Paying the Claimant
Who do I Pay?
You pay the claimant not the court. The claimant may have a representative such as a collection agency or a solicitor so you pay the debt amount to them. The name and address for payment is clearly shown on the judgement form.
When paying the debt always use a method that will give you proof of payment. You can send a cheque or postal order. Do not send cash.
Send your name, address, claim number and claimants reference number (on the CCJ) and keep a copy of any letters you send.
Keep a record of any payments made. Include date, the amount payed and record the amount owed after every payment. Also safely file your proof of payment.
You must pay by the date or dates on the judgement. Allow at least four working days. If the payment is late or you are behind the claimant can ask the court to take steps to make you pay the debt, even if you are only one day behind.
