  • Guess my worry was that they supply evidence it was taken out, but the statue barred thing helps so many thanks for your advice

    Doesn't make any difference if they did now, lenders have 6 years in which to chase credit debts, after which they are just out of luck.

    Update - their reply in today

    "I have passed your email to our complaints department. They will be in touch with you as soon as possible. 

    Your account has become ‘statute barred’ under section 5 of the Limitation Act 1980.

    What this means for you:

    Your account has now been closed on our system and you will not be contacted again about it."

    Their complaints have emailed as well to say they are looking into it etc, is it worth telling them not to bother now it's closed?

    Thanks so much everyone who helped me with this 🙂

    I`d leave it, let them investigate, you might get a £50 quid good will payment out of them.

    Well done.
