My neighbours were repossessed in 1988 and up until 2004 were unaware of any shortfall.
In 2004 they were contacted by Asset Recoveries UK Limited regarding the shortfall and have since this time been paying roughly £100 per month.
Now forgive me for being wrong but this debt would have been statute barred from the 12th anniversary of repossession in 2000 as my neighbours had not heard anything relating to any shortfall. They have been pressured into paying a debt they did not need to do so.
If this is the case I believe it is not possible to un-statute bar a debt. Hence can my neighbours claim back every penny they have paid along with interest at 8%?
