Statute Barred letterfor post 98 SL

[Chop5t1ck]

I have recently received a student loans letter from SLC demanding payments - or I will incur a further fee,

 

 

this is from a new style (post 98) that was due to start payments from 2002.

 

 

Some simple maths shows that this is now a statue barred loan and I would like to send them a letter stating the fact. Which Act do I use for the paragraph stated below:

 

"As this debt is statute barred, you cannot take court action unless you can provide evidence of payment or written contact from me within this period. This is stated in s5 Limitation Act 1980,

and any court claim will be defended on this basis"

 

I have read on many threads that the limitation period is 12 years, which has now elapsed - so how would I reword the letter template to cover the correct type of Student Loan.

 

Also to elaborate, I no longer live in the UK so not part of the tax system

 

Any assistance is greatly appreciated

post 98 loans sadly cannot as such become statute barred

Did you take the SB letter route - what wording did you use and act did you refer to? - have you had any response to your correspondence?
