I took out the contract 2 years ago when I was in a full time well paid job.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but if you had a well paid job then did you not consider increasing the repayments to clear the debt quicker?

In future if you find yourself in a similar situation I would suggest you try and up any repayments to finally try and get rid of this debt.

I did do exactly that! I believe the debt was originally somewhere around £4000 originally so that job actually helped me clear off a lot of it! I've got an interview coming up soon so I will be making the absolute maximum repayments I could possibly afford! Thank you for your advice 😁

They are an actual solicitor firm in Leicester. They are the firm my company employs and I am regularly paying them!

They are very easy to talk to so I would call them and speak to a human. If they receive no contact they will follow through with what they say in their letter.

I managed to get through to them today and as you said they were very friendly and not half as scary as I imagined!
I'm keeping in contact with them and can now hopefully avoid any court action!
