The only problem with that is that they have no address to contact me by post, should I give them my address so that they can correspond with me by post? Or is that a terrible idea?
As already said above, they could get a CCJ against you by default if they send correspondence to an old address, to be honest, its best to keep the ball rolling with them, then at least you can prevent this happening.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

the point is, there is no way of doing this unless he/she provides their address. so if they are not contactable at all its more likely drastic action would be takenThis is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
