Hello,
I will keep this brief as it is a long winded story that has been going on now since 2007/08. Basically, in 2007/08 someone with the same name as me took out a social fund loan of nearly £1000. By fault of the social/job centre people I was left with this debt from someone else and they started hassling me for it. I managed to sort it (or so i presumed) and was told that it had been dealt with and removed frommy file (this was back in 2010). However, it would appear that they hadn't and I received a letter from a credit agency stating that i owed them the £1000. I contacted the department for work and pensions who told me that this debt had now been passed onto a third party. They have since removed the social fund from my name and i am assured that this is now clear. But they refuse to help with the credit agency, and have actualy told me that it's my personal problem!!
So, i have kept in contact with the credit agency since i received the first letter in feb. To be fair they have given me time to get it sorted...which ran out 4 days ago.
Any advice will be grately received.
Regards.
