I'd expect that the first DD will be on or about 1 June. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bob Arctor   11 #7 Posted May 14, 2018 Fun fact: if you are in arrears then set up a payment plan and then pay more than you agreed, they summons you to court and add costs. They are hopeless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Guest   #9 Posted May 15, 2018 Trying to get in touch on the phone is hopeless as well. 10 mins + on a queue...then you finally get through and they say they'll transfer you to another department....which doesn't answer in 5 seconds so just drops you right back to when you rang up and have to sit in a queue again.

Bob Arctor   11 #10 Posted May 15, 2018 And any judge in the land would throw the case out if you have proof a payment plan was agreed to and you were sticking to it.  Well of course, but that's not really the point. Costs would be incurred and SCC would have to pay them - because someone over-paid. And that's not even going into the utter incompetence that leads to the summons in the first place.

Guest   #11 Posted May 15, 2018 I paid my rent for years manually over the phone every week until I set up a direct debit. The downside was I no longer had the free Christmas week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
