Re: arr info needed on a ccj

Who is telling you this?? Are they actually bailiffs or are they a debt collection agency?? Normally interest can only be added to a CCJ if this part of the judgement. We could do with more information about the CCJ and about the original debt in order to be able to help.

Re: arr info needed on a ccj

You would have recieved a copy of the CCJ. What does this actually say about adding interest and charges to the judgement??

Re: arr info needed on a ccj

If, like me, you have hidden from your CCJ's (lots of us have so don't worry) I would assume the court must have a copy. Maybe someone with more experience than me can advise on where to get a copy of it if you haven't got it - I know mine were shredded!

We do need to know what it said though as it's unusual to be able to add interest. They are however permitted to add bailiffs fees - are you sure that's not what they're doing?
