    no probs setting up DD

    its been 6 years since I last heard from the debt recovery agency involved in trying to reclaim the monies I owed..

    I dont know where I stand with this to be honest...I am not trying to get out of it but as Im 22 I could do with the grand..

    What do you think I should do/

    How did someone under 18 (you'd have been 16 or under) manage to run up that kind of debt? I thought you had to be 18 to get credit? :confused:
    :A I love MSE!!! :A

    you defo have to be 18 to get an orange contract phone. Did you lie about your age or something?
    :p It is better to be thought of as an idiot than to open your mouth and remove all doubt
