The entry on my credit file is PRA. The only reason I can think they are using that address is they chased me years ago for an old payday loan that defaulted in 2011. Barclays have always had my correct address.

I have been getting letters from PRA regarding a Barclaycard account I took out in 2015, at my current address, defaulted in 2020. The account is on my credit file, with an address I haven't lived at for 12 years. The letters from PRA are all being sent to my current address. I'm reluctant to start contacting them, unless I receive a letter of claim. But, I am concerned about them potentially using an old address to get a backdoor CCJ. Should I send a short letter confirming my current address, or leave things as they are?

I received a Letter of Claim approximately 6 weeks ago and ignored it until I received a claim form for 4 New Day credit cards that were assigned to Lowell.
