I have been making regular payments to a former employer for overpaidicon wages - this was about 8 years ago for an amount of £900.

Recently (last year) I dropped the payments to a nominal sum due to being unemployed. I did contact the employer at the time but they said they could not access my records (changing office) but to pay a small amount until they contact me.

Now they have written to me - there is app. £150 left to pay and they are asking that I increase payment. I have emailed them to say I cannot as I am unemployed, and asked that they write it off.

Is there anything else I can do or say? They have not contacted me since I initially arranged to repay about 7 years ago, and i have been making payments by standing order.
