User reported 01903 641 295 as Harassing
This is CABOT, they use multiple numbers their favourite being 0344 647 0029. They will make your life miserable, constantly calling from random numbers and in my case / opinion chasing minimal and legally unenforceable debts well over 10 years old. I hope the government shuts this company down once and for all as soon as possible, protecting everyone who is extremely sick or struggling financially. There is a very fine line between chasing a debt and harassing sick and vulnerable people daily who have no ability to pay. After over 10 years of harassment I am now involving my local MP. Goodbye Cabot

Sad, pathetic little scammers

It’s been over 2 and a half years since they threatened me with court action to recover an already statute barred debt and are still trying their sad little scam. Not taken me to court. But are still sending their begging emails trying to get me to pay a nonexistent debt.

What are you waiting for Cabot? Just show the court the proof of the debt. You know the proof that you have refused to show me and expect me to you just take your word that it exists. We both know why, don’t we?

Not even debt collectors if there is no debt to pay, simply scammers and beggars. Your emails have no more weight than the ones I get from Nigeria telling me there is a box of cash waiting at an airport from the United Bank of the World. Do you want paying in Steam vouchers as well?

No sorry, you are worse as the 411 scammers are not subject to the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, whose rules you break on a daily basis.

Helpful and Transparent

Update:

The issue was resolved.

I recently contacted Cabot Financial regarding an issue with how information is being reported on my credit file.

Although the situation itself is still ongoing and depends on the original creditor, I was genuinely impressed with how clearly and honestly Cabot explained their position. They took the time to walk me through why they are unable to amend the data themselves and how the reporting process works between creditors.

It was refreshing to speak to someone who didn’t just give a scripted response, but instead provided a clear and transparent explanation of what is happening and what needs to happen next.

While the outcome isn’t resolved yet, I do appreciate the level of communication and professionalism shown.

I was so relieved and thankful for Satnam, he was very calm and kind in explaining the situation to me. I struggle with a few medical conditions that make these situations very difficult, and it was made a lot simpler by having such an excellent communicator at the other end of the phone. Thank you Satnam for all of your help

I had defaulted on payments and after explaining my circumstances I was given a 30 day hold on my account. Agent was incredibly understanding and just lovely without being over friendly. Perfect. Nobody should be scared to answer their phone with agents like this.

I Cleared my account expected a letter saying account closed thank you. They are quick enough to send letters if you miss a payment and bombard you with phone calls.
They say they informed me 8 days after I cleared my account that is news to me I received nothing from them.

Account Statments

Only issue I have is that you dont let people know how they are doing ie no statment to ket you know how much you still owe or how much you have paid. Its important that people know this. I had no idea that my account was clear until i saw the email.

Update on my case

Update on my case. Having asked Cabot for proof of debt they have still failed to disclose. Failure to disclose evidence is a criminal offence. The harassment I have received is a criminal offence. The invasion of privacy is a criminal offence. After asking Halifax for proof off them selling my debt onto Cabot they have no proof of this even through their data paperwork they have provided to me. Aaron Jones has failed to provide me with proof and has subsequently passed this on to their sister company Mortimer Clark solicitors, they contacted me in an attempt to recover the debt. After asking Mortimer Clark for proof they sent Emily Leon to investigate the case and provide me with proof. Emily Leon has now investigated my case 3 times and still failed to provide proof. I asked for the full proof of debt on many occasions with reference to my case but have received nothing. Emily Leon in her correspondence said she was concerned about my mental health and therefore passed my case on to a welfare dept under Director Nick Fogarty, he stated that the request for data would take about a month before I would get a reply. In the meantime Emily Leon has now sent me another letter stating that they will continue to recover the debt. Good luck. After making payments through pressuring harassment bullying saying you legally own the debt I’ve stupidly have been paying for the past 14 years. I have come to the conclusion that after disputing this case it should be heard in a criminal court not a county court as harassment, obtaining money by deception and invasion of privacy, breach of the data law. I have been advised to report this case to the police and when I get my crime reference number, even if the police do not act on this I can proceed through parliament through the media and social media in an attempt to close this company. Let’s hope all the victims of Cabot financial Ltd have their day. And that all those who have Cabot financial Ltd on their CV suffer from karma and that when they fall into financial debt suffer like we have. CEO Sean Webb from an former NI veteran my answer to you and your company is (No Surrender).
