  • Various debts and ccj for council tax

    During 2016 I amounted many debts through pay day Ioan companies, amounting to around £5000. I never paid any instalments to any of them, and ignored all correspondence (I had separated from my wife the year before and went off the rails for a while). I also didn't pay council tax and owe £1000 for that.

    I moved out in October 2016 and stayed with a friend for a while, and since June 2017 i have lived in a shared house.

    I havent informed anyone of one of my new address at this shared house. My bank still has my ex-wife's address.

    Recently she she received a letter from the baillifs addressed to me, regarding the council tax debt. We're on good terms and isn't bothered as I don't live there anymore, and won't speak to anyone who calls except to say I don't live there. I can return any future letters.

    During my tenancy at my previous address I was sent letters indicating their intention to claim a ccj against me for the council tax.

    What are the likely outcomes of my situation? They cannot contact me because they do not know where I live. I am in full time employment at the moment- would they find me through them somehow?

    Unfortunatly I am a 'bury my head in the sand' kind of person, and I'm now concerned about possible implications of ignoring ccjs, especially for council tax. Would it be classed as ignoring a ccj if I'm not received correspondence currently, even though I received one in 2016?

    Your responses will be greatly appreciated.
