Lewis Group Debt Collecting Agency and
the Truth About Your Debt

Certainly, it is true that some debt collection companies are far
worse than others. Some DCAs routinely deal in sending off tentative
letters telling people that they owe some money when they know full
well that they owe nothing at all. This works for these debt collection
firms for the reason that they know perfectly well that a small proportion
of scared people will give in to their threats although they know that
they have bo debts at all. Many of these debt collectors purchase information
about lists of debts which are often more than 6 years old to try and
profit from them. This is totally against the law. They are known as
Statute Barred debts, and they cannot be legally enforced.
Always insist on dealing with these debt collection firms in writing.
Don't give out any phone numbers. The trouble is in the first instance
they will say they are calling from the bank and make you feel obliged
to comply. For them, your confusion or uncertainty is important, and
they wish to create as much confusion as they can: here is where Lewis
Group debt collecting agency will have the most devastating effect.
As soon as they get hold of your details they will use it to worry you,
even to frighten you. The law is there to stop them but the problem
is that most people don't know which laws to use and it is all too apparent
that these debt collecting firms know this and will use it to their
advantage. Public organisations like the Consumer Credit Counselling
Service (CCCS) and the Citizen's Advice Bureau (CAB) are fantastic although
sometimes they are overstretched and sometimes such advice is incomplete.
They might ask you for your mobile phone number if you have one. But
you should not give your number out to them. Because if they have it
they may pester you wherever you are any time they want to. They will
continue to do this even if you tell them to stop, so put it in writing,
and preferably send the letter by recorded delivery so that it is signed
for at the other end. A few debt purchasing firms will even contact
the people who live next door to you and ask them if they know anything
about your debt. Some may even tell your kids that you are bad or threaten
this, hoping to make a bigger profit. All of these agencies are driven
by greed and so their sales force know that they have to reach their
targets. All these activities are illegal, yet the law seems to be indifferent
for some reason. Dealing with Lewis Group debt collecting agency can
be very stressful indeed.
It is best to ensure that you know whether or not the debt collection
agency has purchased the debt for themselves as a means of making money
or whether they are trading on behalf of a client company such as a
credit card company or a bank (where they would pocket a percentage
of recovered funds). If you are sent a letter of assignment, which is
required when the account has been sold wholesale, then you know that
the debt collecting company is the owner of the debt and will try to
extort as much out of you as he is able. When dealing with Lewis Group
debt collecting agency bear in mind that almost everything the collections
agency gets is profit. So he will try to break you any way he can.

card.
