Have you recieved / under threat of a charging order?
[EMAIL="charging.orders@oft.gsi.gov.uk"]charging.orders@oft.gsi.gov.uk[/EMAIL]
Submissions should reach us by 30 March 2009.
The OFT is monitoring the use of 'charging orders' as a method of enforcing judgment debts, where the debts originally arose under regulated consumer credit agreements. This is due, in particular, to a significant rise in the numbers of charging orders being applied for and granted over the past few years
In addition, the OFT continues to welcome views and information on the manner in which charging orders are used in debt enforcement where the original debt arose under an agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974. If you have information that would inform our work in this area, please write to:

Hi
After defaulting on a loan with Black Horse upon losing my job in Sept 07, after a few months I was threatened with a charge order (verbally). This hasnt come to anything, despite being unable to make any payments so far as this is a secondary debt and primary debts come first.
Only experience I have had so far.DFW 228 LONG H 68
