Direct Legal Debt Collection Agency and
the Truth About Your Debt

You should always ensure that you know whether the debt collector
has purchased the debt themselves as a means of turning a profit (in
the role of a debt purchaser) or if they are carrying out recovery work
on behalf of a client such as a bank. If a letter of assignment has
been sent, which is legally required if the account has been sold, then
you will know the debt collecting firm or DCA owns the account and will
try to extort as much out of you as they can. When dealing with Direct
Legal and Collections debt collection agency remember that every penny
the debt agency gets is profit as they bought the debt outright for
a song. So they will try to get you any way they can.
Always deal with these debt collecting firms by post. Do not give
out your telephone number. The problem is during the first call they
make they'll say they are the credit card company or bank and make you
more obliged to become complicit in what they say. They want you to
be as unaware of the facts as possible, so they like to create as much
confusion as they can: here is where Direct Legal and Collections debt
collection agency will have greatest effect. When they get hold of this
information they will use this to pester you, even to frighten you.
You can use the law to prevent this but most people don't know which
laws to use and how well the debt purchasing firms will use this to
their own advantage. Organisations like the CCCS (Consumer Credit Counselling
Service) and the CAB (Citizen's Advice Bureau) are there to help but
often they are overburdened so there are times when their advice may
be incomplete.
It is an option to call into question the validity of the amount owed
or indeed the existence of the account itself by making a SAR (or Subject
Access Request) in response to Direct Legal and Collections debt collection
agency. The owner of the account (the bank or the debt collection company)
is obliged to send you a true copy of your original credit agreement
with the bank if the agreement was signed before 6 April 2007. If they
fail to do this they are in breach of the Consumer Credit Act 1974,
and the alleged debt is said to be in dispute. While the alleged debt
is in dispute they must not ask for payment (if they do so they are
in breach of the law) and they must not sell it on (which many do nevertheless
at this stage). While this situation exists it is said to be unenforceable,
even by a judge. There's a series of pre-written letters available for
use. If you want you can always get a solicitor to do this for you,
due to the difficulty of the law at certain points. There are also specialist
legal and paralegal firms who have expertise in this area.
If you are struggling with Direct Legal and Collections debt collection
agency you can be reassured that a lot of the actions that they are
using to distress you are illegal or border on the unlawful. The debt
collectors involved appear under little or no obligation, or so it might
appear, to do anything about improving their behaviour until ordered
to by the Office of Fair Trading.

So ask Direct Legal Debt Collection Agency
for a copy of the original contract when you took out your loan or credit
card.
Even better, start
an unenforceable
credit agreement application here. If you want to check, in addition,
missold PPI and recover all the credit card charges you've paid over
the last 6 years (plus 8% interest) it costs an upfront fee of only
£99 for a full audit to see what you're entitled to. Click
