However, any loans over six years old may not still be on the lenders records meaning you may not get a letter. so even if you did have a loan over 6 years old that was eligible you'd still need to have all the paperwork yourself to provide proof of the loan(which I'd guess you haven't as you are asking this question)
thanks chuck,
no, i have lost count of loans/credit cards over the course of time, just thought that these financial bods may have a way of accessing records of old loans etc.
