    Just a random question but over the years have many times does the debt move to another creditor, and if it does do you request a CCA each time?
    Debts are bought and sold all the time, occasionally they might be sold on again, but usually only the once.

    A debt buyer will usually hold on to it until it either bears fruit or it doesn't.

    There is no limit to how many times you can make a CCA request, the only stipulation is that a balance remains payable, once is normally enough, once deemed unenforceable, it tends to stay that way.
