Could copy & paste the majority of reviews also my case replicates the same approach. I have received letter on behalf of Thames Water claiming roughly £500 for supply period I had moved out (2019 - 2020 years). No evidence of supplier charges / bills, no evidence of any rights for the claim. Letter signed by alleged Rebecca Carter, whose credentials missing, totally out of the blue / fake identity. I wonder how's possible they're out there scamming on behalf of EDF, Thames Water et cetera relentless & untouchable??

This disgusting company send letters demanding payments for debts which do not exist! Do not give them any details or money!! It's amazing these types of horrendous companies are allowed to operate.

Got bill for preious tenant at an address lived at over 2 yrs ago and got told by lCS that i lived there for 3 years and that the meters were not pay as you go with scottish power had told them they were prepayment meters got asked for proof and i told them to check with scottish power. Vantia was religiously abusive to me on the phone and then i threatened to kill myself she was not intersted and then rang back a couple of days later only to be told by charlie that it was MY bill whihc it was not and then i threatedned with suicide. At this point i was sectioned for 10 years and have autism. Told both Vanita and charlie this but were not interested. Contacted stuart winifred whom claiam to send me a letters via email and responded over a week and a half no response rnag back on saturday 27/02/21 only to be told it was vanita and at no point did she say it was being dealt with but she then claimed it had been returned to scottish power. No communicitons to say this i had filed a complaint through resolver and tall they do is send a generic message please contact us via ouor web page. ill be getting the press na dmy mental and legal solicitor aware.

Criminals chasing non existant British gas debts, looked into this company and they are clearly non ethical group of scammers scaring the uneducated into paying debts they have no right to pursue, I have reported them to the financial ombudsman this is who can punish these creeps, I urge everyone to report them to the FOS so this criminal behaviour is investigated.

LCS are trying to get paid for debt that you don't owe. Neither to them nor to the company they are "recovering" it for. Just trying to sponge anyone they can reach. Ignore the communication and look online how to deal with such companies in the matter that they can understand. Talking to them on the phone produces zero results.

We passed an EDF Energy bill to our landlord agency to sort out as we did not owe most of the amount on the bill.
The agency never did because they're useless, and soon enough we got LCS letters.
The letter was addressed to MR *my name* despite the fact I'm a woman. They stated we owed the full bill so I called to dispute this. The woman (who was actually nice to talk to and understood what I was saying) who answered told us to send proof of our living period in the form of our tenancy agreement and that they would sort it out with EDF and the agency (who I gave the details for).
I received another letter about my "Final Notice" before advising legal proceedings. I rang up, they lied and said they tried to call and sent 3 letters. They never called me, I only ever called them and they only sent 2 letters, one notification and one final notice. The woman doubled down and said that they did and when I came back with the same thing she then retracted back saying "she wasn't sure what happened then" maybe listen to people in the first place?

The woman offered to log a "expression of dissatisfaction" and when I further complained she said that they can offer a resettlement of £27. I told her that I won't pay any amount to them as I will be contacting EDF myself. It seemed no amount of explaining why we don't owe the full amount and how they were supposed to sort that out got through their heads!

They don't listen, they sound scammy and they are completely and utterly incompetent.

I will be requesting a clearance of my data from LCS as I do not trust them with anything of mine on their system. EDF would be much better off without them, useless company. I better not be receiving any more correspondence from you.

I'd like to give zero stars but can't. I've been getting scam text messages claiming to be from "Scotpower" about an unpaid account. Firstly, all the utility bills for our property are in my husband's name. None of them are anything to do with Scottish Power, energy or anything vaguely Celtic. Now I have a text message from LCSDR demanding payment. Just another phishing expedition. What a bunch of tossers.

Guy turns up at my house, clip board in one and rude tone to his voice, the notice isn't even for me but previous tenants. I sent letters back but the same letters keep coming.so he refuses to identify him self and demands I come to the door and not to speak through the intercom etc keeps asking if I'm home etc of course for safety reasons I refuse to answer keeps barking the same name again and again although I tell him no one by that name lives here and to leave his details so I can deal with them and identifying him later.

Scam. They sent letter behalf of HMRC asking money that owed. I never owed money to HMRC in all my life. I checked with HMRC they said I am not owed. I sent them details and picture of letter. Please contact HMRC immediately and complain about it.
PS:
This is my exprience, I don’t know about legitimacy of company. There may be another scammer using this company name. Be cautious. Never make payments before contacting.

Pure scum, constantly harassing me on behalf of eon energy for money I don't even owe them despite me providing proof that I owe nothing. Phoning me early in the morning too and causing me huge distress by threatening me with a default against my name. If you work for this company, you are morally bankrupt and your life is worthless.

This company are a disgrace...........but are legitimate. Verify any letters received by calling HMRC

Like most of you I received a fraudulent claim from LCS wrt. vehicle taxation. My tax is paid and fine, and I agree this must be a scam. To not only review it, I filed a report with Surrey police.

I have just received a chase from LCS in respect of an HMRC liability. This must be a scam company.

If I owe HMRC, I would pay them direct.

I suspect this is a fraud but I can see many people being taken in by this.

The first agent I spoke to seemed reasonable and understanding when I explained the useless British Gas were billing me for a debt that does not exist. I emailed all the requested information and when I received an email to provide further details I did. I received a generic response ensuring me I would hear back with something more personal soon. I received no further communication. Then I get letter worded 'as requested please find attached invoice' - odd because I certainly didn't request this invoice as this is a bill for electricity for the month prior to me moving into a rented property - so why exactly do I want to pay for a month I wasn't living there as I have tried to inform British Gas of for four months? I spoke to another agent today who was far less friendly and told me they have emailed me asking for further information (which they have not). I have now resent the further info I already sent and have so far received the genetic response again. Time will tell if they actually process the further info or not or whether I am just going to keep going round in circles like I have with British Gas.

Unfortunately there is no option to give 0 stars!!

I was being chased for a Thames water bill from 2019 when I moved out 8 years ago. They ask to confirm my personal information before they even talk to you.

Seems they purchase debts in hope of making profit. LCSDR didn’t check their facts before bombarding me with letters!

Still taking money out of peoples accounts.

Will not explain why.

Why is this company open during lockdown there not key workers.

Awful service, customer service rep is as much use as a chocolate teapot and is very rude.

Absolute joke of a company. Several letters received with wrong values on to begin with, have requested 15 call backs by text to my mobile, requested 23 call backs via their online call back request form.No call backs yet over a 2 week period,interestingly since giving my mobile and ex directory landline i have been receiving scam calls on a regular basis,"amazon prime renewal" and "involved in an accident" calls all blocked.BE CAREFUL GIVING LCSDR ANY OF YOUR PHONE NUMBERS.
I have contacted HMRC who these jokers were supposed to be collecting on their behalf and i have sorted out the discrepancy.
BUNCH OF CLOWNS.

Terrible terrible company who don't listen or corresponden properly they ignore emails on purpose .
