Should I phone a firm who is no longer involved?

from Matt (Mattyc@ntlworld.com)
As part of my saga I have been sent letters that are supposed to mean that 'contact' was made in 1998 and not after 11/2/00. I have asked why they kept writing when it would have been obvious I did not live at the address and what happened to the letters (returned I presume).

Two of these letters were sent by a firm of solicitors in Manchester (Michael Taylor and Co) the last one saying that in 72 hours they were starting county court proceedings.

What I am thinking is that as they are out of the picture - another firm is now in contact - I will phone them to ask:

1) Did they take court action 2) What happened when the letters were returned 3) Why did they write again when letters were returned 4) What did they tell the Debt company about not being able to contact me 5) Can they please send me copies of all letters in the file as I need them for a court case - using discovery.

What I am hoping is that they can back up the story of 'contact' not being made by these old letters none of which I ever knew about. I am confident on the phone and have no worries about them trying to turn the tables on me.

What do people think and has anyone tried this before?
