Maybe this debt has been sold on - even stronger position for you!
Go to a free advice agency and get a financial statement to show exactly what you can afford.
Most courts accept that as final! Even if it is only a token £1.00 a month

- Thu Sep 01, 2011 8:15 pm #274923 According to the OFT GUIDELINES and the LENDING CODE (GUIDELINES) then the original creditor has a responsibility to be sure that their agent should also follow the recommendations on how to treat customers in difficulty.

However, as we all know this sometimes does not happen and we also know that sometimes the original creditor does not seem to follow the guidelines

When they do not they should be reported but people are so demoralised they think that if they get it sorted they have not got the energy to do anything further ..... and so it goes on.

And, I am afraid, courts cannot be depended upon to always get it right - have seen some courts go for a forthwith judgment as they feel the client cannot even afford £1 per month - but these can be fought!
