Old debt with no contact
If you have old debt and have not been contacted by the creditors for several years, seek advice before you get in contact or make a payment.
The debt may be 'statue barred' and legally unenforceable. This means you may not need to pay.
Loan sharks
A loan shark is someone who lends money but doesn’t have a legal licence to do so.
