Another company asking for money on a dedt that is over 8 years old

[sealion]

Good evening to all at Legal Beagles, we have just moved house, and the last letter we received from a debt collection agency was over 5 years ago, the actual debt is over 10 years old, they seemed to have picked up on our house move, now we are getting letters offering us a discount from £10,950 down to £2,500 if we pay with in 10 days, we have received 2 letters from them which we just recycled, I have no intention of contacting them in any manner, any advice would be appreciated, Kind Regards Sealion.

Was your last payment or acknowledgement over 6 six years ago? Looks like their chancing their arm by offering that discount thinking you would be stupid enough to think its a good deal.

If it were me I would send a non-acknowledgement letter stating that it is now SB etc., if this is the case. Hopefully this will stop them bothering you.

Thank you Amethyst, the debt is over 13 years old so I will just throw the letters in the bin, they will get fed up before I do, Kind Regards Sealion.
