Fraudulent accounts and enforcement action

[pt2537]

Hi
Thats a very informative post. Thanks
i am going through same situation.
Big company like Utilita opened an business account on basis of driving licence. I received posts but my wife thought they were just rubbish and chucked them in bin. After 2 months we received bill asking fr payment. It was quite a shock. I approached utilita and put my case to fraud, ombudsman, police but had no help from anywhere. Here i was put in wrong shoes. I was told utilita have all your documents -( fake tenancy agreement of business, driving licence, forged signature ) so i was told they could not help me any further.

i know i have delayed to get help from solicitor bt i cant afford to pay solicitors fees which will go more than the debt. Now i have ccj on head which i have put in court to set aside but along have enforcement order due tomorrow. I have no idea what to do. Should i have to wait for hearing date which i havent received yet or deal with bailiffs?

I dont want anyone knocking on my door and asking fr money which i dont own.

would appreciate ur advice in this matter
thanks
Adam
