Sounds like they're just trying it on Kieran to avoid the payment.

The court process is relatively easy if they ignore it. As said, being a commercial debt means you've a lot more ground to in force it with. I think you'll be OK and I would definitely not have let it go.

Be interested to know the outcome of the court judgement, and how you faired with enforcing it which from my experience, is harder than the court judgement itself!

Been to court??

Kind of. I did some work for a company and didn't get paid. Went through the small claims procedure which is all online and they didn't appeal in the given time, so I won by default.
As I was enforcing the CCJ the company was wound up by BSS for non payment of their account. I got a letter through from the administrators which showed they owed about £80k to various debtors, so I didn't get a penny.

Which actually reminds me, I never did get my revenge.
