    Just because the debt is written off by RBOS doesn't mean you don't have to pay it back - it is still outstanding and unless there are other circumstances that you haven't noted I would certainly not ignore it as suggested. You need to sort this out unless you fancy being hounded.

    This was fraud on her account TROLL, she should not have to pay it, banks writ off fraud debt unless they can catch the fraudsters, which in this case the OP isn't.

    More meaningless drivel from tootsie eh? The bloke is an idiot. didnt even read the post properly......maybe we should all pay things we dont owe know...just for him!

    If my memory serves me right from reading posts on here from quite a while ago Troll works for a DCA. OK fair enough it can give a different side to the picture and give sound advice but in this case the posts are very unhelpful and usually offensive. Best to ignore :)
  • Everyone get a grip and re-read my post - idiots !

    I clearly state 'unless there are other circumstances that you haven't noted I would certainly not ignore it as suggested.' We now have the full story from KittyKate so know the additional circumstances i.e. that previously the fraud issue had been resolved with RBOS.

    Simply ignoring it will not help her at all - neither will all your guff.
