Husband not informing people he's not living at family home

My husband has left the family home a few months ago. I'm divorcing. He has gotten into his own personal debt. I'm sick of people and letters coming here. I'm forwarding them all to where he is living. Is there anything I can do to stop it. I've notified the electoral register and all bills but these are debtors.

I'm in UK. However my husband has took loans out for himself without my knowledge they are in his sole name nothing to do with me. Therefore I'm not liable. The issue is not the loans the problem is he is not making debtors aware he's not living here. This is so they don't bother him. When I've answered door they have left and I've given them his new address. I'm just sick of them coming. I've removed him off electoral roll plus council tax. We have no joint accounts I got rid of it . We are not financially associated now on any credit reference agencies.

You are financially linked until final consent order signed off !

You're not liable for them in that the companies cannot come after you personally if he stops paying.

However, they could come after the house as he owns it in part.

They also could come into play in your financial settlement in your divorce. Especially if he has substantial debts. That's what people are referring to.

Show quote history

They cannot come after the house only his share and that is if there are secured on it which they are not. As for the financial settlement his debts are his debts and I am not responsible. They will not come into my share whatsoever. I am not responsible for what hes gotten into.

Put the letters unopened into a fresh envelope, enclose his new address and send it back to them without a stamp. They'll stop.

Yes I've started to do that. I didn't realise the cost of stamps now 🙄.
