Can I charge an Admin Fee.
Discussion
I keep getting letters for someone that has never lived at my address. I usually send them back saying that said person doesn't live here RTS. However they are started coming once a week and its doing my head in so I opened one to see what its about. Its from a rather well know debt collection agency. I phoned them up and told them that the person they are writting to doesn't live here so please stop. The letters stopped for about 3 weeks however they have now started arriving again. I phoned them up again and said that if they carry on coming I will charge a 50 admin fee for sending them back. The letters still keep coming. My question is can I legally charge them a 50 admin fee and enforce it?
Does it cost a bank 25.00 to return a direct debit? Probably not but they get away with it. But to answer your question no it doesn't, it involves me walking all of 20yrds to the post box. Its just getting annoying and I am pretty sure somewhere along the line this could effect my credit rating.
