In 2013 Charterhouse Claims did a PPI claimback for me for PPI paid on a loan and a credit card. Claim was successful, and the money recieved was paid off the still outstanding balances. Charterhouse then sent their invoice. I was unable to make a lump sum payment but repeatedly offered weekly & monthly amounts. All were refused (unfortunately I don't have proof of this).
The balance was then passed to Carrick Read Insolvency in 2014. From june or july of this year until this last week I have paid them £10 per week (i have bank statments as proof). CR maintained throughout that Charterhouse refused my offer of payment, although I maintained the payment schedule and the amount outstanding has overall reduced.
CR then informed me in October that court action was being brought by charterhouse. I recieved nothing in the post, and on emailing CR I recieved the forms I needed at the last minute - the cut off date for the forms to be completed and returned was the next day. Unfortunately the forms didn't get there in time and a default CCJ was recorded. At this point payments were still being made to CR each week, none have been missed.
On Thursday 4th December I recieved a Notice of Enforcement from High Court Enforcement Group stating that £xxxx is outstanding and I have to pay in full (not possible) or make a payment arrangement (this is my preferred option) with their Enforcement Agent (bailiff?) by December 13th.
Today I completed and returned form N245 directly to the court offering payments of £xx per week. I also emailed CR to advise them of the offer i am making (this offer is higher than the amount currently paid).
What do I do now? Do I wait for a response from court? What happens if the enforcement officer comes before i get an answer from the court? If I make a payment arrangement can they still take goods? And would they then be able to force entry (my fear is that I make a payment arrangement, stick to it,but still come home one day to find my front door forced open and my belongings gone. Can they actually do that?)
Sorry for rambling! Any advice would be much appreciated
