Wrongly issued CCJ from Severn Trent

[lvwade]

My husband moved out of a flat he shared with someone in October 2011.

 

 

At that time the bills were all in his name and

 

 

when he moved out he rung Severn Trent to advise he was moving out and to transfer the account to his flatmate.

 

In January 2012 we both moved to Australia.

 

 

During a recent trip back to the UK I came accross a letter that had been sent to my old address

(the address he moved into with me in the UK).

He had obviously given that as a forwarding address but from Oct - Jan we never had any letters from them.

 

The letter said he owed approx 150GBP and that because he hadn't paid it there were CCJ's on him.

 

I contacted Severn trent who advised the debt had been passed on to a debt collection agency.

I rung them but they refused to speak with me because it was in my husbands name.

 

We've checked with my husbands old flatmate who has confirmed the bills were all ttransferred to her in Oct 2011

and that Severn Trent never contacted her to say any money was owed.

 

I've just returned to Australia ad am keen to sort it out.

 

 

I've read through these forums and have seen mention of a set aside but it says the claimant has to agree to it.

I have no idea if this is severn trent or the debt agency and am pretty confused.

 

Any advice would be gratefully received.

 

Thank you
