Waiting for CCA feedback - do i still need to pay?

Hello,
Ive sent out CCA requests to all my creditors. Some have come back to me saying this will take time and have put my account on hold. Some i am still waiting to hear back from and its been over the required 12 days.
Do I still need to make repayments while im waiting for the CCAs?
Do i still need to make repayments while the accounts are on hold?

    I am just about to send these letters off so am interested in the replies. Can I ask did you send off a pound to each creditor for this? Did you send it as postal orders made out to each creditor?

    The 12 plus 2 days are just guidelines, it will take much longer than that for the creditors to respond, expect to wait at least 2/3 months, sometimes even longer.

    The accounts are temporarily unenforceable whilst you wait, and you can withhold payment in the meantime.

    I did, by cheque, but at least one of the creditors returned the cheque as they do it for free.
