I would be really grateful if I could get some advice please.
I received a letter three months ago from Lowell financial debt collection saying I owe 563.67 to 3 Mobile services for a contract where I apparently terminated the service early and therefore I owe a termination fee. This bill is from 2012 and I have had no contact from 3 mobile from that period till date stating I know this amount.
Also, I have no recollection of owing this money and certainly would not have ended a contract where there was a termination fee of such an amount.
I requested a copy of this bill from Lowell and they sent me a breakdown of it on 3 headed paper.
I also sent them letter 1 of the 3 letter process. They have replied to that letter stating:
>Lowell Portfolio I Ltd purchased your account from the original creditor in 3/2016
>Formal notice of this assignment was provided to you by letter dated 5/5/2016 which complies with the requirements of section 136 of the Law of Property Act 1925
>That this is not an assignment under the provisions of the Bills of Exchange Act 1882
>That we do are not acting agents for the original creditor or any other third party

'''''''''Could you please advise where I stand and what my next step should be. I am sure I do not owe this money and would also question why it has taken them so long to chase me about it. Any help would be much appreciated...
