       BW Legal Letter of Claim - unpaid water
   DIR By: DanF

       Have received a letter of claim from BW Legal with the threat of
       taking me to the county court over a debt to JC International
       Acquisition LLC.
       The amount is the same as a disputed bill I had with Thames
       Water dating from about five years ago. I calculated they owed
       me around £100 and they said I owed them £200 - it was part of a
       much larger billing error on their part for which they
       eventually admitted.
       About 18 months ago I had a phone conversation with them where I
       said if they would take the debt off my credit file I would pay
       the disputed amount as having a clear credit file was worth the
       money. They said I had to pay the amount and wouldn't take it
       off my credit file. As I had no incentive to pay them I didn't.
       A few months back the correspondence from JC started, along with
       phone calls which I've ignored - apart from one occasion where I
       tried to phone them back but they wouldn't let me speak to an
       account handler - just a payment bot.
       Am I right to think this is the same as the private parking
       letters and can be safely ignored?

       I realise this isn't the main subject of your query, but to
       avoid future issues, letters from solicitors acting on behalf of
       private parking companies cannot be safely ignored.
