  1. Which points do you disagree with? Did IDRWW force you into bankruptcy? Please do share your story and what happened at the hearing!
  2. Hi all, Wanted to provide an update for anyone researching and trying to understand their position with what to do and what I have done. I saw over the last couple of months that IDRWW do in fact put court processes in place and, although, this forum is fantastic at sharing and helping people the anxiety and stress that defending these claims brings is a lot. I was trying to liaise with the banks directly and had no luck what so ever until IDRWW forwarded on an email I had sent to the bank back to me asking to fill out a financial assessment. It felt like the right thing to do so I completed the form and sent back. The agent i was dealing with was actually very polite and courteous, understood my situation and caused me no friction in my offer of £10 a month to each bank. FAB and ENBD circa £40k debt. He provided me with direct bank details for each bank for the payments to go and nothing through IDRWW. Confirmed no further action will be taken as long as i maintain this £20 a month (basically for the rest of my life!) but for peace of mind and no need to worry about a SJ or court appearances this is what works best for me. Hopefully they will stick to their word but if not i will come back and update this thread. I don't have any assets or mortgage, zero savings and a small disposable income so i am presuming once this was realised they knew there was no point in pursuing the debt any further (IMO only).
  3. Thanks all. Wanted to post an update for people that come across threads like these and are not updated. As per advice i have written to the banks in Dubai and advised no access to previous address, telephone number or email and that my current address in the UK is different to the one they have on file. To which i provided my new address in the UK. Sent to two banks and both banks returned my letters with post it notes asking for account numbers. I replied with all identifiable information, bank cards, account numbers, photos etc. and advised to contact me through letter as only option of correspondence. I have tried calling them and without an OTP response they will not discuss my accounts with me. It was a Dubai number that i no longer have access to. I have not heard anything from the banks since. I have updated the electoral roll with said address IDRWW however have sent multiple e-mails and have sent 2 introductory letters to my address, either the bank has informed them or i expect they checked my credit file for my new address. None have been responded to yet. I am now working and am in a position to start paying back my debts, however as the banks last correspondence via email was police case and full amount etc. and not being able to speak to anyone on the phone regarding my debts i am unsure how to approach. I would like to open dialogue with them but i fear what i can afford to pay each month will not suffice. I have been reading many a thread and can see each individual case is different. For those that win the process is long and drawn out, time consuming and looks very stressful so would be keen to avoid but will need to wait and see.
  4. No i dont have a CCJ but i have read a lot about the backdoor CCJ’s that are given. i was asking that if i write to the banks and update them of my new address, what if idrww have note of my old address and instruct a solicitor acting on the banks behalf to send the letter of claim to my old address? could i then get the ccj removed by proving i sent documentation to the bank of my new address which was not followed by the solicitor acting on behalf of the bank? as of now i have not communicated anything with anyone.
  5. Sorry, i dont understand the question. Could you elaborate please? Am i to send a letter to the dubai banks for my new address? Am i to ignore all DCA contacts - including not writing to them to update an address in case a letter of claim came from one of their solicitors to my old address that i have no access to?
  6. yes to all of it? Including to IDRWW? Would me writing to the banks in Dubai of a new address to contact me on via special delivery mean a backdoor ccj would be removed as they are using an old address?
  7. Happy to have it here as well, i will post updates until the very end so people can see the full cycle that will happen with my case. The address the bank has in Dubai is an old address i no longer have access too. My credit report is updated with a recent address that i do have access to but is a different address to the one the bank in Dubai has. Is it worth me writing to the banks in Dubai to cover myself from a backdoor ccj to the address i no longer have access too? I have had another email from IDRWW yesterday, is it worth just writing to them with an address to contact me on as to not miss any important documents?
  8. Okay. a CCJ would be absolutely detrimental for me and have only had the first email IDRWW. should i contact the banks and try to arrange a payment plan? Based on the other threads i see they dont play ball with these and refuse point blank. I would now be able to make some repayments as i now have a job in the UK but not the repayments i was making whilst i was there. im really stuck what to do. Alot of the the times i can see that it doesnt go to court and that’s it but sometimes it does and no one really can see why they do/or dont. i know you both give sound advice all the time so really any help or direction would help me mentally. thanks all.
  9. Thanks Andy. If it ever goes to court and the judge rules in their favour; can a payment plan we set up then and not have a CCJ on your record?
  10. If the solicitors issue the claim in the banks name here and we follow the advice as suggested then we should be okay or a chance in us losing?
  11. @unclebulgaria67 thank you for the insight. What normally happens if the debt is referred back to the UAE banks?
  12. @dx100uk @Andyorch dear both, has there been any claims for UAE debt that has gone to UK courts and been successful for the UAE banks? If so could you point me in the direction where i can learn how/why this happened? not backdoor CCJ’s but after following the templates and request for info on this forum? so many threads on here have no endings. thank you both.
