Hi
2nd post, it gets more complicated!
the short version is can a company sell an account (reassign) if the account is disputed? They have failed to respond to issues raised which relate to their breach of contract or perhaps that the account was actually miss-sold. Whilst waiting for response I now have a letter from a debt purchase company to say they have now taken the account on,
( in the same envelope also letter from original company, same date advising transfer, very odd) conveniently from a date some time previous .
can initial company's liability be negated from breach/miss-sell by this manoeuvre, or is acquiring company now liable?
am I able to hold original company accountable in small claims court?
