Do the right thing
Handed Over for Prescribed Debt I received a call from some attorneys telling me they calling on behalf Vodacom regarding an account with Vodacom . I would like to state the following:
1. I had an Vodacom account that was closed in
3. From that date I have not had any communication from Vodacom with regards to any amounts owing to Vodacom .
4. Vodacom are to prove to me that I agreed to any amounts owed over the past 5 year, either telephonically or in writing.
5. I want to refer Vodacom to the National Credit Amendment Act, published 13 March 2015, prohibits the sale and collection of Prescribed Debt, which confirm the following:
a. The account has been dormant for more than 3 years, you can therefore by law not request any payment from me, pertaining to debt prior to that date. UNLESS I have agreed to do so within those 3 years, either verbally or in writing. Proof of this needs to be provided.
b. Unless, you can prove that this debt is not prescribed, with a signed confirmation from me.
c. I have made no payments to this account since I closed it in 2018
Please send me a prescription letter and updated my records on itc
Edcon (Edgars) are requested to remove my details and remove the claims of money owed against my name on their system and on any credit bureau, failing to do so, I will take legal action against Edcon for ******* practises in terms of the National Credit Act.
