HI,
I was wondering if someone can help me please.
I am living in Australia and waiting for my PR to come through. I have over £20'000 debt in the UK. I stopped paying my debt in the UK as I couldn't afford it as I was out of work and had a baby. It then went to a collections company which I managed to set up a payment plan, everything was fine. It's now been passed to another collections agency, don't know why, so I am dealing with them. I still cant afford to pay this debt back.
I'm being told now by several people not to bother paying it back at all! They are saying that as the debt is in the UK and I'm over here there is nothing that they can do and to stop paying it. The debt is un my mums address so if debt collectors do come they cant take anything because nothing is mine. The collections company don't know I'm here and still think I'm in the UK.
Do I tell the collections company I'm living over here? Do I stop paying? What do I do?
Thank you
