    The only way a finance company could know about another persons transgressions are if they're linked into your history in your personal credit file or unless the other person had defaulted against that finance company.

    You will be scored on your own personal credit file. If your personal credit file has details of someone elses defaults or CCJ's that affect your credit score you are quite within your rights to consider those statements libelous and sue for damages as long as you can quantify your loss (higher interest rates, etc).

    Blacklisted looks like a term to me, tit.

    Don't talk tulipe. Any party that blacklists a property is leaving themselves wide open to be sued for damages.

    He may not even be able to do that if it is listed with outstanding HP.

    Afraid none of your business Diver, all a landlord has to do before a tenant leaves is to check any outstanding utility bills and council tax and deduct those from the deposit, as in most cases you are not likely to get a forwarding address.

    Having said that, if anyone gets blacklisted against a property address, it makes it even harder for the next occupant to get credit.

    Yeh! never thought of that!!!

    He'll pay off the finance just before moving out

    Of course the finance settlement will only be a little higher than what he gets for the car

    You are missing loads... he could easily have it shipped over to Cyprus/Malta and sell it for good cash. Default on the finance and run away with the dollars

    you know his name and your property address - apply for his credit record and a code will be sent to your property. Either sneak in and get the post, or have it re-directed.

    Or you could just mention it to the local fuzz
