Hi guys, I received a letter from Lowell last November stating that I owed £300. I was 100% sure that I didn't owe money to anyone (sold my house to pay my debts off & start afresh 2 years earlier - best move I ever made ). I asked Lowell for proof that I owed the money. The guy on the phone laughed, but said he'd sort it. I heard nothing until June this year when I noticed that Lowell had logged the £300 debt on my credit record. The following morning I received a letter from Red Collection agency demanding the money or they would take court action. I rang them, explained that I knew they were the same company & again asked for proof of the debt. After trying to get me to pay a settlement figure, she agreed to send me the proof, although it could take up to 3 months. It's now been nearly a year since I originally asked for proof and the 3 month time frame set in June has gone. They obviously can't prove I owe this mysterious debt, yet I have it logged on my credit report. Can they do this? Can I get it removed?
Thanks in advance for any advice

Originally posted by michael View PostActually it was the other way round. The other company reps (Vodaphone in particular) have been able to sort out problems where OP's had been banging their heads against a brick wall for months. However a DCA is completely different and allowing Lowell to post in an official capacity was one of the most stupid decision ever.
The problem with that is pretty soon they become a part of running the agenda AND often those shat upon by these firms want to let off steam & now they can't, well they can but they'll almost certainly be cabotted. Much better to maintain clear demarcation lines between them & us that way everyone knows where they are
Don't & you just become another often misguided debt counseling service

Re: CAG has had an almighty 'upgrade'
I must agree with you all.
Since all the changes on CAG, I have not a clue to be honest and I seem to get lost, yet I am the dizzy one afterall i suppose...... lol.
Anyway for that reason I have not bothered posting over there for a good while now, yet have browsed but cannot get my head around it all.
A great lay out here, you know where you are at all times and its straight forward, so credit to the LB website, well done!
So glad to be back. X
Oh Turbo and must thank you for that too, cheers honey X

Turbs, I agree 100% with you that this is a well laid out website.
I think CAG's site is hopeless from a user-friendly perspective. Its one of the reasons why I don't go on CAG for advice as much as I used to (that, and the adverts, plus heavy-handed mods with no sense of humour and also crossing the occasional arrogant twerp on CAG who thinks they're God and know their "onions" (they sometimes stray across!)).Last edited by The Debt Star; 28th October 2010, 14:32:PM.

I have also received the newsletter, which included the following:

Official Customer Service Reps on CAG
There are now a few Customer Service Representatives who, with the approval of the site Admin, have been helping to solve complaints and problems that individual posters are encountering with their companies. Their User names, highlighted in a bold green font, makes it clear who they are.
With one outstanding exception, they have been extremely useful in acheiving results to the poster's satisfaction. We welcome input on the forums from any company reps who are prepared to enter into a meaningful dialogue with their customers and genuinely want to help resolve customer complaints.
So well done and a thumbs up to Aviva, Vauxhall and Vodaphone and a not so well done and thumbs down to Lowell Financial.[Quote]
At least it is a 'thumbs down' to Lowell!
