    Can you scan and upload the letter please? (anonymise your details first!)
    "Although scalar fields are Lorentz scalars, they may transform nontrivially under other symmetries, such as flavour or isospin. For example, the pion is invariant under the restricted Lorentz group, but is an isospin triplet (meaning it transforms like a three component vector under the SU(2) isospin symmetry). Furthermore, it picks up a negative phase under parity inversion, so it transforms nontrivially under the full Lorentz group; such particles are called pseudoscalar rather than scalar. Most mesons are pseudoscalar particles." (finally explained to a captivated Celestine by Professor Brian Cox on Wednesday 27th June 2012 )

          Could be

          Graham John Cooper
          SRA ID: 129603
          Solicitor Admitted as a solicitor 01/11/84
          In-house Solicitor at: Lloyds Tsb Asset Finance Division Limited Charterhall House, Charterhall Drive, Chester, Cheshire, CH88 3AN



          I expect it is exactly the same solicitors as before, but they aren't using the ''department'' title of SCM anymore.

              Hi all

              My mother and brother today had letters today from lloyds bank plc with the smae information as mentioned above. G J Cooper now act on behalf of Lloyds Banking Group. In place of P Simmons, SCM Solicitors. Thing is My mother has banked with Barclays for 20+ years and never had a loan/accound with Lloyds, same goes for my Brother. Hence me doing some searching to see if this is a possible scam as the letters look like cheap photocopies, and the signature is legal recoveries.


              thanks for any replys

                  Thank you for posting up the letter. It all seems legit to me, Lloyds have had to stop using the SCM Solicitors name, as they didn't exist, and was really their own in house solicitors using a scary company name to worry customers, so this is a lot more above board. Basically they are correcting their previous cock up so nothing at all to worry about.

                  So letters could come from any of the 13 solicitors in the organisation ( Lloyds Asset Finance ) - more likely one of the 5 who practice at that address;

                    A change of solicitor in proceedings and notifying the court of that, would suggest that legal action on whatever they are chasing has already been issued?

                    So to be clear, neither of them have ever owed or owe anything to Lloyds banking group? See: http://www.lloydsbankinggroup.com/our-brands/

                    Have either of them received any claim form or other notice of proceedings from a court?

                      Thanks for the reply, These letters are the first we have heard about owing anything to lloyds, no nasty letters previously from lloyds or courts etc, hence the shock. the letter for my brother has a slightly different amount, slightly different judgement number and Acc number.. all seems a bit suspect.

                        Indeed I missed that in your initial post - sorry. Can you check your mothers / brothers credit files? Noodle is a good free instant one.

                        Cheap photocopies and signing as a company or department sadly doesn't flag it up as a scam as the banks do do that to save the pennies I guess.

                              I have received the very same letter (x2) this morning too for 2 CCJ's with Lloyds.

                              Panicked a bit at first on opening, but yeah, just notification of the change of solicitor from SCM to G J Cooper. I have had them before with other CCJ's. Nothing to worry about - unless you received the above letter for a debt you have no knowledge of, of course!
