My ex-boyfriend owes me a large sum of money and is refusing to pay me back. What can I do?
My ex-boyfriend owes me over £13,600 and is refusing to pay me back. I have bank statements proving that I lent him this money to pay off his debts. I have today written him a second letter requesting this money. I am unemployed and pregnant. What else can I do to get this money back?
The bank statements prove that you gave him the money. They do not prove that the money was given in the form of a loan as opposed to a gift. You will need to find documentary evidence to confirm the terms of the loan agreement, in particular that the monies are now repayable under the terms of that loan.
If your letters to your ex-boyfriend are not working you can sue him in the County Court. If you have any household insurance policies you may find that they include legal expenses cover that will pay for the legal costs of this claim. If not you can issue the proceedings yourself. If you go to your local County Court they will give you the appropriate forms and may help you complete them. If you meet the necessary financial limits you will not be required to pay the usual Court issue fee either. If the Court cannot help you complete the forms, your local Citizens Advice Bureau will assist.
