I have had an issue with my trust deed I paid the final payment to my trust deed in December last year and in May received my notice of discharge which states that no further contribution is required. Since then I was contacted by the bank about ppi that I had on a business loan and have awarded me ยฃ2k at the end of the letter it states that if you are/we're in a an insolvency agreement to contact them which I have. The trust deed company have came back and said I need to send the money to them. One thing is this has confused me as when I spoke to them back in May once I received my letter I asked them as I was thinking of selling my house and asked if any equity would need to go to the trust deed they said no and any money would be mine. I haven't sold the house but on a conversation I had with them today I made this point and they said if I had sold the house the money from that would need to go to my trust deed.
This has baffled and annoyed me as I am nearly a year from paying my final payment and I am still no further forward. The ppi money is not my main concern as yes I am still skint and scraping the barrel and just been hit with a massive child tax credit over payment bill from 3 years but that would definitely made a dent in that but I feel no further forward than I was when I entered the trust deed and extremely glad I didn't sell the house.
Hi iainvr4.
I don't think that the equity from a sale of your home would have gone to your trustee if sold after you've been discharged. You're not the first person to report having been told that here, but we've seen no cases of it actually happening that I can remember.
The situation with PPI may be different though. If your trustee hasn't been discharged yet I'm afraid you're almost certainly not going to see that money.
By discharging you from your Trust Deed and removing the inhibition which was registered against you (this has to be removed prior to discharge), the trustee is accepting that they no longer have any interest in your home. They couldn't then go back and seek any funds from you selling it subsequently.
