    does that means that arrangements are in place to repay those arrears?

    Firstly, on the hardship claim, I don't think you have a case based on priority debts with repayment arrangements in place. However, you have a disputed debt so write to LloydsTSB and state you will make payment arrangements on the account on the conclusion of the OFT test case issues. Tell the DCA that the debt is in legal dispute and if you feel confident, tell them to get lost.
