Consumers are being urged to continue the battle against lenders collecting legally unenforceable debts by Credit Issues after it announced a target of challenging £10 million of consumer debt in 2009. January saw the claims management firm successfully challenge £500,000 of consumer debt. However, despite trying to increase consumer awareness of lender failings, it is issuing a stark warning to consumers over the importance of choosing a firm with a full on site specialist legal team and proven published details of successful cases. Claims management firms must be regulated by the Ministry or Justice and any solicitor used must be regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and it is vital that they should possess the specialist knowledge required and firms should have high level barristers at their disposal.
