      For the debt to be Statute Barred you mustn't have acknowledged the debt in writing over the last 6 years and not made any
      payments to the account in the last 6 years (from Default Date). You can include point 7, but it may not be 'Statute Barred.

        Submitted my defence.

        I've left in the statute barred comment as the SAR revealed that a bill was due by 23rd December 2019. Adding on another month for it to be overdue puts me in statute barred territory. I will be back once I hear more. Thanks for your help so far echat11

            Hi,

            Im back. After being away for a week. I have received two letters:

            1. From the court to say my defence has been sent to the claimant and they have 28 days to decide if they wish to proceed

            2. From BWLegal dated 26th March and received yesterday a notice of intention to proceed

            The letter details the client, balance due, client ref, original creditor, claim no, energy type, supply period and supply address

            It states the client is happy to give me until 16th April to settle the claim in full, or agree a payment plan.

            It does not include the documentation I requested as part of the defence

              1. From the court to say my defence has been sent to the claimant and they have 28 days to decide if they wish to proceed

              That's standard.

              2. From BWLegal dated 26th March and received yesterday a notice of intention to proceed

              The letter details the client, balance due, client ref, original creditor, claim no, energy type, supply period and supply address

              Update if they send anything or you receive any other correspondence.
