Getty Images Letter Forum / Re: Pixsy demand email
« on: May 19, 2018, 02:11:20 PM »
Hi,

You wanted to know how what happened with Pixsy pursuing me. I took the advice I got on this forum and refused to respond to the emails or answer their calls. I last heard from them a couple of months ago, saying they were about to "escalate" and that they were withdrawing their "offer". I haven't heard anything since, but am not breathing easy just yet.

HTH

Anyone received a live telephone call from Pixsy? I've just screened a call from them. Is this standard practice?

3
Just received a third letter an "escalation" notice a week after the second. Is this the normal pattern? The threat is to ass the case to a "local attorney" (the use of language there gives it away that the email hasn't been prepared locally,as we don't the term attorney here in the UK, as does the fact that the last email was sent at 11pm UK time)

At what point does it become necessary to engage with these people?  When I receive communication from a solicitor/lawyer (who will merely be acting as a strong arm man), or is this just more bluff? Do I need to talk to these guys/debt collection agency,albeit just to stonewall them, or can/should I simply I completely ignore all communication?

Just received a second notice letter from Pixsy - I ignored the first as advised here. There's what I imagine is the usual threat - "pay up now or we'll bring in the lawyers and the original demand will be off the table".

Do I still ignore? I'm guessing the answer from you good folks here is guess, but I just want to check - call it virtual hand holding if you like :-\

Thanks in advance.

Thank you - I hope I'm doing the right thing, but will just try to relax  :-\

Hi,

Is the best advice still as here - not to respond to demand letters?  I'm UK based and recently received a demand letter from Pixsy.com.  I was about to reply with a response highlighting a number of similar photos on stock websites and their prices for use (far less than 1/20 of the fee being demanded), when I came across the responses on this thread which suggest it is better not to respond at all.

What should my course of action be in 2017?

Many thanks!
