A question about : how to deal with 10 year old debt
hi, i would be gratefull for any advice. i am on long term esa support group benefit, i have five defaults that i am paying off at between Ј5 and Ј10 per month, they range from Ј400 to Ј7000 owing so i know i will be paying them for ever, the agencies i pay are happy with my payments and i am up to date. my problem now is that i received a letter yesterday from MK recoveries telling me i owe Ј2777 for a hire purchase i had over ten years ago, i have not payed or had any contact until now. MK recoveries allready handle one of the debts that i currently pay so i dont know if this makes any differance. i dont know how or if i should respond, is the debt still valid after all this time, what do i tell them if they phone me regarding this debt. any help please. sorry about spellings and thank you in advance for your advice
Best answers:
- Have you check your online credit report? Maybe getting together all details of your debt, and creating a budget on how you are paying them off will be helpful?
If you post a statement of affairs on here, there are lots of people with good advice.
Why are you paying so little on your debts? You need to be in a position to pay more, so sorting yourself our will help.
Dont resign to the fact you will just be paying out forever!! - thanks for your reply. i only get Ј224 per fortnight as i cant work due to disability, i juggle money around to pay what i am paying. i just wanted to know about old debts
