Lowell ignore evidence and hassle you

I keep getting emails, phone calls and text messages about a debt I owe regarding telecommunications. I remember contacting the telecommunications company I had two scams on my name O2, and Vodaphone I reported it to them with a police reference to prove this is a scam. I already had a contract phone at the time so, how can I have two contracts on my name? The telecommunications ignored my evidence and passed it to the debt collector Lowell. I again reported it to Lowell letting them know this was a scam and gave them all the details. I have advised Lowell back in 2017 and 2021. The agent at Lowell closed the case with all the given evidence. They reopened the case to show they contacted me in 2021 case and on the 06th may 2024 that they’ve spoken to me with an outstanding debt of £3000 I owe. This is showing on my credit report as missed payment. I do not owe them nothing and why do I need to pay something I never owed?
Lowell cannot be bothered to look at the evidence given they keep hassling me and giving me a hard time over this scam. I believe Lowell are scammers themselves and want to take money from people who are victims of a scam.

I was heard up when I saw EE on BBCnews having to compensate customers for the many scams and I think that Lowell should put in a claim as they have clearly been scamed by EE as well.i think EEshould be closed down permanently.

Refusal to update credit company's

They are refusing to update my credit file to satisfactory after wiping off my debts. This is law that any sattisfied balance should be updated on a credit file. Christopher charman

Hi Christopher,

Thanks for getting back in touch.

When a customer defaults on a debt, their credit file shows the details for six years from the date of the default.

And that’s why the default continues to show on a customer’s credit file, regardless of our goodwill gesture.

As a regulated financial company, we have a legal duty to report correct information about our customers’ credit files to the credit reference agencies. You can find more information about credit files in our credit file https://www.lowell.co.uk/help-and-support/faqs/credit-file/.

Thanks,

Good morning Htin,

I am sorry to hear you haven't had a great experience.

Before we purchase a debt extensive due diligence is completed.

If a customer felt there was a discrepancy on their account, please be assured we're here to work with them and ensure we get to the bottom of it.

The easiest way to raise your concerns is online at https://www.lowell.co.uk/complaints-process/complaints/. You only need a few details like the reference number you provided and contact details.

Also, an easy way to contact us is through Live Chat. You’ll need to register with us first using your Lowell reference number, which you’ll find in the top-right corner of the letters we’ve sent you. It only takes a couple of minutes, then you can use the Live Chat instead of calling us.

Please get in touch via the preferred method and one of our friendly advisors will be more than happy to help.

Thanks,
Ana

Lowell closed my accounts and are now…

Lowell closed my accounts and are now incorrectly reporting to credit agencies. I have now asked each credit agency to get this removed from my credit file as the accounts are now closed. If this isn’t still removed I will be going to complain to financial ombudsman as the data is being reported incorrectly. If I could get this company zero stars I would they have affected my mental health.

Hello Tans,

Thank you for getting back in touch.

The accounts have been closed as a gesture of goodwill based on your circumstances. The defaults associated with the accounts have been placed on your credit file by the original clients where they will remain for 6 years from the default date. We would not look to remove any defaults as we are obliged to provide an accurate and true record of your credit history.

I hope this gives you some clarity on the matter.

Kind regards,
Ana




Good morning Tans,

I am sorry to hear you haven't had a great experience.

Once a default has been registered on a customers credit file, it will remain there for up to six years. When customer takes steps to clear their debt, we'll ensure all payments are reflected on their credit file within 30-50days. Then once the account has been paid in full, we'll update the credit reference agencies and ensure the default also states it has been satisfied.

To support you with your concerns and investigate the matter I've sent you a direct message.

Kind regards,
Ana

These people are vultures

I recently received a collection correspondence for a utility bill which I have no knowledge of owing as I have lived outside of the UK for over 10 years and have had to pay any bills for 12 years. I have contacted the company to inform them that this isn't enforceable, also that I didn't enter any agreement with this company to make any type of payment to them so I will not be paying them. They are requesting proof of identity from me which I refuse as I have provided my name, customer number and the amount and the utility providers name. Under Under the Limitation Act 1980, debts of this age are typically considered ‘statute-barred’, meaning that they are not enforceable through the court system. As such, I am under no obligation to repay this debt, nor am I required to provide any further personal information. I have informed them that Continued contact on this issue will be considered harassment, which is against the principles of fair and transparent data use under the Data Protection Act 2018 and GDPR. They have responded to say that they will continue to contact me and they are obliged to continue to tell me the next steps that they will take. These companies are disgusting. They have no morals and do not care about people, they are only interested in money. Ana I read that you deal with buying the debts and therefore you should be aware that people are not obliged to pay you as they have not entered contract with your company to make any kind of payment.

Good morning Teresa,

I'm sorry to hear this.

Before we purchase a debt extensive due diligence is completed. However, if a customer had any form of dispute regarding the validity of the debt, we're here to listen and work with them regarding the matter.

Although our customers don't actively choose us, within the terms and conditions agreed when opening the account it will state that the matter can be passed to debt purchaser/collector if those terms and conditions are broken. Once an account has been assigned to us, we can offer lots of affordable and flexible solutions to help them manage their debt realistically.

I'd like to take this opportunity to work with you and ensure we get to the bottom of this. You will shortly receive a message from Trustpilot asking you to provide further information so we can get in touch with you to support you further.

I hope to hear back from you.

Kind regards,

I would not give this company any stars the worst lying corrupt company that i have ever met in my entire life. I hope with me now getting Solicitors involved their company can finally get closed down. They have accused me and Vanquis which they are corrupt as well of owing on my credit card which i don’t as i paid it and so did my dad before i died but guess this they are now wanting the full balance of my credit card even though i have the proof that i have paid it. I also sent the payments to Vanquis to proof that it had been paid and reported it to the Financial Ombudsman and that guy sided with Lowell so was corrupt as well. I now have Solicitors involved and taking legal action and it took me over three years to proof that i didn’t owe my CCJ now finally got it as satisfied but guess who bought it yes Lowell you got it first time. Lowell are so corrupt it is unbelievable.

I have been advising my disabled son about this company, who have been relentlessly chasing him for an alleged debt to O2 , even though O2 have confirmed that he is not liable as he was a victim of fraud. Lowell have been sent copies of written confirmation from 02 to this effect yet still they pursue and harass him.
Incredibly both limited companies listed on Lowell’s letterhead have been subject to compulsory strike off orders, yet they still act for O2. The letterhead refers to Lowell Portfolio I, which is in default of its obligations . Only Lowell Portfolio IV (which isn’t mentioned on their letterhead) is up to date at Companies House, though it is dormant, and was served notice of compulsory strike off before it submitted up to date accounts.They make false claims on their their website. Sadly the laxity of our laws allow the Directors to carry on like this.

For over a year I got automated phone…

For over a year I got automated phone calls for a random name that has never lived at my address. The caller didn't say who they were but googling the numbers gave me Lowell.

Blocking the calls didn't work I still got messages on my answer machine. I reported them to various agencies and they eventually stopped.

Now I'm getting letters for another name, for a debt that was originally owed to EE. Again for someone who doesn't live at my address. This first came up years ago with another recovery agency who apologised and said my address would be removed from their records. It looks like the debt has been sold again and now these clowns have it.

I'd contact them but looking at their reviews that would be a bad idea. I'm not giving them any more of my details than they already have. I know what would happen if I did this.

The debt is for a massive fifty quid I wonder how much Lowell paid for it?
I've sent their latest letter, which have got more threatening, back to them "not known at this address". I somehow doubt that will be the end of it.

I guess they send thousands of these letters and make thousands of these calls hoping some receivers will pay up to get them off their back. I don't know how their workers can sleep at night.

The template replies on here are funny to read though. The pretence that they only harass their "customers" because they are there to help them is so pathetic it's beyond laughable. They only care about getting money by any means. If the person they are harassing isn't the right person, well who cares, as long as somebody pays. What a shocking way to run a business.

Geting letters from these clowns as…

Geting letters from these clowns as well as from Overdales saying I owe a debt I have never heard of dating back to 2015. They claim to have sent the details of the debt (I have no debts, I have never used credit or had a loan etc so I know I have no debts) but the date they say to have started the claim/CCJ is from 2019 and was sent 1 month after a moved home to my old address. Convenient That. I Have left a review for Overdales and will not be providing any further evidence to Lowells either (Overdales review has been confirmed, this is the same thing so must also be confirmed unless the Overdales one is false, which I will be happy to show anybody coming to my door) as I know that if I wait just 1 more year the time limit for getting the debt will be over and the debt (that does not exist) will be written off. I have severe mental health issues, one of which is I am diagnosed as having ASPD (Sociopath) amongst other things. Keep sending the letters and wasting money and trees, I do not mind and shall just continue returning to sender. But you are not going to get a penny from me for something that is nothing to do with me.
I am giving no more information to you con artists, that would just be foolish of myself and I am Definitely not giving over ANY contact information so I can be hounded another way for a debt that doesn't exist. I have already provided evidence to make the Overdales review verified and this is for the exact same non existent debt. I shall wait the year out and get it written off. But if this review gets removed because Lowells believes it to be fake then I shall happily show it to anybody they send as proof they shouldn't be there (why would you send people to get something you admit to be fake?)
