statute barred debt

Options
hi all

I have two old statute barred debts one from alliance and Leicester and another one . I have never acknowledged the debts and have no ccj on them , but I was wondering how do I find out what happened to the debts without setting off triggers , my credit file is clear because all this happened about 10 years ago

    I wouldn't do anything at all.

    They've most likely written the debt off. Anything you do could get them to start asking for the money again so I would just leave it alone.

    A&L is now Santander. I'd just avoid them and bank elsewhere.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    As above, best advice is let sleeping dogs lie.

    You probebley won't hear from them again now.
