Hi all,
I'll keep it short.
I have a DCA chasing me for a debt from just less than 6 years ago.
I received the papers from Northampton and sent in a defence and it looks like it's going to court.
I would be mortified if my friends and family found out i was having to deal with issues this way
- will my name appear in local newspapers/on the internet?
I receive the local paper and quite often they list the criminal cases and outcomes at the magistrates court
but never seemingly the debt related stuff..
.can anyone tell me if this sort of information is available/easy for people to find?
Also the original creditor and dca have been sending correspondence to the wrong address.
I have correspondence from them back in the day proving they did have the right address
however everything they have sent me has gone astray.
The only reason i know about the court case is that it was re-directed whereas most innocuous looking stuff is returned to sender/binned etc.
If i haven't been receiving their correspondence due to an incorrect address
and it is their error does it matter that they show that they sent it, i.e. is it a defence?
