Recently I was sacked from Wescot, because I refused to rip people off for debts that they clearly did not owe. I am in no doubt that the company is run in a disgusting and unprofessional manner, and being sacked is definitely a blessing in disguise. Unfortunately, I cannot suggest a surefire way to get one over the horrible bastards, but I have a few tips. 1. when you get the letter through, say that the property you have only moved into the property in the last month, give a false name, and state that the previous occupants (who is really you if you are the one on the letter)emigrated/died/moved away. Give a false forwarding address if you like 2. when applying for anything and filling out forms, only fill in the details that are absolutely mandatory. then they have as little info as poss to trace you with. 3. if you truly are not liable, let them take it to court, if you are innocent, and can prove it, there will be nothing that they can do. 4. keep all proof and receipts, and even old tenancy agreements. some of wescot's favoutite debts relate to gas/electricity supply. 5. when getting a settlement they will generally be able to knock 15- 20% off the debt (it used to be 75%!!!)so go for as much as you can.(posted 7353 days ago)Not sure if this will help anyone... but just want to do my bit to bring the company down.
