House Repossesion in Scotland

Hi all
Could someone please advise the correct procedure for a Bank to repossess a property:
Received a calling up notice, with no mention of giving me a timeframe. No section 11 notice. No confirmation they have contacted local council to advise.
3weeks later I receive an Initial Writ from the court!
Is this correct?

You will probably get much more help on the House Buying and Renting board. Although the causative issue is debt, my guess is that you need help from a property solicitor instead.

Be sure to make it clear this is Scotland. The law differs considerably between the two countries in this regard.Debt Free! Long road, but we did it
