Re: Calls from Barclays Bank
Harassment by debt collectors is a criminal offence under the Protection From Harrassment Act 1997.

Keep a detailed record of any calls/contacts.

Next time they call ask for their contact information. Write to them pointing out that you have no liability to them and if they think otherwise invite them to send you proof in writing of the debt.

Tell them that if they continue to harass you you will provide proof of the harassment to Trading Standards and the Office of Fair Trading inviting them to consider criminal proceedings or the revocation of their credit license. Remind them of the recent judgement of Ferguson v British Gas.
