In theory they could get a CCJ for any amount but once they know you are out of the country if they have any sense they will decide they are throwing good money after bad by persuring it.
They have to contact you by snail mail to tell you they are considering a CCJ so as long as they have your current address and you do read any letters you get from them you should be OK.
This is why they need to know your current address or they will be sending mail to your last UK address and if they do decide to go for a CCJ you wouldn't know about it if you redirection had run out and they would get a CCJ by default.
If you go down to the woods today you better not go alone.1 -

I hope you have stopped your payments to Payplan
A lot of your debts are too small for the creditors to apply for bankruptcy especially when they know you are living abroad.
Save what you can and wait and see what letters you receive once they know your address.
Ignore any threatening E Mails, they mean nothing and keep coming back if you have any problems and worries
Forced bankruptcy costs a creditor on average £1800 or more, and no sane person will initiate such a response to someone who`s assets are unknown, and does not even reside in this country.
