Hi, I have received a letter from the consumer advisory service referring to a past closed legal matter and that I should not be alarmed as the purpose of them contacting me is that they have identified I may be due to a return of charges previously paid in respect to past transactions. but that the issue is complicated to explain in writing and request that I contact them on 08000987940 so that they can guide me further on the matter. is this a scam???????????

Just bin it and forget them.
IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.

They are ambulance chasers and, no doubt, out to make a profit for themselves -- bin it.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

A lot of us have had them - don't bother contacting them and, as Foggy says, they are just out for themselves.

Personally, I wrote to them and demanded to know where they got my name and address from as I was a member of the MPS. Got a reply with an apology and a reassurance no further mail would be sent.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
