Have a ccj with a company no longer active

Options
Hi, I have a ccj with claims4you who appear to have gone bust, I can't find any phone numbers or email addresses or forwarding solicitor details to pay off my debt, bit sure what my next steps are and how I go about getting it removed or paid off. Any help would be grateful

    Have you tried contacting the CCJ issuing court for information?
    I work within the voluntary sector, supporting vulnerable people to rebuild their lives.

    I love my job

    Yes I've sent them an email explaining the situation, I was just hoping to hear from someone that might already know a solution

    Usually when a creditor goes bust, the assets will be sold off, someone will buy the debt, and they will be in touch with you, until then all you can do is wait.

    Is it more than 30 days since the CCJ was issued? If so just be aware that paying it won't remove it from your credit file. It will simply be marked as 'settled' which is only marginally better than unsettled.

    The only way to remove it is if you can get it set-aside and re-opened which you need valid grounds in order to do so.

    It will drop off automatically 6 years after issue whether paid or not.
