Hi there. Hope everyone is well. Advice please. For 6 months up to Jan22 I co-rented a flat. The other person had been there for years. We paid the rent to the agency and I paid her half of all utilities. I’ve just found out that she hadn’t been paying some of the bills and a court order was issued against us in Jan. I knew nothing at all about this so didn't have the chance to go to court. She has moved and the court doesn't know where she is. They found me at my new address and the collection company is writing to me to pay all of it. So I’m going to have to pay twice and her share. Then try and have the judgement removed. I know I was too trusting. I actually didn't live in the flat for 3 of the 6 months as she made me feel so uncomfortable and stole some possessions. Any advice please?
