Action when it has gone quiet.

from Matt (mattyc@ntlworld.com)
What have people done when the letters stop coming? Has any one written again to ask why and in any such letter has anyone tried text such as:

If no reply is received within X days (or by a certain date) I am advised to accept this as your word that the alleged debt has been written off and no further correspondence will be forthcoming and no legal action taken.

It seems to me that, if it all goes quiet (I have read about cases when nothing happens for 10 months and then the letters start again) the company cannot have a case to bring against you. If they were sure of their facts and your liability then they would continue to chase until the matter is resolved to their satisfaction. If I were legally convinced I was correct about something I would certainly chase it until I was satisfied.

Again, comments and thoughts on this appreciated.
