Thread: Can I claim on closed account which went to DCA, now statute barred.

I know there was another thread on this, but I didn't wish to intrude on their thread.

Basically I was with Abbey (prev National & provincial) from mid 1990s upto end of 2000, when I was a very bad boy, and left them owing a fair amount of money, not to mention plenty of bounced cheques. Basically I disappeared, so they never got in contact with me, I was in a bad place and at a bad time.

They sold debts on to DCAs like Lowells and 1st credit, who are trying to pursue, I know the score on this. It's staute barred.

Can I claim for any bank charges on this case or is it not worth digging up an old corpse and creating trouble for myself?????

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

leave alone if statute barred

Ok thanks very much. I think you're right, it would probably cause more trouble than its worth.

thanks again.
