I agree debt Collection is 1 of if not the biggest business earner in the UK but by law the dirty bleeps have no rights to do 90% of the things they get away with lol
They can't because it happened to me - I started getting letters for a debt from over 10 years. I phoned a debt advice agency and they said "Don't reply because over 10 years they can't make you pay if there has been no correspondence about the debt in that time. They said if you reply then the debt company who bought the debt have leverage to demand payment." I ignored it and the letters stopped.
