I'm sorry that you feel persecuted because somebody had the temerity to ask you to pay back the money that you spent, did you think that Christmas had come early or what? You spent it, you pay it back! No wonder the banks interest rates are so high.----I cannot understand why so many answers encourage you to dodge your responsibility. |

Sorry mate your liable for the debt until the day you die.
The only way your debt is written off is if the person or company decide they want to write it off.
The way it works is barclaycard has sold your debt onto another company so you now owe the other company and they are entitled to pursue you through the courts if they want. They may just send debt collectors to your door , they can be pretty persistent and turn up at any hour of the day or night . They can take your property and sell it to recover the debt , they can take your car or anything else of any value (I once knew a guy who did this job.)and when they do they value it really low . They are also entitled to add on any costs they incur in getting recovering the debt....So I am afraid if it is a fact of life that perhaps you need to learn that when you borrow money you need to pay it back.
Don't feel too hard done to as the rest of us hard working bandits who pay all our bills get fed up with all you whingeing selfish good for nothings that expect the rest of the world to pay for your existence. |

I am 99.9% sure that the statute of limitations on debt is 6 years in England and 12 years in Scotland - unless the law has changed since I once enquired about this. Contact the citizens advice bureau, they'll know. |

I believe that legally that after seven years they can not chase you for it, but as you say its six. I know that if you can prove your on a low income they have to set any agreed low amount basically what you can offer as they can not leave you with nothing to live on. They don't take other debts in consideration and it is done on what the government say the minimum you can live on. CAB would be the best place to go, as already been suggested. If you haven't moved and like you say the debt has been moved from one agency to another, you can question why collection has not been requested sooner? i think that can sway decision but it depends on the amount. CAB is best route |

I believe after 6 years they cannot make you pay back the debt, however, if they have sold it to a collection agency which they have and you acknowledge the debt your 6 years starts again!
If you wish to pay back the debt you need to contact CAB and one of the money advisers will go through your financial status and arrange back payment of the debt. |

Did you mean 1999? It is not a joke with banks: they never let you go (trust me, been there, done that ((... How much do u owe? You have to go to the CAB (Citizen Advise Borough) and listen very carefully what they will tell. Wright off dept possible only if you bankrupt and I don't recommend that as an option. IVA- voluntary agreement to pay your dept is the better option. In that case interest is frozen and you have to pay back not that huge amount. Good Luck |

The banks like any other financial institutions have a policy of selling the doubtful debts to the other debt collection agencies, who buy them for a nominal sum and pursue the debtor for the money. Unfortunately, they will pursue you until they collect the money. I suggest that you negotiate to pay by instalment if you can and ask local CAB to help you. Good Luck |
