Re: Allied international calling constantly

are there templates for these letters which i can use as i am concerned about not putting enough in the letters or more importantly putting to much which may land me in trouble.

Yes, sorry, I thought I'd posted up the links, here you go:

• Telephone harassment letter: http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...om+harrassment
• Prove it letter: http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...835#post478835
• SAR letter: http://www.legalbeagles.info/forums/...123#post565123

Only the SAR letter which is sent separately to the original lender requires a fee (£10). Send the two envelopes recorded delivery. :thumb:

Re: Allied international calling constantly

Thanks again Flaming parrot, the information has helped me immensely as i thought all this was a lost cause and i didnt know where to start in dealing with it, you have put my mind at ease as i now feel i have some form of direction to address the situation. Regarding the harassment letter template, is there a more simple version of this as the one you provided mentions payments which does not apply to me as i am actually questioning the debt in question and if i used the template you have provided could that be classed as an acknowledgement of the debt or would you just suggest editing the template. I have also searched online for templates but im worried i use one which uses laws which dont apply to the uk.

Re: Allied international calling constantly

The template letters are just that, templates, a bit like the ones that come with Word if you see what I mean, meant to give you a starting point but they need adjusting to suit particular circumstances. The letter could be amended to something like this, where any specific mention of the debt or payments has been removed. The bit in red may or may not apply depending on whether you've already asked them to stop calling you or you just refuse to answer/go through security/hang up. :thumb:

Dear Sirs

DATE

I am writing to place you on notice that your company is causing me alarm and distress due to the frequency of the telephone calls which I am receiving, both at home and at my place of work. Whenever the telephone rings, I am left feeling anxious and ill at the prospect of speaking again with your company. Please be clear that these calls are far beyond a simple irritation or an unwanted interference, they fall clearly within the definition of Harassment. The calls at my place of work also have the potential to affect my employment.

[I have asked for these calls to cease however I have been told by your staff that they will continue to telephone me even though I have made it clear that I do not wish to discuss this matter further via the telephone.]

I have received calls from …………………… On the following dates:
1)
2)
3)
(cont’d overleaf if required)

I require you to ensure that the recordings of these calls are secured and protected and above all must not be deleted, erased or tampered with as they will be key evidence in a claim which I am preparing to bring against your company. Destruction of these records may lead to contempt of court proceedings being brought against you.

I require these calls to cease with immediate effect; I will not discuss any matters with your company by telephone. I draw your attention to the Court of Appeal ruling in Roberts v Bank of Scotland PLC (Rev1) [2013] EWCA Civ 882.

I require you to confirm by return that you have secured and protected the recordings of the calls detailed above, I also require you to confirm that these calls will cease with immediate effect. Relevant numbers to remove from your system are listed below.

If you persist in telephoning me, I will issue an application for an injunction under The Protection from Harassment Act 1997 and I shall also seek damages for the same on the principles laid down in Roberts v Bank of Scotland [2013].

I trust you will treat this as a matter of extreme urgency.

Yours sincerely XXXXXX
