He defaulted - this is neither theft nor fraud. Defaulting on a non government debt is not a crime. |

Re: Managing UK debt from Canada
It must be very tempting to leave debts unpaid in the UK if your credit history does not follow you.

I used to do this regularly in England and I now act for those wishing to enforce in Canada. |

It is relatively easy and cost efficient to chase people around the world for payments of debts, particularly England to Canada. Don`t assume they won`t find you in Canada and, when they do, you will have a judgment in Canada as well which will affect your credit history in Canada.

Is there a time limit on how old a debt is before it is written off - I seem to have 7 years in my mind for some reason but that may have nothing whatsoever to do with debt :blink: |

We ALSO have debt which we are paying off, which is what this question relates to..... |

They aren't going to come after you ten years later. Your debt has been written off long ago.

Re: Managing UK debt from Canada
If this is becoming a "debt confessions" thread, I'll be honest, I've not yet informed SLC about my move to Canada, and I left behind around £30,000 of student debt.
I'll get round to paying it off eventually though I'm sure... |
