About three weeks ago i owed ebay £10 but they had set the dogs on me - namely IQOR

Now I am not desputing this debt and until that date everything was ok

I paid the £10 into their account via their bank giro slip

Two weeks later they started harrassing me, I contacted them (you should never phone a debt recovery agent) and basically told that I had paid and had proof and pointed out what my next actions were to be

After they had made sixteen calls to me! it was sorted and they paid the £10 into my paypal account!!?? I queried this but was told in an email to pay the £10 ebay devt with it which i did

The following monday IQOR withdrew £10 from my paypal account.
I of course complained to IQOR and Paypal

IQor sent me a snotty email saying that they did not take the money as it is against the law for them to do so

Paypal sent me an email saying that they did. lol

So I complained to paypal and told them what my next actions would be, after two calls from paypal the have washed there hands of it. lol They have restored the balance of my account and given me another tenner as a good will gesture.

Iqor have said sorry and want to close the case but I am billing them for my phone calls plus I think they should offer some compo after all they did break the law

Anyway guys sorry for my long post / rant and a big thanks to Mark with his post about debt -

Sorry, I was trying to find out what IQOR actually stands for. Googled it and by all accounts the firm's initials should stand for Intelligence Quotient Over Rated.

Other people seem to have suffered a bad experience from them too.

Mark has a thread about dealing with Debt recovery agents

You should never contact them on the phone

But if you are 100% in the right then its good entertainment

Many "debt recovery agents" are just parasites who purchase "debts" from a company or other such complainant and try to harrass them into paying. They pay a nominal sum to "take over the debt" and have a system of electronic letters. Many people have been driven to suicide by their hard-handed tactics. I recently had a run-in with virginmedia who quoted me one price and charged me almost double!! I disconnected their hub and box and told them to come and pick it up in a fortnight or I would chuck it in the bin. It's now in the bin!! They referred me to a "debt collection agency" I told the debt collection agency to eff off. Haven't heard a thing since. Fight fire with fire!! These people are parasitic scumbags!!

Totally agree , the thing I find funny is that they sent me a snotty email saying that they did not take the money because its against the law. Then when I sent them a copy of paypals email the "hsit" hit the fan. very entertaining
