Hi Guys,
Had an old O2 account and started getting letters from Lowell regarding an outstanding debt. Lowell purchased this debt from o2 a few years ago. i contacted 02 and they have no record of this debt. I was thinking of SAR ing O2. and have told Lowell this. This is a defaulted account on my credit file from Lowell not 02 i have never had a letter from Lowell telling me they were going to default my account.....This is the response from them
