Hi, my supervisor lent me 2,000 pounds to help me pay for my medical insurance when I was moving to the UK last year to study with her, the plan was for me to pay her back or alternatively pay her back in work helping her with experiments in the lab that had nothing to do with my studies.
I offered her to pay most of the loan off last year and asked several times for her account details but she insisted to leave it like that and that I could just help her out with work and it would be covered. I had been doing extra work but since it was an informal agreement we never discussed, hourly rates or explicitly mentioned the extra work I was doing was going to cover the loan.
Recently I had to change supervisors which led to her asking for the money in full, which I do not have and which she had told me several times that I didn´t have to pay back to her. I tried to talk with her about the work I had done and how many hours I had worked and how much I really tought I owed her, which came down to around 400 pounds and offered to pay it to her immediatly but she is now refusing for me to pay her that amount and claiming that she will also charge me for all the costs of leisure related activities we did together (I am assuming the times she invited me over for dinner, offered to pay for coffee, etc, even though I also paid for coffees, etc.). I am a bit scared she will take the matter to court, is that possible?
