If you go permantly they can't trace you as you will be given different details as they contact and stay in touch with you through you british national insurance number. But be carefull remember when you applied for the student loan you signed the forms which asked you to declare if you were moving abroad, this acts as a binding contract so if you want to do it legally phone student loans up and inform them where your moving and establish a different method to repay the loan.

They'll be there, waiting Mwaaaa haaa haaa haaa (cue ominous thunder)!

Seriously though, you should ask your loan provider what the best way to continue payments from overseas. When I went to England for two years on a working holiday visa, I was able to simply mail personal cheques (in pounds sterling) back to my bank account in Canada and my loans were automatically deducted from there.

You have to pay them no matter what. You are responsible for it, unless you want a big negative in your credit.

you would still have to pay them. they will find you if you don't and then sentence you to a prison term. i had a friend leave the country with debt and he spent a year in prison.

If you do not settle & go the guarators will be hauled-up and the collateral surety, will be taken over, by the lender.
