If you've received a letter of claim Use the reply form to: say you disagree you owe the debt. tell your creditor you're getting debt advice and have an appointment - say you'll need longer than 30 days. ask for more information from your creditor - for example, an account statement or copy of the credit agreement.
Even if that's the case, it's important not to ignore letters or communications from DRP. Tempting as it is, ignoring your debt problems won't make them go away. The longer you ignore your debts, the worse they get, especially if the creditor begins to apply interest fees and charges.
