Don't offer them a single penny and they WILL go away eventually. In fact their entire 'business' model is to install fear and pray that people make any kind of offer. There are v many numerous reasons why you are safe to ignore, but to start with the main one - if they had any legal right then do you really think they would be making 'offers'? They would've had you in court along time ago, they cant nor wont though.Comment

Did ETC have good experience in dealing with these types of cases? Also I can’t find them anywhere. Do they have a website?Comment

In the first instance they (ETC and WTT) are disputing the validity of the credentials of the claimers who are attempting to collect the loans, for many of us.
WTT are also very good in this area and are helping many of us.Comment

Felicitas Payment Day!!
Hoping someone replies:
Obviously in a pickle with the whole Darwin/IQ/Felicitas/Gladstone malarkey and today COP is when I either ignore or pay the 5% settlement fee offered.
I just like some sensible advice on...is this actually enforceable? When in fact in reality, it's money we all earned, paid Darwin/IQ and their is no real debt just a number on a spreadsheet we just got back less their fee. In the original documentation no interest was mentioned, no payment plan etc. Like everyone else its a bit of a stress.
Main Q - What is the right course of action here and why?Comment

EEK: Constructive relpy
Originally posted by eek View PostIt's a bit late in the day to be asking that question - you really needed someone like Etc or WTT to explain the options as no-one is going to do that on a public forum which Felicitas is known to read.Comment

Originally posted by Banana2020 View PostEek, Many thanks appreciate its last minute and in a stress like probably a few others who have little resources or capacity at present; hence running to deadline day. Appreciate the effort in the reply though something more constrictive would have been useful as regardless if Felictas (or whoever) are watching does it make a difference? Happy to hear what you feel is the right course of action.
Edit - to add while the Felicitas thread probably contains the complete picture it's possible that something is missing so you really do need WTT to ETC to reiterate the options and consequences of those options.Last edited by eek; 28 August 2020, 08:52.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
