Set Aside CCJ

Hi All,

I recently moved address and stupidly did not set royal mail forwarding! Because of this I never paid back money owed to a company as they only sent letters to my old address and did not try and call.

Is there any chance at all of me getting this set aside? Or will I just have to wear it for 6 years?

Thanks,
Danny

    If you agree that the money is owed and the correct amount was claimed by the creditor and if you did not inform them of the change of address then you are unlikely to be successful with a set aside application.

    To put Tixy's advice another way - do you have a good reason to get this set aside (apart from the wrong address)?

    You could potentially get it set aside because it was incorrectly served but unless you have a good defence prepared you will probably end up with the same judgement.

    Without further info we can't offer you any better advice.
