Hello. For some reason this thread timed out - apologies I did not see your response as a result.

How much are the arrears?

Do you dispute them?

Hi Peter, I dont dispute them well i do and and I dont but its too time consuming arrears £9,000 im paying the arrears off at £80 per month
Customer: replied 5 months ago.
but as i said im now living and working in Saudi and will not be able to attend court on 2 August

OK. Have you contacted the court to explain that it is not possible to attend?

You could consider asking about attending via telephone.

You could also send a lawyer to represent you, without you being there in person.
