Hi Everyone
I finally have my credit report and I am sorting it all out.... I have 7 debts which all state Lowell ( I have no idea who this Lowell is??) 5 of the debts come off my credit report next month so taking advice from here I only really want to settle the last 2, but if I contact them wont they hassle me for the other 5? When this drops of my report can they legally not come after me?
Thanks for all the help and support so far

When you say " come off my report " do you mean it will be 6 years since you acknowledged the debt and they will become Statute Barred? Or 6 years since the default date?ISA £1675

Lowells are debt collector/buyers.
6 Years from default date does not necessarily mean the debts are statute barred.
