Thanks Andy - I will do as you advise.

After defaulting on an £18,000 unsecured Northern Rock loan they obtained a CCJ in Bradford Crown Court in July 2009. They then registered a charge on my share of our home with the Land Registry. In October 2009 I was declared bankrupt and included this loan in the bankruptcy. I have made no payments or made contact with Northern Rock or Marlin Europe since then. I was advised that the debt had transferred to Marlin Europe and they are now chasing me for payment. I have received a "notice of application for attachment of earnings order" that looks like it has come from the court but I suspect is another scare tactic from their solicitors, Mortimer Clarke. What is my best course of action? Do I need to complete the form that asks for income and expenditure details? I do not understand how an unsecured loan, sold as that and with the interest rate set accordingly can somehow become secured on my property. Does my bankruptcy not cancel this out? I would welcome any advice as the notice threatens up to 14 days in jail for not replying.
