May I suggest to the OP that they ask for advice on th DFW board also? It seems only valiant knows what they are talking about here!

Perhaps a more balanced answerto the OP's question would be 'yes, they could -if they have been to court and obtained a CCJ'.

No-none (person or institution) has the right to break into the OP's home over a financial dispute unless they have permission from the court or unless they are a certified bailiff who has had access to the property previously.

But I do agree with the previous poster - you really should deal with this debt before you go. If a debtor does take you to court while you are away you may well come back to a nasty shock. How long are you planning to be away for?

Bravo Valiant for clarification, other posts please do not post information that is not accurate,they cannot break in CCJ or not ,good point about car etc outside property I had not thought about that,

All these misconceptions play into the hands of the bailiffs
