<prompt> Human: Well, hello fellow redditors.Or should I say hola?. I am a brit living in Spain now and I will not be entering the UK ever again... Now I have run up a few bank debts worth just over a 1000 quid on my UK bank account, which is registered to an old address from over a year ago... and I am thinking, should I bother paying them back? And what would the repercussions be if I didnt pay? Would a moneywise owl send me some sound advice?.. Ahh yes I also got a argos card before I left and bought a 4k TV without paying penny 1 for it before I fled the Isle. Will this come back to bite me in the arse?  <response>: They could easily find you in Spain and then youd likely end up with a court judgement against you. Its pretty straightforward to move cases from one EU country to another. It might cause you problems in the future. For such a small amount you may as well pay it off.You also say you will never return to the UK, but you never know what the future holds. Dont burn all your bridges.
