CCJ threat

Hello.I hope this is the right thread.
I have a debt from an old employer, they started CCJ proceedings but we came to an agreement that I would pay the debt off over 2 years and they would stop CCJ proceedings. However the debt company that was trying to get the money back has added over £1000 worth of “costs”
I have been arguing that I will pay back the original debt but not the costs.
If I stop paying the agreed monthly instalments when the original debt is paid could they take out a CCJ for the “costs” they claime are now owed?

If the costs are valid, yes, they may pursue a CCJ.
You need to determine whether they are or not.0 -

OP you posted the same thread twice, 1 minute apart.
You let the board guides decide if it needs to be moved elsewhere.0 -
