Blackhorse/Hillesden Securities/Court Claim received.

[winston1979]

Hi,

 

I've received some letters from Hillesden Securities

informing me that they have applied to the courts in regards to a CCJ regarding a debt from 2004.

 

I stopped paying as I couldn't afford it but and was on a debt management plan at the time

the debt had been passed around various companies before Hillesden took it on,

 

as I do not have any paper work relating to this debt

 

I'm about to write a letter requesting details of the agreement

as I heard I maybe able to contest them if they've not contacted me in what I believe to be around 6 years,

 

if I do this can it be classed as acknowledgement of the debt?

 

Thanks for reading.

Hi,

 

They've done all the threatening and have gone ahead with the CCJ procedure, charged me £600 and given me an option to pay a monthly fee until the debt has been paid.

 

Could you be a little more specific winston re their letter...are the only threatening to issue a court claim?

 

Regards

[winston1979]

No, cut a long story short I only found out about the CCJ via credit file, I'd initially moved out of the address in September and only retrieved the letters this week.

[dx100uk]

phone the court tomorrow

ask the status of the claim

 

 

I suspect you now have a CCJ by default.

 

 

dx

[winston1979]

I've noticed there is a CCJ on my credit file and a letter that says I must pay £50 p/m by 13th Feb 2016, I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet on this one.

[dx100uk]

oppss..

 

 

well if you can prove its statute barred

then you'll have to pay a £155 fee

and get a copy of the N244 and set it aside.
