How do I find out who the pursuer is?
You will need to contact the Sheriff Court that issued your decree and provide them with the case number. They can provide you with the contact information for the Pursuer which will help you to contact them to find out more information and make a payment.
If you are unaware of the case number, this can be obtained via a search on TrustOnline.
I’ve paid the pursuer…now what?
If you’ve paid the pursuer, you will need to ask them to provide you with proof of payment so that our Register can be updated.
We require a letter from the Pursuer on letterheaded paper (where possible) which states the following:
• The defenders name and address the decree was recorded against
• Case Number
• Court Name
• Amount of decree
• Date Paid in Full
Your original proof of payment can be sent by post to:
Registry Trust Ltd

You must ensure that a return address in included for us to send the confirmation back to you.
Or by email to info@registry-trust.org.uk
For a search of our Register confirming the decree has been updated, you will need to submit a cheque for £6 made payable to Registry Trust Ltd, for each named person or business at a specified address.
Alternatively, electronic payments can be made to:
Lloyds Bank Plc.

Please ensure that your case number and the defendant name has been noted on the electronic transfer.
We may need to contact the Pursuer on your behalf if the proof of payment is insufficient.
My pursuer has refused to provide proof of payment – what can I do?
Pursuers are under no legal obligation to provide proof of payment once payment has been made.
However, if you provide us with any evidence you have confirming that the debt has been paid, we will attempt to contact the pursuer on your behalf.
Your evidence can be sent by post to:
Registry Trust Ltd

If we do not receive a response from the pursuer after 28 days, the Register may be updated at a Manager’s discretion based on the evidence you have provided.
