Re: being taken to court...for £4.38...??
Ignoring demanding letters is not the best way forward Glasgow guy even if they are not addressed to you personally.
You might be better retrieving the letter from the bin and replying to it although it does sound like a con.
If it is land rent that you owe you should have known about it when you bought the house and had details of how and when to pay the rent.
In any case if you owe money to someone they have to prove it and must make attempts to collect BEFORE putting the issue in the hands of some debt collecting agency. A debt collector’s letter out of the blue like that could be classed as harassment and that is not allowed by law.
I would write back and demand irrefutable proof that you owe £4.38 and keep a copy of the letter.
