Hey guys

I have received a document whilst being on vacation. It’s from the Betreibungsamt. I have never had an issue with payments of any sort so I am so confused. Is this legit? What should I do? This letter was also not “Eingeschrieben” and I have never received any “Mahnungen”. Even if there is a invoice I missed there must be some trail of “eingeschriebene” letters right? The website basta.ch sounds also awfully weird to me.

Either way, the deadline is missed and the specifically say that there is no possibility of getting more information over the phone. Can anybody with experience in this help me?

Many thanks!

  2. You could call them monday and ask if its legit?

    Or just pick it up – only way to find out.

  3. There’s also a grammatical error in the first line. Sorta suspicious, but nothing a phone call couldn’t get sorted.
    Re post/vacation, there’s an official post service where they hold back your mail for the duration of absence, which then also delays this kind of stuff. It’s CH, so of course it costs money.

  4. You can just go to any one of their offices they will produce the outstanding invoice. They won’t settle any reasons or anything though, but they are generally very friendly and helpful.

  5. Super weird.

    However the URL and phone numbers are legit.

    I would call the number on the upper right side, despite what it says they will still provide some context.

    2 days to pick something undisclosed up without forewarning sound super, super mysterious 

  6. Just be aware that if you don’t go there, they can call the cops and have them take you to the Betreibungsamt. You then have to pay for that too.

    It happened all the time at my former work place. Cops would arrive and take someone with them to the Betreibungsamt.
