  • Response to letter of claim

    Hi,

    I'm looking for some advice and next steps. I have received a letter before claim for a debt relating to business i was owned in 2017. The lease was mine from 01.08.17 to 01.11.17 when it was transferred as i sold it. As far as i am concerned i notified all creditors and paid all debts up to date before sale, however the utility company are chasing me.

    I responded to the letter of claim, by ticking box D (i dispute the debt) and box I to state i need a copy of the contract and full statement account. So i can determine if i am liable. I posted this signed delivery. Royal Mail confirms it has been signed for and delivered on 10.12.21. I also have a scanned copy of it.

    i have since received a letter stating "our records show that we haven't received a satisfactory response to the letter before claim issued by us or other correspondence". They are not saying they havent received it nor are they are saying why it is not satisfactory. Instead they just try and scare me with CCJ on your file, extra costs etc etc. I have rang them and they won't speak to me as i did not pass DPA. the date of birth they have does not match mine, but i can only give my correct date of birth. They suggested i guess which is ridiculous. I don't know what to do now, they gave me no solution or guidance on how to fix it. What should i do next?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Can you post up the response letter with your personal info redacted?

    I would recommend you keep everything in writing not it is a legal dispute, as you may need to rely on the correspondence as evidence and part of your defence. Suspect you will need to provide a more robust reply to that letter but will need to see what it says first.
    If you have a question about the voluntary termination process, please read this guide first, as it should have all the answers you need. Please do not hijack another person's thread as I will not respond to you
