There is also no minimum amount of debt required for a CCJ. So even if you're only behind by one or two months, it's up to your creditor if and when they want to apply for a CCJ.
A CCJ for credit agreements under the Consumer Credit Act must be preceded by a warning letter, such as a default notice or a letter before action, at least 14 days before any action is taken.
A CCJ is regarded as being worse than a default and would show on your credit file for another 6 years from the date it's added. Also, whilst paying down the debt won't directly impact your credit score, lenders may see it as less of a problem and take it into consideration when deciding whether to lend to you.
2. A CCJ is only worth having if there is an intention to use it as a springboard for the next debt recovery step -- (eg) a bailiff, charging order, third party debt order, or a stat demand (if the debt was previously in dispute). So this actually requires some planning and research.
Once a creditor has a county court judgment (CCJ) for a debt, the Limitation Act does not put any time limits on how long they have to enforce that judgment. If your CCJ is more than six years old, and the creditor wants to use enforcement action, they must first get permission of the court.
To set aside a CCJ, you must apply to the court using form N244 and provide evidence that the claim was sent to a previous address. The court will consider your application and decide whether to remove the CCJ from your record.
