I have a colleague who has a debt in Spain on a loan which was borrowed in 2006. He bought a property which he subsequently sold in 2007 and assumed that the loan had been cleared by his solicitor from the proceeds of sale. He says that he has had no contact from the Spanish Bank between that time and a few weeks ago where they allege that the full loan amount is outstanding and are threatening to pursue him for all sums which they say is due as they received nothing from the solicitor who is now no longer in business.
Is there a statute barred period after which this Bank can't pursue him?
