Troubled flooring chain owes nearly £8m to around 21,000 customers, with most unlikely to be refunded.
That's according to the directors’ statement of affairs, but sources close to the situation have suggested the final sum of money owed is likely to be "considerably" higher.
The company fell into administration in July, which resulted in 1,500 job losses and the closure of 273 stores. Some stores, including the one in Aberdeen, were taken over by competitors.
Carpetright's owner, Nestware Holdings, is owned by British hedge fund Meditor, which itself is headed up by poker player Talal Shakerchi.
Mr Shakerchi has been questioned as to why he did not use some of his poker winnings - which amount to more than $18m (£13.62m) to pay some creditor debts.
In December, Mr Shakerchi transferred Carpetright's IP rights to Nestware in exchange for a cash injection worth £12m. He had to pay £5m to Newstware for Carpetright's IP.
Meditor and Shakerchi were contacted for comment. PwC, the administrator, declined to comment.
