hey rach
if I receive an unsolicited text from a debt management company and I text back telling them go fuck themselves am I likely to get in trouble?

Only if they seek compensation for injuries caused whilst trying to fuck themselves at your instruction.

haha
shit I should have been more cautious with my wording. I also called them parasites, so I suppose that's libellous.

You'll just have to put together a convincing argument
in which you claim that "parasite" was used as an analogy for the manner in which they suck the "blood" from the helpless, struggling "hosts" that are civilisation and decency.

You should be in luck though, because most of the people who end up on juries are those who couldn't find a good excuse because they'd only have spent the week watching Jeremy Kyle in their pyjamas, and probably owe considerable sums to debt management companies themselves.

Only if you win the case
If I win, you're legally a fool. Play your cards very carefully.
