UKAR Chasing Unsecured NRock Loan - Advice needed
Hey- myself and now ex partner took out an unsecured loan back in 2006 for £20k on top of a mortgage we had at the sametime
- all ok
- fast forward 1 year he then takes out a secured loan in our names, forged my signature (this is not why I am writing but just trying to give you some background)
he told me he would kill himself if I reported him
- we split up
only after 2 years did I then contact bank and said I didn't sign or agree to this
- they wouldn't back down,
police wouldn't pursue
the property was sold and the proceeds were swallowed up for his secured loan
I stopped paying the unsecured loan in April 2013 (when we split up we walked away and paid nothing)
I rented out property and we sold this end of 2013
there is nothing on my credit file for this unsecured loan that is now £16k
-I was able to obtain a mortgage 2016 no problems
I am now getting letters from a company working for the bank wanting payment of the £16k
- I had some correspondence with them back in 2016 and then it stopped
- my question is
do I have to pay this?
why hasn't this been on my credit files??
I hope I have explained properly
Has anyone else had a letter ?
I know it will be 6 years of non payment in April but as I had correspondence in 2016 would this be statured barred

Receiving correspondence does not acknowledge the debt. Just wait it out.0

The correspondence in 2016 was from solicitors acting on behalf of NRAM (at the time I was getting a mortgage so I did respond to them to avoid any hitches on my new mortgage) and I need to dig out the letters but i did ask them to provide all information they had on the account
- they wanted an income and exp report which i never provided and i didn't agree to any payment plan
- and then the letters just fizzled out0 -
I have just seen a letter dates Feb 2014 where I offer £8k full and final settlement - to which they refused - so that mean I have acknowledged the debt in the past 6 years -0
-
By making an offer you have acknowledge and accepted that it is your debt - this will not be statute barred I’m afraid.0
