    I am confident that, because we are already in a DMP with CCCS that any Court will see it unreasnable for Natfest to pursue this debt any further than I can give, financially. I am aware that they are looking for the full amount and that is fine. We owe it! But I cannot see it as reasonable to make a judgement where our endeavours will NEVER repay the debt.

    Sheesh. And now the toilet is leaking...... Natwest gods descend???

    I've got a couple here (furballs) that you can borrow, leaf. :rolleyes:

    I know it's frustrating, but it's probably best to wait until Monday an talk with CCCS.

    Good luck.

    I am scared, but welcoming, a court case. Particularly in the present financial climate of all others struggling. This is just crazy and I would like to be prepared to challenge Natwest.

    Think I'll ask for an extension to get as much info as poss.

    Really appreciate your help Rog.

    Anyone choosing to tap in on them can have the debts!!

    Not that! It is admittedly a tiny risk (especially in this case), but creditors/DCAs do read these forums.

    There have been a few cases on other forums of people's cases/defences being compromised due to information they have posted. It's not likely that any harm would be caused in this case, but it's never a good idea to post information here that can uniquely identify you.

    This is just the type of 'smug' comment that can be expected from someone who posts one thread stating that 'he has £360k to invest' then continues to post abusive comments on other threads.
    In other words, the actions of a 'Troll' for which he has, along with his posts, been reported to 'abuse'.
    His/her vitriolic posts will, eventually, disappear, but, in the meantime it will probably be best just to ignore him/her.
    By all means report any of his/her posts as abusive, if you find them so, but please don't try to feed the troll.
