    Hi ive also received a letter from hessonite mortgages saying it regards a shortfall for an old nram mortgage. I ignored the 1st 1 and have now received a 2nd letter saying if i dont respond they will instruct a field agent to visit my property. I thought as nram were a member of the council of mortgage lenders that rhey had to start proceedings within 5 years as i live in Scotland to reclaim the debt? Have you had anymore contact from hessonite?  Im just looking for advice as to what i should do?
    Mortgage debts (the capital amount) are not Statute Barred until 20 years in Scotland.

    But if I do I might offer a very low full and final settlement as a last resort

    First question is whether there was a shortfall.

    They are saying there's a 13 thousand shortfall but this is the first I have heard about it after nearly 12 years
