Help to locate and satisfy a CCJ

Hi
I am after some advice for a colleague regarding locating and paying a CCJ.
He recently discovered that there as an outstanding CCJ on his credit file dating back to 2005, he had a few CCJ's back then and thought that they had all been satisfied.
The outstanding one states that it is Natwest, he has held a current account with them for many years so they have always had his address details but he has no idea what it is for.
He has spoken to northampton county court who gave him the name of the solicitors who were dealing with the case.
Geoffrey Parker bourne.
Called them and they said it had been passed to H.l legal services.
Called H.l legal and they said they aren't dealing anymore and that it was passed to Intrum Justitia.
Called them and they said it was passed back to Natwest in December 2005.
Called Natwest and they couldn't see anything on his file reflecting this.. Said they would pass it to the care team to call him.
The reference at the court simply states "Natwest" as the claimant.
He has chased today and they still have no record of this.
It is only for less than £150 and he is willing to pay it to get it off his files. Surely if it states Natwest they can take the money and satisfy the CCJ?
This is causing issues in credit checking by a potential employer and he needs to get it sorted ASAP.
He has hit a brick wall in getting it sorted as no one seens to be able to help?
Any ideas?
Thanks
xx

    I expect if you write to Natwest demanding they mark the CCJ as satisfied on his credit file or remove it, as they have no record of it they'll suddenly find all the details ;)


    If you don't get many responses here you could try DFW?

    Can't really offer any specific advice except to say you should try sending a PM to 10past6. He/she knows all about CCJ's and might be able to give you some advice.
    I must stop procrastinating, I must stop procrastinating! promise I'll stop tomorrow OK:D

    Even if he satisfies the CCJ, it will just be satisfied not removed. It will fall off 6 years after the date it was placed on the file.

    Sometimes a creditor will take it off if you pay and ask for it to be removed, but their is no guarantee.
