What happens if I ignore a claim?
If you ignore this claim the claimant can apply for judgment to be entered against you. If this claim results in Judgment being entered against you details will be entered in a public register, the Register of County Court Judgments. They will then be passed to credit reference agencies, which will supply them to finance companies and others seeking information on your financial standing. This will make it difficult for you to get credit. A list of credit reference agencies is available from Registry Trust Limited, 3rd Floor, 12 Carthusian Street, London EC1M 6EB.
If you fail to make payment under the terms of a Judgment order entered against you the claimant may apply to the court for a warrant of execution or other methods of enforcement to secure payment.
