Have you or have you not attempted to raise funds as suggested upthread? A credit card or small bank loan will solve this issue for you. Most people can get the former.

The first payment (£1,560.30) is due 8-September, according to your post 55.
So that gives you tomorrow (Saturday) to look for a suitable low-value (sub £5000) credit bank account -
1) look at consumer websites, i.e. MoneySavingExpert, CompareTheMarket.
2) contact your bank tomorrow (phone banking or web chat) and ask what credit account / agreement they can offer you - preferably one with 0% repayment interest first 12 months)

You need to start taking ownership of what you've caused to yourself. The rest of us here can only offer what might assist.
You need to act - and now.

Somewhere, not in London
Also holding the title "Chartered" usually comes with some level of professional standards that need to be upheld. Fraud would not go down well with most if not all professional institutions.

I’d avoid the court if you possibly can. But I do understand that money can be hard to come by.
But do check out the sort of options @Sun Chariot mentions asap. That will be time well spent

Obviously these are large sums but trust me as your career and earnings potential increases they will seem manageable even if you have to take on debt now.

You are far better borrowing the money from credit card/personal loan/overdraft and making minimum payment on that for a few months IMO than defaulting on paying GTR and getting a criminal record which is going to hang over you for 11 years in your sector.

Obviously don't default on anything, but unless your credit is complete trash then that is a far better option.
