thanx for your reply codeman. having returned home im able to llok into this a bit more now, however the 2 initial letters we received from getty were actually emails, not letters. also the letter from atradius is also an email to dear sir/madam not an actual letter. the worst bit because its over 12 moinths now my friend who owns the business cant retrieve the 2 initial letters.

so im now thinking......what emails ?
should i bother replying to atradius email and explain we have no idea what theyre refering too, or just leave that too?

Evening,  interesting to see this post as we got a email from atradius on friday, stating they're working on behalf of getty. All correspondence from getty and now atradius has been from email. Can't they afford to send letters?
How serious do we take these letters, I'm unsure. Feeling sick with all the hassle!

Good morning all. Im in need of some advice please. Over a year a go I helped a friend do a website for his small gym. Unfortunately one of the images has been picked up by getty and he has received 2 letters over the last 10 months telling  him to pay £580 for the image (screen shot was included in the letter). We ignored the letters,but on Friday he's received an email with an attachment from atradius collections stating they're working on getty behalf to collect the outstanding payment and if they don't receive it then legal action will be taken.

Can somebody please advise what our next step should be as this is now causing much stress

Simon
