Check the CRAs and tell them it's not you or ignore.
The name Lending Stream gives you a clue as to !!!!!! they are.
They got your name because you have the same one as the person who skipped out without paying.0 -
Approached by who ??
If this is on your credit file, and your sure you didnt take out the loan, then someone has applied using your details and bank account.
Which would mean your debt card and your bank account have both been compromised.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.

Have , in cool light of day, checked CRAs. Deffo not me....sent paper work back denying knowledge.
Thanks zx81 it Seems your ' same name as ...' is probably close to the mark. Seems it's common practice, to find anyone with or without a connection and try to bill the for the default....Niall
