to either. I then sent a CCA letter to IND on 8th July and then, as advised, I sent a Prove it letter to IND on 11th July.

    Today I came home to a claim form from Northampton County Court for a total amount of £5010.

    I have never received anything in the form of statements or a breakdown of the debt. Just a letter with the above amount from IND.

    I had a loan with Welcome many years ago. I couldn't even tell you when I last made a payment or how much the loan was for. I do know that there was PPI involved though. I'm positive about that.

    I looked back over my credit file and there is nothing on there about Welcome Finance now but I have an archived Credit report that shows the debt with them as settled in 2007. This was removed from my credit file in December 2012 as it was older that 6 years.

    I don't expect help with this but any advice would be very much appreciated.

    Than you in advance.

    Did you get any response to any of these? Can you tell us a bit more about the history of this debt? :typing:

    Can post up the particulars of claim here? hoto:

    You have 14 days (+ 5 allowed for service) to acknowledge the claim. If you tick the box saying you intend to defend in full, that should give you a further 14 days to prepare your defence. :clock:

    Once you've acknowledged, you need to send a CPR 31.14 request for documents mentioned on the particulars of claim.

    You can send a CPR part 18 for information.

    This could have been because the debt was sold to a DCA...

      Firstly. Thank you very much for your detailed reply. I have been losing hope over the weekend. I cant help feeling that I should be enjoying the sun, rather than worrying about this.

      I havent had a response from IND or Welcome since the first letter, entitled "Last Letter Before Legal Action". they have received both the CCA and the Prove it, but nothing.

      I got a loan in 2005/2006 from Welcome. I cant remember how much for or what the repayments were. I split with my partner in 2007 and fell on some hard times as all the debt we had accrued was in my name so she took no responsibility.

      From there, I had many debts that sort of spiraled out of control they all just seem to be a massive jumble of numbers and pound signs. If this is legitimate and I do owe, It would be uncharacteristic of me to just dodge it as I have taken huge steps to clear everything over the past couple of years.

      It just seems odd that after all these years, I get no communication then the first letter I receive is titled "Last Letter".

      I am at work until 5.30 but I will get all the claim info on here as soon as I get home.


      Thanks again.
