    Well received my letter today that i requested confirming that the loan has been paid off - basically says thank you for paying the full balance and your account is not settled etc etc.... but still waiting on the closing statement that i asked them for!! Might ring them today to make sure they did send it, as the waiting is horrible!!

  • It went on for between 6-8 weeks.I said nothing, and kept fingers crossed.
    Everytime that company sends you a letter your heart will sink.
    But like i said before "you never know"
    I got my fingers crossed for you.
    Good Luck.
    Keep us informed it's better than any soap.

    Well i got the statement that i have been waiting for. Not that it was much help - just said payment made :rolleyes:

    I suppose i'll just leave it for now and wait for them to contact me.

    Ordered a credit report aswell today so shall see if that shows up on there.

    I suppose its just a waiting game of whether they chase me up for it :p

    The exactly same thing happened with me, I asked them over and over and they told me definately settled. 3 months later the direct debit started again, I spoke to the lawyer and she said there was nothing I could do. I complained they should have let me know they were going to start the direct debit again, so they wiped the 3 months of arrears....bonus!
