CCJ Set aside with consent - process & time scales?
Hi there, I have a CCJ that I thought I might be able to get set aside.

CCJ for a vehicle that was sold...
I sold a vehicle to a friends nephew in October 2020. I didn't fill in the V5 but I did get a signed receipt with date and both signatures marked sold as seen etc etc. The buyer took the vehicle straight away to get it repaired. The bill from the garage was about £750 or so. I don't have the full details but the bill now…

Attachment of earnings
Wasn’t sure where to post this so hoping I’ll get some responses. I’ve been granted a ccj for someone who owes me close to £5k. It was granted by default as they didn’t respond to the small claim letter. First payment according to the court order has been and gone. No payment and no idea of when or if I’ll get anything. So…

Credit Style doing soft searches
This week I looked at my credit file and found a soft search from Datasense UK. I contacted them and asked who their client was, and they said it was a company called Credit Style (I think these are the same as CST Law?) I imagine this relates to a parking charge I recieved letters about a while ago. Is this a new thing…

A £6.50 missed payment is destroying my credit file!
Hi all, I was hoping someone could give me some reassurance that a £6 missed payment isn't going to ruin my chances of getting a good rate on a mortgage next year. I'm saving for a first home deposit at the moment and if all goes well we will be ready at some point between this Winter and next Summer. Our washing machine…

Equifax Complaint - any ideas?
Morning everyone - first time poster but seeking advice from the collective on this. We purchased a newbuild property using the Help to Buy Wales scheme.

County Court Judgement I knew nothing about
I've just tried to apply for a loan and a couple of comparison sites have said nobody will lend to me so i've obtained my credit file. It has two CCJs on dated 18th May 22. They're both for £257. We've figured out the most likely thing would be a parking ticket and i've just dug out my V5 and it's still at my old address.…

Therefore, I didn't pay the first month's bill and I only noticed when the bill for the second month was emailed to me and I thought it was a bit high. When I realised my error, I paid off the full balance…

Is this identity theft?
Hello I've just noticed that there are two companies on Companies House are registered under my name (different addresses but same DOB). I have quite a rare name so it would be very unlikely that someone would have the same name and DOB. I did have a previous instance of someone trying to apply for a bank account with my…
