Hi,
I have received a letter from debt collector Credit Style Limited without any name on it and not sure if it is a scam as I have contacted Green Network Energy to provide me bill by contacting them on phone and email and they keep saying that there is a backlog but seeing a debt collector letter with Green Network Energy name is confusing. I have provided further details below.
Received a claim? Yes/No: YES
Issue Date: 07/10/19
Have you Acknowledged the Claim?: Not Yet
Total Amount Claimed : Approx £400
Claimant’s Name: Credit Style Limited
Solicitors Firm:
Original Creditor: Green Network Energy
Original Debt (eg. Credit card/Loan/Overdraft) : Still awaiting response from Green Network Energy
Particulars of Claim: ( Please type out in full excluding names/account numbers/exact amounts ):
Is the debt Statute Barred (have you had any contact with the creditor or claimant over the last 6 years?):
List any letters you have sent (eg: CCA/ CPR ): None
Any Other Information or Background Details: My tenants moved out from property in Scotland at the end of April and new tenants moved in at the end of August. My new tenant wanted to change the utilties provider and asked me to update the previoius utilities provider with meter readings. I found out the name of Green Network Energy from my letting agent who advertised the property only and phoned them 12th September. They wouldn't take the meter readings on phone as they said it was long time ago and I said the meter readings for tenant moving in was taken just before the tenant moved in around 30th August but they said it is better if I send the proof of meter readings and to a provided email address. I sent an email on 15th September and attached copies of previous tenant moving out and new tenant's moving in inventory report which contained meter readings. I provided them with meter readings, days i should be responsible for bills, and my current address. I received an email saying that I will receive a response within 5 days and failing that I phoned them again and they said there is a backlog and I will receive a response within 5 days. I didn't receive any response so I reminded them on 29th September and got a standard reply that I will be contacted in 5 days. Today, my tenant informed me that he has received a letter from Credit Style Limited addressed to "The Occupier" for money to be collected. According to the readings with proof of pictures from inventory report and tenants readings there shouldn't be a lot of units burnt so I would have thought the bill would be around few pounds as the property must have been used for showing to the potential tenants and grass cutting but the above bill is definitely high. I wasn't sure if it is a scam as there is no name on the letter so I phoned Green Network Energy to get an update and asked if they can provide me status of my query that they had sent to me with property details withoug giving my name and they said "when are you moving in?" and I told them that I am awaiting the bill and they told me standard response that there is a backlog and they will contact me and I told them that why have I received the letter so they said that I must have received a bill. When I denied that I haven't received any bill that is when they disconnected the phone. I don't know what to do.
