If you continue to ignore them, they can take legal action against you. You can contact them on this number 0113 323 1784 if you call from England and Wales or contact them via their website: www.bwlegal.co.uk/ Under the Limitation Act 1980, creditors have six years to track the majority of unsecured debts – and the period begins on the date of your last payment or confirmation of the debt. After this period, BW Legal cannot take legal action against you to enforce the debt. If you ignore their debt letters, things can get worse. But our guide is here to avoid that and help you get it right. Fraud! Be careful, this company deceives unsuspecting customers with money. I received today a letter from B W Legal, allegedly from British Gas, demanding £29.87 (note that the letter with the BG logo and such a strange amount looks very genuine). The scam is that they make you think you`re getting a good deal because they claim to reduce the amount if you “pay now”. I called British Gas and they confirmed to me that it was a scam to ignore it and throw away the letter.
British Gas is aware of the problem and should warn customers. Worrying – don`t be fooled! Debt collectors don`t just leave if you ignore them. To prevent debt collection agencies from contacting you, you must resolve the payment in some way. No, you cannot stop all of BW`s legal contacts as they may be required by law to send you letters. However, you can change your contact preferences, such as: manage your debts, express them in writing instead of receiving calls. You should stick to your preferences. Above, we discussed how debt can be “cancelled.” Now we will give tips on other ways to deal with BWlegal. You can cancel some debts, but you need to use the appropriate plan to do so. In England, Northern Ireland and Wales, an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) consolidates all your existing unsecured debts into one. You make a lower and affordable monthly repayment for a set period of time (usually 60 months), and then at the end of the term, all remaining debts are written off by law. Once the lawsuit has been filed, debtors can expect to receive notice directly from the court. If you do not respond to the official documents of the CCJ obtained from the district court, the judicial officers may be invited to go to your home.
In short, no, you shouldn`t legally ignore BW. Even if you don`t think parking fees are fair, you shouldn`t ignore a legal BW parking fine. If you ignore your debt with BW Legal, you have different approaches to choose from. In addition, BW Legal may send members of its agency to your home to try to collect your debts. Although they are not bailiffs, it can be a bit threatening. However, you have the right to refuse BW Legal from your home and ask them to contact you by letter or telephone. No, you should never just ignore a debt collector. BW Legal Services Limited, like any other debt collection agency, is committed to giving you some time to evaluate the different collection solutions so that you do not have to react immediately. If you ignore BW Legal, they are unlikely to simply forget what you owe.
You can send debt collectors to your home or even take the case to court in the hope that a county court judgment (CCJ) will be rendered against you. If this happens, the court will ask you to pay, and if you continue to ignore the situation, bailiffs can be sent to your address. For this reason, we recommend that you never ignore letters and calls from BWlegal. The best thing to do to prevent the court and bailiffs from intervening is to repay the debt as soon as possible. Until you get advice, the Code of Conduct, which includes BW Legal, means you should have time to explore your debt management options. Of course, they can`t do it if you don`t tell them what you`re doing. You can call the company at the BW Legal number: 0113 323 1784 or contact it through its website: www.bwlegal.co.uk/ Whatever action you take, doing nothing should not be an option. Ignored debts will not go away and they will get worse. Leave unopened letters long enough or calls unanswered and you risk BW Legal taking further action against you.
