...recieved 3 letters this week from my mobile provider. I was on a monthly sim only package which i cancelled beginning of January. My last payment went out middle of Jan, so i thought I was all square.
So I called V****n mobile to ask why I had these 3 letters, to be told I still owed a grand total of.......4p.!!!
So I very kindly asked they send me the bill in the post. Do you think it will be sent out?

If there is 250 people like you who owe 4p. That's....£10.
Worth chasing.

But if it costs 50p (guess) for the letter and the stamp then that's £125 to chase £10.

Send four post dated cheques for 1p each.

Send them a 5pence piece taped to a letter, then rather than using there post paid envelope send your own envelope addressed to the correct address without any stamp, they will get charged the postage to collect it.

We currently have NPower demanding money from us for a house we did not live in at the time, for a supply we never signed a contract for, that had another energy supplier supplying...
Never mind 4p, how about nil...?

I enjoy my monthly letter from Erudio Student Loans moaning they can't claim my DD. Again.

I guess no one reads the letters as the value of the DD is £0.00.

Every time I call them they can't seem to fix it and technically cause I haven't defaulted on the loan (remaining balance £67.45) then they can't do anything. I consider the production of letters and time wasting a punishment for stupidity.

Clowns.

If you send them cash they'll explode. They won't have a process for handling cash that doesn't involve a contract with some dedicated 3rd party paper and coins processor.

Send them cash.
