Since moving into my new house towards the end of October I have been receiving bills from Airtricity and from Stubbs Gazette for the sum of €768.
I have never had a contract with Airtricity, and I certainly don't owe any money to anyone. The bill relates to a period before I purchased the house. The letter is addressed to "The new owner of...."
If the former tenant of this house owed money, then surely that is their concern? I have been advised to ignore all letters and bills after sending the original ones to the daughter of the previous owner...however, the latest one threatens court proceedings and publishing my name in Stubbs Gazette.
For what exactly? Can they do this?
