I borrowed 540 pound of my ex for a mountain bike in January we broke up since and I still owe her 350 pound. Her dad wants to take me to court if I don't pay it back over the next 4/5 weeks. I only earn 88 pound per week and after the loans I owe and the board I have to pay and phone contract etc I only have 20 left each week. So I have no chance of paying it all back withing 5 weeks. Any advice of what I should do? Or any info on what would happen if he took me to court?
I can't afford no more and have nothing worth selling to even make the money up.
I can only afford 20 a week but his not budging?
Any help would be great thank you. Worrying about it so much.
£540 sounds likes a massive extravagance for someone with just £20 a week left, after (other) loans and commitments.
It doesnt sound like you've been making regular payments BTW, so i can see why her dad and her are getting agitated, particularly if you're out cruising around on the £540 mountain bike.
I'd be selling the bike and paying her OR setting up a regular payment for what you can afford weekly directly to her account OR borrowing the amount owed from someone who is more amicable to the arrangement.0 -
