I opened an account with them in december 2010 and always made my payments on time. A couple of months ago, my ex but boyfriend at the time asked if i wanted to live together. We needed to furnish the place and he asked if i could get some things, our furnitures and appliances with them and he would of course pay his share. I am not even sure how much the debt is but roughly 10k combined. Of course, not all 10k was about the house, i have personal expenses as part of it too.
Sadly, i think i jumped the gun too soon as i found the b***ard had about 3 women he was messing around with including one at our work place just before he left. I moved back in with my mum and i havent contacted Littlewoods & its sisters since to tell them of a change of address, hence why im not sure how much i owe, could log into the account if it would let me but im petrified, no payments in almost 5 months.
Now, he wont talk to me or acknowledge the fact that now all debts will fall onto me, i, of course want to sell the things i bought but seeing as it was delivered in his name, i can't proof ownership, i cant proof he promised to help pay for the items, i cant proof he hasn't paid me if he tries to claim otherwise. I considered small claims court but i am just exhausted from the whole thing that i dropped it. Trust me, whatever bad things your mind is conjuring up right now about me, i have thought it all. I have been receiving txt msgs from k&co about late payments but no letters, like i said, not changed address back yet but i believe it is only a matter of time untill i am found.
What i need to know now is if i can contact them and offer a monthly payment on my terms? I do not want it to get to the stage where i start receiving those red letters. I want to be responsible for my actions but im scared they will turn around and start demanding £200 a month or something and I myself am barely left over with £200 a month after rent, supporting dad and grandparents. I don't want it to get to the point where people come to my mum's house and empty it (of course i do not want to lose my things too) as i am aware this is a large sum of money that i am sure they wont keep quiet about. Advice please
