Legal loophole? Am I still in debt?

As said, they are talking utter bullwarks!
The CCA2006 does not include any provision that allows a provable unsecured debt to survive a BR order.
As said, tell them to put their claim in writing.
They won't, but if they are daft enough to do so then you can also send it with a complaint to the OFT and trading standards. It would also be sailing very close to attempting to obtain money by deception, if not actually fraud.
And would it not require the amendmant to be in the insolvancy act, not the CCA act :think:Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all ………….

No, not really.
It could be included in another Act/regulations.
For example, student loans were excluded from being written off in the Education (Student Support) (No.2) Regulations 2002 Amendment) (No.3) Regulations 2004 made under the authority of the Higher Education Act 1998.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

We still get calls now from welcome finance and they get told where to go, some people just like to try it on I think, the most important thing to remember is NEVER sign anything. Dont worry about it, really, think of your health.0

No, not really.

For example, student loans were excluded from being written off in the Education (Student Support) (No.2) Regulations 2002 Amendment) (No.3) Regulations 2004 made under the authority of the Higher Education Act 1998.40.24 Student loans
Student loans have been made under several pieces of legislation and their status depends on the legislation under which they were made and the date of the bankruptcy. The current position is that in all bankruptcy cases where the order was made on or after 1 September 2004, all outstanding student loans are not provable debts and thus are not released on a bankrupt’s discharge from bankruptcy [Note 35].
On 1 July 2004 the Higher Education Act 2004 was implemented, which changed the student loan legislation and made separate provisions for student loans made under the Education (Student Loans) Act 1990 and the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998.
Where the bankruptcy order was made on or after 1 July 2004, all student loans made under the Education (Student Loans) Act 1990 (often referred to as mortgage style loans) were made non-provable in bankruptcy with the consequence that they were also not released on discharge.
Loans under the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998 (often referred to as income contingent loans) were similarly made non-provable in bankruptcy, with effect from 1 September 2004, following implementation of the regulations applicable to the Higher Education Act 1998, namely the Education (Student Support) (No.2) Regulations 2002 Amendment) (No.3) Regulations 2004 [Note 36].
Where bankruptcies occurred prior to these dates, student loans may be treated as provable debts and thus be included in the bankruptcy and released on discharge. The dates are 1 July 2004 for loans under the Education (Student Loans) Act 1990 and 1 September 2004 for loans made under the Teaching and Higher Education Act 1998.
No part of a student loan may be claimed as part of the bankruptcy estate, as after-acquired property or as part of an income payments order or agreement [Note 37].
It was also amended in the insolvancy act though, which is what makes me wonder :think:Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all ………….
