10 yearsHonestly, Direct & Legal Collections are just an absolute farce. They’ve supposedly rung us twice this afternoon and, believe it or not, they had the audacity to wake us from our slumber! :) Their organisation is utterly shambolic, and frankly, they’re not even worth the effort to engage with. As for deterring them, I’m not quite certain how to go about it. But wouldn’t it be amusing if, whilst you were conversing with them, someone decided to let off a personal attack alarm inside your home?! :)Direct & Legal Collections10 yearsWe've been absolutely fed up with these incessant calls at all hours, disrupting our sleep and peace in the evenings. Honestly, these individuals are just incredibly rude and have crossed the line into harassment. Sure, we missed a payment; however, we promptly settled double the amount the very next month. Yet, they had the audacity to insist on raising our payments. Naturally, we turned them down, and they resorted to threats of legal action. In response, we penned them a letter outlining that we intended to stick to the original agreement of paying the specified amount weekly. Should they continue to be dissatisfied, we'd be ready to meet them in court. Now, we stick to our original monthly payments, and thankfully, they seem to have kept their distance ever since.11 yearsHas anyone got a clue about what company this might be? Whenever someone travels overseas, they often get calls like this. Those folks might want to reconsider bringing their mobiles, as we did, and with our provider, you end up paying for incoming calls while abroad. Even after we switched it off and removed the SIM card, we still lost all our credit! Quite the hassle, if you ask me.11 yearsWe've received multiple calls from this lot just before Christmas-three times in one day, and they've had the cheek to ring us thrice again earlier today! Each time we answered, only to be met with silence, so we ended up hanging up the phone. After having a chat with DLC, it's clear these callers are completely unhelpful and rather impolite. It's frustrating when you've arranged a debt repayment plan, and they keep trying to pressure you into paying more. I'd strongly advise reporting them; don’t allow them to intimidate you. It baffles us why they never respond when we pick up the phone. It all feels rather peculiar and, quite frankly, a total waste of time and resources!DLC11 yearsWe’ve been receiving calls from this number six times a day for the last three months! It’s quite infuriating, especially since we’ve already arranged a repayment plan with the company we owe the money to!11 yearsThis company seems to ring at any hour of the day, asking for personal information. Exercise caution!11 yearsDLC - straightforward and lawful collection methods.DLC11 yearsDLC keeps ringing us despite the agreement we’ve got in place with them. Like so many others, they seem intent on pressuring us for inflated payments. What really grinds our gears, though, is the debt we share with our former partner, who hasn't coughed up a single penny towards what is essentially a joint loan. We've provided them with her information on multiple occasions, yet they seem far more interested in pursuing us for the entire outstanding amount. It’s incredibly frustrating!DLC11 yearsI've had no response whatsoever. Cleared my account about six weeks back, so I can't be held accountable for their absolute failure in managing their admin tasks. As for their associated firms, they include Direct Auto Finance (also known as Yes Vehicle Credit) and Red Castel Recoveries.Direct Auto FinanceYes Vehicle CreditRed Castel Recoveries11 yearsJust keep dialling! We decided to ring the number back, and a recorded message told us we had received a call from DLC, along with another number to get in touch with. What we're really curious about is how these folks managed to get hold of our mobile number, considering it's a work phone that’s not registered under our name.DLC11 yearsThis number has called us three times over the span of just two days, but we chose not to answer.11 yearsThey keep calling at all hours, day and night, and never leave a message. Quite frustrating, really!12 yearsReceived a call at my workplace from this number (how on earth did they manage to get hold of it?) They were searching for someone named Peter, but with a surname that sounds rather like mine, and they claimed he resides at a totally different location. Honestly, the whole situation feels a bit dodgy; it appears these folks aren't quite on the ball with whatever it is they're supposed to be doing!Peter12 yearsWe've had dealings with these folks for a few years now. They bought up an old debt linked to my ex-wife, which we’re supposed to clear as a couple. After switching banks, they wouldn’t let us set up a direct debit with our new account. Honestly, they can take a hike, especially since we’re both out of work at the moment!12 yearsWe were utterly fed up with the incessant phone calls that kept disturbing our sleep. The audacity of these individuals to ring us at all hours was beyond irritating, verging on harassment. Although we fell behind on a payment for a brief period, we rectified this by settling double the amount the following month. Despite our efforts, these characters had the nerve to demand an increase in our payments. We stood firm in our decision not to comply, and they resorted to threats of legal proceedings. In response, we penned a letter clearly stating that we would stick to the original weekly payment plan, and if that didn’t please them, we would be more than willing to meet them in court. Since then, we’ve been consistent with our payments, and remarkably, they seem to have left us alone at last.12 yearsThis number seems to be persistent, calling at all hours without fail. We've never answered as it's a complete mystery to us. Turns out, it's linked to a debt collection agency. Do they not have any office hours, for goodness' sake?12 yearsI’ve had my fair share of hassle from 01280707291, which turns out to be a debt collection agency. They seem to have a knack for hounding folks for more money, despite existing payment plans. If you're in a similar bind, I'd strongly recommend seeking guidance from a debt management service or getting in touch with Citizens Advice. They can really help steer you in the right direction!Citizens Advice12 yearsIt turns out this is a debt recovery agency. I recommend heading over to the Consumer Action Group forums if you need some advice on tackling these folks. They’ve got plenty of resources that could be quite useful!Consumer Action Group12 yearsI keep receiving calls from individuals searching for someone who doesn’t reside at this address, and to top it off, they’ve got the wrong street entirely! It’s quite baffling, really.12 yearsI keep receiving letters and phone calls intended for someone else who shares my surname. It's a right nuisance! As soon as I raised my concerns, their behaviour turned quite rude and dismissive. It seems like they're merely trying to fish for personal information, and I reckon they ought to be shut down for good.12 yearsKeeps giving us a bell every couple of days, giving it a few attempts, but never bothers to drop a message. We don’t know the number, so we never bother responding. If it were truly urgent, surely they’d leave a note, wouldn’t they?13 yearsWe've received a call from a company associated with DLC debt. We chose not to pick up, but they left us a voicemail. Interestingly, while they mentioned their affiliation, they didn't specify who they were trying to reach. They also noted that their office hours run from 8 in the morning until half-past eight in the evening. Quite the peculiar communication, if you ask me!Submit Your Own Report (01280 707291)
