Not really a bank penalities question, but thought I would ask anyhow...

 

How long or far back can a BANK can chase ACCOUNT HOLDERS for an outstanding debt?

 

Basically, we received a letter from a debt chasing company, requesting us to pay £XXXX for an outstanding account to Natwest.

 

Although the account was relevant, we didn't know anything about owing any money, so we've asked for the bank account details to be forwarded to us.

 

But thinking about it, this account/debt must be about 8 years old.

 

Therefore, I was wondering, if we do owe this money, does any element of the Limitation Act apply?

 

Many thanks.

TonyC's second link provides the answer - 6 years provided you have not acknowledged the debt (particularly by making a payment) and they don't have a CCJ against you.
