The above energy company went bust a couple of years ago, I owed them a sum of money to settle the account, I was contacted by Barratt Smith Brown who said they had bought the debt, I wasn't entirely convinced about them but agreed to pay it off in 12 monthly instalments.
The last payment was made just before Christmas but two days before they sent an email saying I could defer payment if I was struggling to pay, I paid it anyway, so ending the direct debits.
I got an email today from them saying they bought another debt from me to Igloo for around £370.00 and as I hadn't answered their correspondence on this matter they have instructed their legal team to apply for a county court judgement allowing them to basically send the bailiffs in.
I certainly didn't owe this money, I have a statement that says clearly what was owed and I had no correspondence from BSB since the agreement 12 months ago apart from the email asking if I wanted to defer payment.
My gut feeling is that they are trying it on and I should ignore them.
Does anyone have any other advice, and has anyone had any dealings with BSB?
