  • Statute barred debt confirmation please

    Firstly, thank you for all the info on here. It's really been helpful in fighting my corner and clearing my name following fraud. However, I still have Lowell insisting on chasing one debt which EE are insisting is mine (it's not). Apart from the apparent initial contract, they have nothing that links me to the account. Someone opened the EE account in my name, took out a load of phone contracts, paid nominal amounts from somewhere else (not my account) registered an address for somewhere else (not my address) and continued to use the contract, pay a bit presumably to allow additional mobiles to be added then stopped paying and racked up the debt.

    Initial contract was 2014, Lowell haven't provided me with any signed contract or any evidence of the account opening. They contacted me 3 years ago, there was a bit of back and forth and they largely have left me alone since until now. I can't get any information out of them or EE because EE are suggesting they can't give me any information as they can't verify me on the account. It's just ridiculous that Lowell are chasing me for this but EE won't even provide me with anything.

    Anyway, Lowell said the account was disconnected in Sept 2018 with the last payment being March 2018 (I can't verify this)

    So my query is, at what point would this become statute barred?
    6 years from start of contract - which I haven't seen but believe to be 2014
    6 years from last payment
    6 years from disconnection
    6 years from another date
    It doesn't because it falls under something else and I've misunderstood


    Second question, Lowell's latest correspondence has inaccurate details but appears to be lining up as a position statement. Is there anything that I should or should not say to them at this stage as I feel as if they will hit the court button if I don't respond and they will hit the court button if I do.
